Multi Objective Optimization of Weld Bead Geometry Parameters of Pulsed Current Micro Plasma Arc Welded Inconel 625 Using Enhanced Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm
Abstract: Pulsed Current Plasma Arc Welding (PCPAW) is one of the most widely used welding processes in sheet metal manufacturing industry. In any fusion arc welding process, the weld bead geometry plays an important role in determining the mechanical properties of the weld and hence, quality of the weld. Moreover, the geometry of weld bead involves several simultaneously multiple quality characteristics such as front width, back width, front height and back …

Statistical Analysis on Weld Bead Geometry of Pulsed Current Micro-plasma Arc Welded AISI 316Ti Austenitic Stainless Steel Sheets
Abstract: Micro-plasma arc welding (MPAW) uses low amperage to join sheets, where the thickness is low, such that they can be used for manufacturing metal bellows, metal diaphragms etc. In the present work, pulsed current MPAW is used for joining 0.3 mm thick AISI 316Ti austenitic stainless steel sheets. Peak current, base current, pulse rate and pulse width are considered as input parameters and weld bead geometry parameters namely front width, …
