(a) With the aid a diagram, describe the principle of spot-welding process.
What effect does the end shape of the tungsten have on its own welding performance?
Note: answer the question briefly but informative.
Your boss requests a recommendation on which process to use to weld the high strength structural steel rail tank cars hull section. You have this additional information:
P-GMAW
Productivity is substantially lower. However, you have
welders already qualified to do manual p-GMAW
welding. Labor is 80% of total cost
HYPERFILLⓇ®
Productivity gains are important, and the
volume of the product is sufficient on the
rail tank cars to justify capital investment.
With confidence, you respond: Use
process because
.(Give process and short explanation for why you want to use that process)

- What are the advantages of torch soldering?arrow_forwardIn one type of welding, electric charge flows between the welding tool and the metal pieces that are to be joined. This produces a glowing arc whose high temperature fuses the pieces together. Why must the tool be held close to the metal pieces? (i) To maximize the potential difference between tool and pieces; (ii) to minimize this potential difference; (iii) to maximize the electric field between tool and pieces; (iv) to minimize this electric field; (v) more than one of these.arrow_forwardExplain the mechanism of heat generation in Resistance spot welding.
