This paper was described on investigation to prevent porosity in high speed MIG Welding of Al 6082-T6. Porosity measurement was carried out by using image analysis of micrographs with the help of an analysis software. The main parameter was arc length and torch progressive angle. The porosity ratio was increased as arc length was increased. The arc length was increased depending upon the output voltage. By proper selection of pulse waveform parameter, the stable arc of one pulse one drop was generated. The porosity ratio of optimum condition in one pulse one drop was lower than high voltage condition. When torch progressive angle was an angle of advance $10^{\circ}$, porosity ratio was minium.

Recently, the application of aluminum alloys has been increasing for lightweight and high quality transport vehicles. Therefore, the proposal has been made to apply high speed hybrid welding methods to the marine grade aluminum alloy (A5052) used for shipbuilding by combining a 3-KW CW Nd : YAG laser and the MIG welding process. In this study, the characteristics of the welding parameters were investigated for a hybrid butt joint. This paper also describes the determination of the heat distribution in a weldment and the welding residual stress using a finite element method. Mechanical experimentation was also used to ascertain the reliability of the weldment.

There are some problems when weld gray cast iron which is used well in automobile industry with auto MIG welding. the problems are followed like this 1) Occurrence of porosity and hardening organization. 2) Occurrence of crack due to lower elongation of gray cast iron when restraint stress works on. 3) Occurrence of porosity and unstable bead shape due to unstable arc under low current MIG welding.. especially there is a restraint on chemical composition of weld metal because the weldment demands more than 570Hv hardness. so it is hard to use Fe-Ni wire to prevent cracks occured on weldment and new welding method is needed to resolve that problems. This study shows how to prevent porosity and cracks occurring when weld gray cast iron trimming die and shows a new welding method for press die of gray cast iron

It was attempted to improve the wear resistance of Al alloy under the load condition by making a formation of the thick surface hardening alloy layers. The thick surface hardening alloy layers were formed on 6061 Al alloys overlayed by MIG welding process with WC-12%Co powder addition. Effects of the dispersion of WE-12%Co powders on hardness and wear characteristics of alloys were investigated. The following results were obtained. Most of WE-12%Co powders are dispersed nearly uniform as unmelted particles in the matrix alloy. A part of WC-12%Co powders are melted in the molten pool, and during solidification {TEX}$Al_{9}Co_{2}${/TEX} appeared. With increasing addition of WC-12%Co powders, the hardness and specific wear resistance of the overlay weld alloys increased and reached Hv450 at WC-12%Co powder addition rate of 54g/min. It is considered that excellent wear resistance of the overlayed alloys was due to dispersed WC-12%Co powders and increased 10 times at WC-12%Co powder addition rate of 54 g/min than that of the WC-free overlaying layers.

Recently, use of thick Al 5083 plate has increased in production of LNG storage tank. In general, multi-pass welding has been used to achieve sufficient penetration in thick plate welding. High current welding which enables high deposition and deep penetration is preferred in thick plate welding because the increase of number of pass increases manufacturing cost and formation of weld defect. In this study, welding characteristics according to various Ar/He shielding gas composition was investigated in high current MIG welding. The bead-on-plate welding and V groove welding were conducted on Al 5083 alloy with a thickness of .25 mm. The effect of shielding gas composition on bead shape was evaluated and proper shielding gas composition was proposed. Also arc stability was examined under selected shielding gas composition. One side-one pass welding experiments were conducted for V groove specimen with a thickness of 25 mm. Mechanical properties and hardness profiles were measured for the V groove specimens.

알루미늄 합금 Al 6082-T6는 최근에 개발되어 북유럽 등의 선진국에서는 그 뛰어난 해양 내식성과 우수한 강도로 인하여 해양구조물의 헬리데크(Helideck), 타워 갱웨이(Tower gangway), 알루미늄 피팅류(Aluminium fitting)등의 해양구조물과 플랫폼(Flatform), 알루미늄 래더(Aluminium ladder)등의 선박부품, 차량, 기계부품 분야에서 전 세계적으로 널리 사용되기 시작하였다. 그러나 전통적으로 용접금속의 기공은 결함으로 분류 되고, Rakesh Kumar 등의 논문에 따르면 용접 시 용접금속 내에 발생되어진 미세기공이 기계적 성질에 악영향을 미치는 것으로 보고되어졌다. 따라서 용접금속내의 발생하는 기공을 방지하는 용접공정의 개발이 반드시 필요하다. 본 연구의 목적은 Al 6082-T6 고속 MIG용접에서 기공방지를 위한 용접공정을 개발하는 것이다. Al 6082-T6의 7t 플레이트에 Al 5356의 와이어를 사용하여 아크길이 변경 및 용접속도를 60cpm과 120cpm으로 변경하여 실험하였고, 용접속도 120cpm의 고속 MIG용접에서 토치 진행각을 변경하여 실험을 진행하였다. 용접공정 파라메터 변경에 따른 기공율 측정은 이미지 분석 소프트웨어를 사용하여 정량적으로 분석하였다.

The light weight aluminum subframe for automobile chassis part was developed using hybrid process, i.e. extruforming, press stamping and MIG welding. To achieve a 30 % weight reduction compared with conventional steel subframe keeping satisfactory performance, the design of cross-section of extruforming part was introduced, then forming simulation was performed and the final design was determined. In addition, we tried to estibilish optimun aluminum welding conditions for good penetration depth and few pore defact, finally the prototype of aluminum subframe was assembled using MIG welding method.

The crevice corrosion behavior on austenitic AISI 304 and 316L stainless steel welded by TIG, MIG, $CO_2$ and SMA was studied. The results are as follows : In 10% $FeCl_3$ solution and natural sea water sampled near Mokpo port, the base metal of 304 stainless steel showed small amount corrosion, whereas 316L stainless steel did not showed any corrosion in the test periods. The weight loss caused by crevice corrosion increased with increasing weld heat input and residual .delta. ferrite formed in welded part. The corrosion resistance of the welded part was in the order of TIG, MIG, $CO_2$ and SMA. From this tendency, it is proved that the smaller heat input gives the better corrosion resistance.

Electromagnetic force is one of the most important factor that effect on metal transfer mode, short-circuit rate, spatter generation rate and mechanical properties of weld metal etc. Also, shielding gas and welding current have influence on metal transfer mode in GMAW. In this paper, different ways for external electromagnetic forces are applied by attaching cylindrically rounded conducting wire solenoid on touch tip holding. With the applied electromagnetic field, the arc transfer mode changes from normal mode to rotating mode and spatter generation decreased in electromagnetic fields(N-pole). In MIG welding, the influences of electromagnetic force on the spatter generation showed different tendency as in the $CO_2$ welding. It is possible reasons were discussed.
