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)
Can you explain the difference between the two welded lines shown in figures (a) and (b)? Also, what
are the characteristics of a good weld?
b)
Give information about the reasons why the weld is preferred over other fastening methods.

- 2.8 Advantages of Submerged Arc Welding Cost per unit length of joint is relatively low The arc is under a blanket of flux, which virtually eliminates arc flash, spatter, and fume. • Extremely high deposition rates and welding speeds are possible. • Sound welds are readily made (with good process design and control). High current densities increase weld penetration and decrease the need for edge preparation. High speed welding of thin sheet steels at over 2.5 m/min is possible. Can be easily Automated Minimum welder training is required (relatively unskilled welders can be employed). • Low hydrogen weld deposits can be produced. • The flux acts as a scavenger and deoxidizer to remove contaminants such as oxygen, nitrogen, and sulphur from the molten weld pool. This helps to produce sound welds with excellent mechanical properties. 26 2.9 Limitations of Submerged Arc Welding Initial cost of wire feeder, power supply, controls, and flux-handling equipment is high.
