Weld deposits are one of the most used economical ways of the wear resistance increase. The study compares the characteristics of the overlay material welded-on and the abrasive wear resistance. The research has been carried out using hardfacing alloys reinforced with primary chromium carbides and complex carbides. The overlay material was deposited on the low-carbon steel S235JR using the gas metal arc welding (GMAW) method. Four different commercial overlay materials were studied in terms of the microstructure effect. The abrasion wear testing was carried out using the abrasive cloth of grit 120 according to CSN 01 5084. The microstructure characterisation and surface analysis were made using optical and scanning electron microscopy. The results illustrate a significant effect of primary carbides on the abrasive wear resistance of weld deposits.

Hardfacing is one of the most useful and economical ways to improve the performance of components submitted to severe wear conditions. This study has been made for the comparison of microstructure and abrasion resistance of hardfacing alloys reinforced with chromium carbides or complex carbides. The hardfacing alloys were deposited onto ČNS EN S235JR low carbon steel plates by the gas metal arc welding (GMAW) method. Different commercial hardfacing electrodes were applied to investigate the effect of abrasive particle size on abrasive wear resistance. The abrasion tests were made using the two-body abrasion test according to ČSN 01 5084 standard, abrasive cloths were of grits 80, 120, 240, and 400. Microstructure characterisation and surface analysis were made using optical and scanning electron microscopy. The results show the different influence of abrasive particles size on the wear rate for different structures of Fe-Cr-C system. The structures without primary carbides are of high abrasive wear rate, which increases nonlinearly with the increasing abrasive particle size. On the contrary, the structures containing primary carbides are of low abrasive rates and theses rates increase linearly with the increasing abrasive particle size.

The effect of quenching from 900°C (20 min exposure) and different tempering in the 250-650°C (for 1 hour) interval, as well as additionally preliminary carburization for 8 hours at 930°C, followed by a similar heat treatment on abrasive and shock-abrasive wear of low-carbon manganese (10-24%Mn) steels, phase composition and mechanical properties was studied. It was confirmed that an increase in the manganese reduces the abrasive wear resistance and increases the impact-abrasive wear resistance. The expediency of carburization of low-carbon manganese steels is shown in order to obtain the residual austenite in the structure which amount and stability must be optimized in relation to specific abrasive impact characterized by the dynamic ratio with taking into account the chemical composition.

Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing

Additive manufacturing has gained relevance in recent decades as an alternative to the manufacture of metal parts. Among the additive technologies, those that are classified as Directed Energy Deposition (DED) are characterized by their high deposition rate, noticeably, Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM). However, having the inability to produce parts with acceptable final surface quality and high geometric precision is to be considered an important disadvantage in this process. In this paper, different torch trajectory strategies (oscillatory motion and overlap) in the fabrication of low carbon steel walls will be compared using Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW)-based WAAM technology. The comparison is done with a study of the mechanical and microstructural characteristics of the produced walls and finally, addressing the productivity obtained utilizing each strategy. The oscillation strategy shows better results, regarding the utilization rate of deposited material and the flatness of the upper surface, this being advantageous for subsequent machining steps.

Boronizing is one of the thermochemical surface treatment processes which is extensively used to obtain excellent mechanical properties such as high strength, very high hardness, good toughness and fracture toughness. In this study, AISI 1050 steel specimens have been subjected to pack boronizing process by using Ekabor 2 powder within the stainless steel seal container. The experiments were carried out at temperatures of 800 °C, 850 °C and 900 °C for 3, 6 and 9 hours to investigate the effect of these parameters on the wear resistance of boronized specimens. Pin-on-Disk wear testing is used to characterize wear properties of boronized specimens. Wear tests were performed at dry conditions under constant load of 30 N by using 220 mesh size Al2O3 abrasive paper. Different rotating speeds of the pin-on disk were selected as 300, 600, 900, 1200, 1500 revolutions for each of the test specimens. After the abrasive tests, weight losses of the specimens were measured to determine the abrasive wear resistance of boronized specimens. The results were also compared with unboronized and conventional hardened AISI 1050 steel specimens respectively.

Abrasive Wear Behaviour

In most of the engineering applications, such as mining, agriculture, metallurgy, the equipments fail due to abrasive wear. Hardfacing is one of the most economical and most widely used methods of improving surface characteristics of engineering equipments (wear, corrosion) without changing the bulk properties of the components.Fe-Cr-C hardfacing alloys are well known for their excellent performances under severe wear conditions. The wear behaviour of hardfacing alloys depends on their chemical composition, on the microstructure obtained after welding, of the welding technology, respectively the welding parameters which strongly influence, for example, the dilution with the base material or formation of precipitated hard phases.The aim of this study was to characterize the microstructure of Fe-Cr-C hardfacing alloys and to investigate their abrasive wear behaviour. The research has been carried out using four types of Fe-Cr-C hardfacing alloys (8 12, 16 and 20 % Cr). The alloys were deposited on the low-carbon steel S355 JR by manual arc welding method. The abrasion wear testing was carried out using the Taber Rotary Abraser Equipment. The microstructure characterization and surface analysis were performed using optical microscopy and HV 10 hardness tests.

Weld Distortion

This paper investigates the simulation technique for analyzing the distortion behavior induced by welding process on welded plate which was clamped on one side. This clamping method is intended to enable the investigation of the maximum distortion on the other side. FEA software SYSWELD was employed to predict multipassed butt weld distortion of low carbon steel with thicknesses of 6 mm and 9 mm. The simulation begins with the development of model geometry and meshing type followed by suitable selection of heat source model represented by the Goldak’s double ellipsoid model. Other parameters such as travel speed, heat input, clamping method etc. were determined. The model is dedicated for multipass welding techniques using Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW). The experimental works were conducted by using Robotic welding process.

This paper presents a failure analysis on welding of bucket adapter for an excavator that made of low carbon steel with Ideal Diameter (DI) value 341 and Carbon Equivalent 0.73. The bucket component is stated OK as the final inspection, but four months later found cracked and even it has not been used yet. Adapter mounted to bucket through CO2 gas shielded Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) process, filler metal MG-50 (AWS A5.18 ER70S-G), pre-heating and post-heating. Crack occurred on the boundary of weld metal and adapter casting. The metallurgical examination was conducted in the crack origin and the adapter casting. Nondestructive test (NDT) covered visual and magnetic test (MT), while destructive test (DT) covered fractography, mechanical properties, and Electron Probe Micro Analyzer (EPMA). The investigation resulted in that crack initiated from slag inclusion in the weld metal due to insufficient cleaning on weld joint. The higher hardness of martensite structure in the heat affected zone (HAZ) of adapter indicates high cooling rate that gen erates high residual stress. High stress that caused by insufficient post heating triggered severe crack propagation. By its characteristic, crack is called the cold cracking, delayed cracking, or hydrogen-induced cracking (HIC).
