Amount of spatter, welding conditions and welding costs were investigated for MAG welding. $CO_2$, Ar+18%;$CO_2$ and Ar+8%$O_2$ were used for shielding gases. As results, arc characteristics and appropriate range for welding were obtained. Amount of spatter in Ar+18%$CO_2$ gas welding was 20% of that of $CO_2$ welding, and Ar+8%$O_2$ was 10% of that of $CO_2$ welding. Therefore by using Ar+18%$CO_2$and Ar+8%$O_2$ gases, welding costs could be reduced compared with $CO_2$ welding due to avoiding spatter.

Laser-gas metal arc hybrid welding has been considered as an alternative process of gas metal arc welding for offshore pipe laying. Fiber delivered high power lasers which enable deep penetration welding were recently developed but high power welding characteristics were not fully understood yet. In this study, the influence of shielding gas composition on welding phenomena in high power laser welding was investigated. Bead shapes, melt ejection and dropping were observed after autogenous laser welding with 100% Ar, Ar-20% $CO_2$, Ar-50% $CO_2$, and 100% $CO_2$ shielding gas. Process parameter window was widest with Ar-50% $CO_2$ shielding gas and the penetration was deepest with 100% $CO_2$ shielding gas. The melt dropping was not observed when Ar-50% $CO_2$ or 100% $CO_2$ shielding gas was supplied.

The object of this study is to investigate the effect of compounded welding through the AE (Acoustic Emission) characteristics on static tensile test. This study was carried out a SM 490A, high tension steel using the low hydrogen type E4316 of electronic shield metal arc welding and compound wire of $CO_2$gas arc welding. $CO_2$welding, weak in the intensity of HAZ (Heat Affected Zone), can be improved by being combined with coated arc welding, Coated arc welding, weak in the intensity of the bead, can be improved by being combined with $CO_2$welding. Especially, electronic coated arc welding and $CO_2$welding complement the mechanical intensity of HAZ and the bead with each other. So, compounded welding increases the intensity in the special parts and enhances the quality of goods.

The laser welding of the car body and components has been spread in the automotive industry. The Nd:YAG laser welding system could be used in 3D welding with robot. However, this system cannot efficiently reduce the welding cycle time according to various welding sequences because the robot's moving time is same that of the resistant spot welding system. But the remote welding system with high power $CO_2$ laser and scanner makes it possible welding cycle time much faster than the robot laser welding system. In the $CO_2$ laser remote welding system, laser beam can be rapidly transferred to a workpiece by moving mirrors of scanner system. So, it makes reducing the cycle time of welding process and shaping various welding patterns easily. Therefore, in this paper, the characteristic of weld strength according to patterns of weld bead on $CO_2$ laser welding was investigated. Also, the relationship between shape of weld bead and value of tensile load was studied. Finally, the optimum remote welding condition for car bumper was investigated.

본 논문은 용접 산업현장에서 많이 사용 되는 $CO_2$ 용접에서는 차량내부 및 탱크내부 용접에서 제어 패널을 볼 수 없는 곳, 작업장이 먼 곳 등에서 용접사가 용접을 하면서 용접조건에 맞는 전류와 전압을 조절할 수가 없고, 전류와 전압을 조절하기 위해 용접을 중단하고 잦은 이동으로 용접 구조물의 순간적인 냉각에 의해 용접결함이 발생된다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 $CO_2$ 용접기 3종류를 각각 사용하여 원격제어 토치의 용접에 대해 SS400 용접구조용 압연강재를 사용하여 원격제어 토치와 기존 $CO_2$ 용접 토치를 V형 맞대기 수직자세로 용접실험을 실시하고 용접 부의 표면비드 상태의 형상을 육안검사 관찰하고 또한 이를 침투탐상검사 및 굽힘 시험을 통해 용접부의 외관품질에 대하여 중점적으로 수행하여 용접결함 감소 및 기존 상용용접기에 교체사용에 대한 성능 및 호환성여부에 미치는 영향에 대해 평가하였다.

It has been used many kinds of horizontal butt-welding methods at block-to-block erection stage in shipbuilding companies. For examples, some companies use conventional FCAW process with one side or both sides groove joint welding, others use carriage with torch holder type mechanized welding method. Although lots of efforts were done until now, some problems in quality and productivity still remain in ship's hull welding. In this study, we have attempted to raise productivity and quality on horizontal position of welding with following 3 items. 1) Prepare groove condition with no root gap for making easy fit-up work. 2) Develop improved MAG (100% $CO_2$ gas shielding) welding process with solid wire for making sound root bead from one side. 3) Develop and apply quite new automatic welding carriage. The stability of new welding process was confirmed by conducting mechanical tests of weldments to verify the soundness of weldments.

기존의 자동차 부품 로봇 용접방법은 노즐을 통하여 $CO_2$ 가스가 확산되는 구조로 되어있어 용접대상물에 노즐간섭으로 인하여 로봇 용접이 불가능한 부위가 많고, 공간이 좁은 부분의 용접은 2차 수작업으로 완성하고 있어 생산성 향상에 걸림돌이었다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이러한 용접과정을 분석하여 $CO_2$ 가스 소모량을 절약하고, 좁은 공간 부위를 로봇 용접할 수 있는 새로운 특수 용접 노즐을 개발하여 생산성을 향상시키고자 하였다. 본 연구개발에서 설계 제작된 협대역 자동차 부품 로봇 용접용 특수 용접 팁은 2단 구조로서 중단부에 직경 3mm의 구멍을 8개소로 제작하고 $CO_2$ 가스 소모량을 47%이상 절약한 형태로서 용접 결함율이 비교적 낮은 개발품이다. 본 연구의 결과는 국내 자동차 업계에서 사용되는 구형 용접 팁을 중간부에 구멍이 뚫린 2단 구조의 노즐로 대체하면 생산원가를 절감할 수 있다고 판단된다.

A welding process of a lifting lug for lifting heavy objects is one of the important welding processes directly related to the safety in shipbuilding. Welding a lifting lug is done in the manually and takes about forty minutes. Working environment for the lifting lug welding is very poor due to an radiant heat and a harmful fume. The purpose of this study is to develop methods of multi-pass welding using the lifting lug welding robot system. This study shows robot welding methods to achieve proper corner, straight and connection welding and an effectiveness of application.
