A Study on the Development of High Deposition Automatic Vertical Welding of Erection Stage in Shipbuilding

Welding work in pre-erection or erection stage of shipbuilding construction to be carried out in flat and vertical upward position mostly and Electrogas welding(EGW) is actively applied especially for vertical butt joint of thicker steel plate recently. In this study considered how to develope and improve mechanical properties of weld metal and HAZ in high heat input welding processes such as EGW and Electroslag welding(ESW) with its welding equipment in order to extend the application range to the longitudinal members and hatch coaming parts of container ship. Some components of welding system and parameters were modified to get the faster travel speed and reduce weld heat input, and also by adding additional filler rods or tubes increase the amount of deposited weld metal. With the test get some good date can apply to actual fabrication work and recommend items to manufacture welding materials make better. Above all things it's a fruition that to prepare the possibility of application of ESW to shipbuilding construction which fill up the gap of stoppage days of more than 20 years.
