Sensitivity Analysis for Process Parameters in Cladding of Austenitic Stainless Steel by Pulsed Metal Inert Gas Welding Process

Abstract:

In recent scenario, the automation in weld cladding process has a challenging task for most of the industries like automotive, petrochemical and food processing industries. Because to achieve the best quality of the weld clad bead geometry during automated process it is important to have complete control over the selected process parameters. The cladding process enhances the base material properties. Therefore, it is essential to predict the relationship between the process parameters and response the second order polynomial regression equation has to be developed. It makes more effectiveness of automated weld cladding processes. Palani and Murugan [1] developed a mathematical model for a flux cored arc welding process using an RSM method to study the direct effects and interaction effects of process parameters on clad bead geometry.
