the cool boundary of the arc. Also, the arc column continuously loses the charge carriers by radial migration to the cool boundary of the arc and therefore, imposing a greater requirement of potential for maintaining appropriate charge carriers between the electrode and weld plate.
The voltage principally determines the shape of the weld bead cross section and its external appearance. Increasing the welding voltage with constant current and welding speed produces flatter, wider, less penetrated weld beads and tends to reduce the porosity caused by rust or scale on steel. Higher voltage also bridges an excessive root opening when fit-up is poor. Increase in arc voltage also increases the size of droplets and hence decreases the number of droplets.

These characteristics are important to assure that the weld joint is properly filled, with a minimum of defects, particularly in multi-pass weld-ments. In this case, if the bead height is too great, it becomes very difficult to make subsequent weld passes that will have good fusion. The more peaked and narrow the weld bead, the greater the chance that poor fusion may occur. The weld bead characteristics may be altered via both size and shape. In order to change weld bead size, of weld metal deposited per linear foot (m) of the weld-ment must be changed. Welding current and travel speed are the welding parameters primarily used to control weld bead …show more content…
For example a typical 10W laser can have peak power of the order of 5 kW. This is possible because the laser energy is delivered in a very short pulse. Peak power can be calculated as Pulse energy divided by pulse width. A pulse that has 1 Joule of energy delivered in 1 msec, will have a peak power of 1 kW. Keep in mind that the calculated value is the average for the pulse duration and actual peak power could be even greater since energy is not uniformly delivered over the duration of the pulse.

(b) Gap
Gap is the distance between the glass and the work-piece
(c) Laser speed Higher welding speed reduces the heat input to the base material leading to less volume of the base material melted. As mentioned earlier, the weld strength increases with increase in volume of the base material that is melted.
(c) Lens
It means the focus length of lens. Focus length is measure in mm.
(d) Defocus
Laser welding is a kind of high-energy welding. The defocus reflects the energy between the laser and the blanks. At the focus, the energy density is the highest. With the increase or decrease of the defocus, the energy density will be reduced.

Coherent light is produced by a laser, or light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation. Many people believe that a laser is a source of energy; however, it is only a converter of energy. Lasers are used in many different fields and can be used in many applications. One of the most impressive versions of the laser is the hologram.

Warm Bodies Book by Isaac Marion If you haven’t read the book and would like to, STOP READING NOW! I LITERALLY SPOIL THE WHOLE BOOK! Synopsis Warm Bodies by Isaac Marion is not your average zombie book. In most books you are usually frightened by zombies and fear for the living characters’ life but in this book it is the exact opposite: you sympathize for the zombie.
Normally, if one would need to buy a laser diode and photodiode of a specific wavelength (1550nm or 1310nm), then it had to be bought internationally. This would have taken a long time to get. There were limited amount of laser diodes and photodiodes found in the lab, as some of these laser diodes and photodiodes cost around R2000.00 each. These components are very sensitive to electrostatic shock. By taking the cost into consideration, the laser diodes and photodiodes should be used with care.
Creating larger grain boundaries makes the steel more ductile due to there being less paths for dislocations on the boundaries. The grain boundaries are caused by a dislocation. When there is an extra plane of atoms, or a plane of missing atoms, a gap is created causing the grain boundaries. Pearlite, as shown in figure 1 picture B, is caused when the steel is annealed. Pearlite has multiple layers that consist of ferrite and cementite.
Firefighter Flashlights Firefighters all over the world depend on several tools to fight fires, keep themselves safe, and protect others from harm. One of the tools they depend on is their flashlight. Firefighter flashlights must meet the standards that are required to do their jobs. The light output must be enough for them to be able to see through thick smoke, and they must hold up under high temperatures. If not, it could jeopardize their safety and the safety of others.
“A document providing the required welding variables for a specific application to assure repeatability by properly trained welders and welding operators” (SFLC Std Spec 5000). Letting the Damage Control Rating perform welding operations would increase the knowledge of the Coast Guard and give our junior members the experience they will need to be successful in their trade. This will in turn cost less money and result in fewer casualties. Most importantly, many or even most members who go DC chose the rating for the hands on work and abilities to weld. Giving them back something they joined the Coast Guard to do, will most importantly boost moral which in turn creates and better work environment for the Coast Guard as a
Welding is a great job but not many people know what welding is or how it work. According to Thomas net welding is the process of joining metal together with heat welders can work on many kind of structures such as mobile homes, pipes, steel reinforcement and others. Because welding is a relatively easy manufacturing process and provide a great deal of strength (Thomas).To become a welder you need four skills the first skill you need is problem solving because welder must be exceptional problem solver who pay attention to details. They have to spot flaws in materials and designs troubleshoot broken areas and know to fix parts or equipment. The second skill math and science welders constantly use their knowledge of fundamental science and math
The career of welding all started with people trying to find out ways to join two pieces together. The career began because people needed ways to join two pieces known as welding. Welding goes way back to the Bronze age by Egyptians and people of the eastern Mediterranean (“The History of Welding”). The career of welding has changed quite significantly since the Bronze age. In the 1920s they began making electric welding machines.
Never judge a book by it’s cover, but that's all people do these days is judge, judge, judge. Some may say welding is a dangerous, unpredictable, a harmful thing to participate in. Some might even ponder on the word “Weld” and think if they know what it is. But only if you've done it then you will never know what it feels like (or what it is), the rush of adrenalin and the art it can create. People who weld learn to be themselves, they become more alert and welding can help with further career choices.
The welding program only takes 7 months to complete, where in other schools it would take about 2 years. That is one of the advantages of going to Tulsa Welding School the time it saves you and the quicker you get go out and start working. Tulsa Welding School used to be located only in Tulsa, Oklahoma but this past year they decided to make a school in Houston, Texas. That’s another reason i would like to attend Tulsa Welding School in Houston because its only about an hour away from where I
Safety is the number one consideration when it comes to jobs like welding. Welding can be very hazardous to a welder if he or she is not wearing the proper safety gear or taking the proper safety procedures. When welding a number of things could go wrong from explosions and gases and fumes to electrical shocks, burns and more. This paper will describe welding hazards and procedures that can be taken to avoid them. One of the main safety hazards of welding is fumes and gases.
Heat stress is a condition in which the increase in core body temperature overwhelms the body’s homeostatic thermoregulation abilities, thus producing and absorbing more heat than the body could dissipate [1]. This results in a wide spectrum of heat-related illnesses, ranging from minor conditions such as heat cramps and heat exhaustion to the more severe condition known as heat stroke. Heat stroke is defined as a core body temperature of beyond 40.60C, commonly associated with the dysfunction of the Central Nervous System (CNS) and the failure of multiple organ systems, which may ultimately result in disability or death. [2] Heat stress can be categorized into two different entities: classical and exertional. Classical or environmental heat
My overall favorite type of welding is “stick welding”. This type of welding has been around for more than 100 years. Stick welding, which is also known as shielded metal arc welding, is a type of welding that uses a stick electrode. This type of welding doesn’t cost much to operate and has minimal equipment. Stick electrodes come in many different sizes.
