    JERSON G. RUBRCIO JR.


    OBJECTIVES:

    1. Identify and understand the essentials of


    welding; and
    2. Determine the Acceptable Weld profile.
    TERMS AND DEFINITION

    WELDING

    A joining process that produces coalescence of


    materials by heating to a melting point, with or without
    the application of pressure and with or without the use
    of filler metal.
    TERMS AND DEFINITION

    COALESCENCE

    The growing together or growth into one body of the


    materials being welded.
    TERMS AND DEFINITION

    ELECTRODE

    Metal rod which conduct a current from the


    electrode holder to the base metal.
    TERMS AND DEFINITION

    BASE METAL

    The metal or alloy that is welded, brazed, soldered,


    or cut
    TERMS AND DEFINITION

    FUSION WELDING

    The melting together of filler metal and metal, or of


    base metal only, to produce a weld.
    TERMS AND DEFINITION

    ARC

    The flow of the electric current from the tip of the


    electrode to the base metal being welded.
    TERMS AND DEFINITION

    DEPOSITION RATE

    The amount of filler metal deposited in any welding


    process fated in pounds per hour.
    TERMS AND DEFINITION

    STRING BEAD

    A weld bead made with very little rod manipulation.


    TOOLS, MATERIALS AND
    EQUIPMENT
    The tools, materials and equipment must be
    appropriate to the job you are doing. Make
    sure the safety of the tools, materials and
    equipment in every task.
    Following are the tools, materials and
    equipment needed:
    MATERIALS

    CARBON STEEL PLATE CARBON STEEL PIPE


    ELECTRODES

    •E6011 3.2 mm(1/8inch) for Root Pass


    •E7018 3.2 mm(1/8inch) for Filling Pass, Capping
    EQUIPMENT

    Portable Grinder
    An angle grinder, also known as a side grinder or disc grinder, is a handheld
    power tool used for grinding (abrasive cutting) and polishing.
    WELDING MACHINE

    Welding Machine
    a device used to join materials together. Welding machines produce heat
    that melts metal parts so that these parts can be joined. Thus, when it cools, it becomes
    a fixed and resistant joint.
    Essentials to obtain quality weld

    A. Choosing the right electrode


    1. Kind of the base metal
    2. Type of Welding equipment
    3. Dimensions and design of parts
    4. Joint preparation and set-up
    5. Welding position
    6. Specification and Service Condition
    7. Practicability of heat treatment
    8. Cost limits
    Essentials to obtain quality weld

    B. Current requirement
    The heat liberated at the arc is directly proportional to the arc
    voltage and the intensity of the current. Since the arc voltage under
    ordinary condition depends on the arc length, which ideally should be
    held constant, the current or amperage used is therefore the main
    factor in determining the heat input, which in turn effects the
    condition of the weldment.
    At high current values the hotter arc will cause a larger area and
    deeper portion of the work piece to be melted and the electrode to melt
    faster, giving a deeper penetration and faster welding speed.
    However, too high current will cause harmful overheating of the base
    metal with undercutting or possibility of burn-through for thin work
    pieces.
    The amperage to be used depends on:

    1. Kind of Electrode
    2. Size of Electrode
    3. Thickness of plates
    4. Welding Position
    5. Arc length
    6. Travel speed
    7. Work Angle
