Abstract:AA6063 aluminium alloy joints were fabricated by alternating current tungsten inert gas (ACTIG) welding process and the effects of post weld heat treatment (PWHT) on the tensile properties, impact strength, microstructure, microhardness and fractography of the welded joints were investigated. The ACTIG welding process was adopted because it bears higher strength, more ductility and no apparent microstructure defect. The welded samples were divided into as-welded (AW) sample and PWHT sample. The PWHT method use… Show more
