  • Abstract:
  • Aluminium alloys are second most widely used material after steel for various industrial applications. Tungsten Inert Gas welding is one of the most important techniques for welding Aluminium alloy. Voltage, current, and welding speed, shielding gas flow rate are the key process parameters having significant effect on the quality, mechanical and microstructural properties of the welded joint. Filler material selection is also an important parameter in TIG welding process, because the chemical composition of the filler material significantly influences the mechanical properties of the welded joint. For attaining a sound weld, composition of the filler material should match with that of base material. In this paper the influence of different types of filler material on microstructural and mechanical properties of TIG welded aluminium alloy are being reviewed.
