Preliminary Study of Effect of Parameters in Submerged Arc Welding

Ravinder Pal Singh

Abstract


Submerged arc welding is a manufacturing process which is much preferred for acquiring good quality welds at the higher production rate. It is necessary to understand the influence of input process parameters to achieve the welds of desired weld bead geometry. The weld metal properties are significantly affected by input parameters of the process. The weld bead geometry can be further used to assess the weld metal properties. Therefore, preliminary investigation has been made on influence of welding input parameters on weld bead geometry.
