Welding Repair of Aluminium Alloy 6082 T6 by TIG Welding Process

Article Preview

Abstract:

This work focuses on welding repair of aluminium alloy 6082 T6 by TIG welding process. Two types of filler, 4043 and 5356 were used. A comparison at I= 120A,140A, welding speed 20cm/min and gas flow rate 15 L/min was studied. Physical characteristics, macrostructure and microstructure at weld metal and Heat Affected Zone (HAZ) were investigated. Which at 140A can welding repair. The parameter 140A have complete melting and fail area at HAZ and mechanical properties more than 120A.
