    This document discusses cracks and defects occurring in steel rims during the welding and forming process. It identifies the most defective rim types based on plate thickness and percentage elongation. The reasons for defects are listed as thickness reduction, welding cracks, and heat-affected zone cracks due to improper welding parameters, wire selection, low grinding thickness, and cooling cycle. The proposed solution is to select proper welding parameters based on the relationships between parameters and plate thickness, material composition, and mechanical properties, as well as using the appropriate grinding thickness, cooling cycle, and production methods.

    Original Description:

    Variation of the quality of welded metal (MS) wheels with material properties

    Original Title
