Investigation on the Micro-structure and Mechanical Properties of Heat Affected Zone for GMAW in IS-2062
Keywords:
GMAW, HAZ, IS-2062, Welding Current, Hardness, Tensile StrengthAbstract
There are various categories of joining processes and welding is one such method used by a majority of fabricators in the manufacturing sector. Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW), popularly known as Metal Inert Gas (MIG) Welding, is one of the most traditional arc welding methods that make use of a consumable electrode to produce the weld. The most effective feature of GMAW is its intense heat source. Since, this method does not involve any use of flux, there are less chances of slag entrapment and high quality welds can be produced at a faster rate. With this experiment, we will be differentiating between the varying effects of controlling parameters over the heat affected zone (HAZ) due to GMAW for a low carbon steel specimen. Properties such as hardness, brittleness and tensile strength in the HAZ of IS-2062 and its relation with the micro-structural changes caused due to heat input have been a focus of this work.
