Abstract EN
We investigated the effect of welding parameters on ultimate tensile strength of structural steel, ST37-2, welded by Metal Active Gas welding.
A fractional factorial design was used for determining the significance of six parameters: wire feed rate, welding voltage, welding speed, travel angle, tip-to-work distance, and shielded gas flow rate.
A regression model to predict ultimate tensile strength was developed.
Finally, we verified optimization of the process parameters experimentally.
We achieved an optimum tensile strength (558 MPa) and wire feed rate, 19 m/min, had the greatest effect, followed by tip-to-work distance, 7 mm, welding speed, 200 mm/min, welding voltage, 30 V, and travel angle, 60°.
Shield gas flow rate, 10 L/min, was slightly better but had little effect in the 10–20 L/min range.
Tests showed that our regression model was able to predict the ultimate tensile strength within 4%.
