ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill

• Do not touch electrically live parts or electrode with skin or wet


clothing.

• Insulate yourself from work and ground.

Close fitting protective clothing, a leather apron &


spats must be worn.

Rings & jewellery should NOT be worn while using any


welding equipment

Welding Process:

Proper welding depends on the following factors:

• Selection of WPS based on job to be welded .


• Correct Edge preparation of work to be welded based on WPS
• Selection of the correct electrode/wire based on WPS
• Correct welding current based on WPS
• By maintaining Proper arc length
• By maintaining Proper travel speed
• By maintaining Proper angle of electrode or wire

Types of Joints:
The predominant joints used in most of the welding
processes are

• Butt Joint
• Fillet Joint

Arc Length Parameters :
The electrical stick-out is the distance between the end of the contact tip and the end
of the wire. It is either called STICK OUT or ARC LENGTH

Concave Fillet Weld :

 A fillet in which the contour of the weld is below a straight line


joining the toes of the weld.
 Concave fillet weld of a specified leg length has a throat thickness less than the
effective throat thickness for that size fillet.
 This means that, when a concave fillet weld is used, the throat thickness must not
be less than the effective measurement.

Convex Fillet Weld :

 A fillet weld in which the contour of the weld metal lies outside a
straight line joining the toes of the weld.

 A convex fillet weld of specified leg length has a throat thickness


in excess of the effective measurement.

Effect of Travel Speed :

Torch angle for Fillet Weld :

When welding fillet welds, the torch should


be positioned at an
angle of 45° from the bottom plate.

When welding Multi layer fillet welds, the


torch should be positioned and tilted at an
angle of ±15° from the vertical plane.

BUTT WELD:

1/20/19
© SCHWING Stetter (India) Private Limited
When welding butt welds, the torch should be
positioned within the
centre of the groove and positioned at an angle
of 90⁰

When welding butt welds of Multi layer , the


torch should be positioned within the
centre of the groove and tilted at an angle of
±15° from the vertical
plane.

The travel speed will influence the weld bead profile and the reinforcement
height.

 If the travel speed is too slow, a wide weld bead with excessive
rollover will result.

 Conversely, if the travel speed is too high, a narrow weld bead with
excessive Reinforcement will result.

WELD DEFECTS :

The major weld defects are classified as ,

1) Porosity
2) Weld cracks
3) Lack of penetration
4) Excess penetration
5) Undercut
6) Under fill
7) Excess concavity
8) Excess Convexity
9) Burn through
10) Lack of fusion
11) Excess weld reinforcement

POROSITY
Porosity − small cavities or holes resulting from gas pockets in weld metal.

POSSIBLE CAUSES CORRECTIVE ACTION


Oil, heavy rust, scale etc on plate Check hoses ,gas valves are without leak.
Small nozzle Use fresh and dry electrodes
Shielding problem , wind Use preheating / warm up work piece

Welding over slag from covered electrode Store the Electrodes properly

Set correct Gas flow parameter No Gas flow


,Damaged gas hose, excessive gas flow

WELD CRACK

POSSIBLE CAUSES CORRECTIVE ACTION


Joint is not Clean Pre-heat to remove moisture content

Improper Fit up Reduce the heat input

Poor quality of material being welded Adjust root opening

1/20/19

LACK OF PENETRATION:
shallow fusion between weld metal and base metal.

POSSIBLE CAUSES CORRECTIVE ACTION


Weld joint too narrow Use proper joint geometry & root gap .

Incorrect weld preparation Reduce root face height.

Incorrect Welding current parameter Use wider root opening.

Incorrect torch angle. Follow correct welding current and technique.

1/20/19

EXCESS PENETRATION
Excessive Penetration − weld metal melting through base metal and hanging underneath
weld.

POSSIBLE CAUSES CORRECTIVE ACTION


Welding Current too high Set proper Current

Travel speed too low. Use Appropriate travel speed

Root gap too wide. Proper Joint Fit up to be used

Root face too thin

UNDERCUT

POSSIBLE CAUSES CORRECTIVE ACTION

Incorrect current and voltage . Use the correct welding current and voltage

Travel speed too low Use Appropriate travel speed

Avoid the excessive heating of base metal

Make the arc length proper

UNDER FILL

POSSIBLE CAUSES CORRECTIVE ACTION

Improper Welding voltage & current parameters Set proper Current and voltage parameters

Increased Travel speed. Use Appropriate travel speed

Increase the layer of runs so as fill the weld gap

EXCESS CONCAVITY

POSSIBLE CAUSES CORRECTIVE ACTION

Welding Current too low.. Set proper Current

Travel speed very high Use Appropriate travel speed

Improper Joint preparation Proper Joint Fit up to be used

1/20/19

EXCESS CONVEXITY

POSSIBLE CAUSES CORRECTIVE ACTION

Welding Voltage too High. Proper voltage to be maintained

Travel speed too low Appropriate travel speed to be used

Weld joint too narrow. Proper Weaving technique to be used

Excessive electrode extension

BURN THROUGH

Burn-Through − weld metal melting completely through base metal resulting in holes
where no metal remains.

POSSIBLE CAUSES CORRECTIVE ACTION


Welding current and voltage too high Use appropriate welding parameters

Travel speed too low. maintain steady travel speed

Decrease width of root opening Proper Fit up to be done

LACK OF FUSION
Failure of weld metal to fuse completely with base metal or a preceding weld bead.

POSSIBLE CAUSES CORRECTIVE ACTION


Incorrect welding current and voltage Proper Welding parameters to be used

Welding over convex bead. Correct electrode angle

Improper angle & position of torch Plan the welding passes for proper fusion

EXCESS WELD REINFORCEMENT

POSSIBLE CAUSES CORRECTIVE ACTION

Welding voltage too high Use optimum voltage

Travel speed too low. Use appropriate Travel speed

1/20/19

SPATTERS
Scattering of molten metal particles that cool to solid form near weld bead.

POSSIBLE CAUSES CORRECTIVE ACTION


Poor welding techniques Hold proper arc length

Incorrect weld parameters Adjust for proper welding parameters
