Gas Welding Defects
definition
gas welding technique is a method of welding used in the work of metal
connections.techniques commonly used technique, and forward movement to the
left or right or backward movement techniques.
Lack of penetration
Lack of fusion
Poor appearance
Under cut
Porosity
Crack in weld
causes of defects
Lack of penetration
advance the cause and source distance is too thick
.point 'v' is too narrow
.pore size of the nozzle shall be in accordance with the thickness of the metal
Lack of fusion
causes of defects
.welding angle is between 60-70 degrees, while the rod angle is 30-40
degrees addition,
.Basic metals melted first and then input adder rod weld puddles in the
middle
Poor apparence
causes of defects
welding speed is too fast
blowgun nozzle distance is not stable
-use the blowpipe nozzle hole according to the thickness of the metal
UNDERCUT
- causes of defects
welding position is wrong
Excessive heat
How to overcome
proper welding angles between 60-70 degrees
- causes of defects
metal surface is not clean
Excessive heat
How to overcome
clean metal surfaces
control the distance between the end of the blowpipe nozzle with the
workpiece
use the correct size of the blowpipe, in accordance with the thickness of the
metal
cracks in weld
- causes of defects
supply connections are incorrect
Insufficient pre-heat
causes of defects
-no strong connection
How to overcome
- all the metal to be welded nails first
causes of defects
no strong connection
causes of defects
There are many types of defects that can occur depending on the material and welding
process. Types of defects include cracks, distortion, gas inclusions (porosity), non-metallic
inclusions, lack of fusion, incomplete penetration, lamellar tearing, and undercutting.
How to overcome
welding speed must be properly
