Analysis of the Effect of Current Flow Variations in GTAW on SS 400 Plate Material Connected with SUS 304 Stainless Steel Plate Against Tensile Strength and Hardness with ER308L Electrodes
“…According to the researchers [10], experiments involving two types of current strength variations (80, 100 A), with GTAW and ER308L electrode types on SUS 304 stainless plate and SS 400 steel plate materials, showed that the highest joint tensile strength was achieved in specimens with a welding current of 100 A (25.59 kgf/mm 2 ), compared to a welding current of 80 A (16.17 kgf/mm 2 ).…”

“…Practical guidelines for optimizing welding in steel structures are provided through Micro-Plasma Arc Welding (MPAW) process investigations according to [8], while weld strength depends on welding speed, as revealed by [9]. [10] asserts that weld joint strength is obtained from variations in the current strength of steel plate welding, benefiting industrial applications. However, several research findings by other researchers have yet to focus on the combined parameters of welding direction with various current strength variations.…”

“…This aligns with the finding that welding speed is the most influential parameter in controlling weld strength [9]. Moreover, a study on the strength of welded joints with two current strength variations on SUS 304 stainless steel and SS 400 steel plates reveals that the highest tensile strength is obtained in specimens with a welding current of 100 A (25.59 kgf/mm 2 ), compared to a welding current of 80 A (16.17 kgf/mm 2 ), using GTAW and ER308L electrode types [10].…”
The welding process plays a central role in the welding industry, where the joint zone undergoing the welding process experiences structural and mechanical property changes. This research evaluates the comparison of current strength and parameters in the directional welding joint model, a critical aspect of addressing common weaknesses in welded joints. The research objects include four current levels (100, 120, 140, 160 A) and three types of welding directions (longitudinal, transversal, and combination). The aim of this study is to detect the optimal combination in welded joints that can produce a maximum tensile strength ratio. The research method involves tensile testing on various specimen models of joint types at specific current strength levels.
The research results indicate that at the current strength level of 120 A, the combined directional welding joint model (longitudinal+transverse) provides a maximum tensile strength reaching 335.370 MPa. This finding stands out significantly, surpassing the tensile strength values at other current levels and welding model types, such as at 100 A (331.574 MPa), 140 A (332.315 MPa), and 160 A (332.685 MPa). This discovery highlights that the combined joint model yields a substantial improvement in joint strength, making it an optimal solution for various current strength levels and joint models.
The key feature of this research involves specific recommendations for the welding industry, including guidelines on selecting optimal parameters to enhance the tensile strength of joints. The directional welding joint models can be a reference in designing welding procedure specifications to incorporate construction elements using ST 42 material. This research contributes both theoretically and practically, offering opportunities for improving efficiency and structural safety in the welding process, thus positively impacting the quality of joints in construction and manufacturing applications
