Influence of Different Fluxes on the Angular Distortion of A-TIG Welded 316L Steel Plates
Abstract: The conventional Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding process is an autogenous welding process primarily used to weld thin metal sheets in the food processing and chemical industry. The process can weld almost all engineering materials but suffers from the limitation of slow speed and inability to weld thick sections. With the development of A-TIG welding, some of the drawbacks of traditional TIG welding have been addressed, where the activated flux …

Application of Thermal Spray Coatings for Corrosion Control in Oil and Gas Refineries
Abstract: In today’s context, Thermal Spray Coating (TSC) has emerged as a highly durable and reliable alternative to traditional Hot-Dip Galvanizing (HDG). It is increasingly being adopted for both new and existing industrial structures due to its long-lasting protection—often exceeding 25 years—while requiring little to no maintenance. Unlike HDG, which cannot be welded on-site and often poses challenges with repair methods such as liquid coating or cold spray, TSC offers greater …

Optimization of Stellite Defect in Manufacturing of Engine Valves: A Review
Abstract: Intake and exhaust valves are the important components of an engine valves which are used to control flow and replacement of fuel gases inside the cylinder. This work mainly deals with defect known as stellite defect in different sizes of engine valves; and methodology adopted to prevent valve from stellite defect. Valve base material is low alloy steel (AISI 4140) and upper surface of engine valve is generally hard faced …

Selection and Mechanism of using active gas in GTAW Process – A review
Abstract: Gas tungsten arc welding process is known for its good quality welds. However, the lack of penetration of the process leads to low productivity. Many techniques have been implemented in the past to improve the joint penetration and thereby the productivity of GTAW process. In one of the technique, active gas like Carbon dioxide, Nitrogen or Oxygen is used in some proportion along with the inert gas. This addition of …
