Explain how heat treatment is applied in welding processes and what its importance is.
A circular electrode of 190 mm diameter is used for carrying out seam welding at 5 welds per cm on a mild steel tube of thickness 1.5 mm. The duration of the welding
cycle is given as On - 4 cycles, Off- 3 cycles. The power supply is at 50 Hz. Calculate work speed, welds per minutę, RPM, and energy requirement assuming effective
resistance between an electrode as 100u ohm.
Through illustrations explain the process of TIG Welding.
