Abstract |
|
The aim of this paper is to test the hardness of MS rod using arc welding process. Welding is a fabrication technique or sculptural process that joins materials, metals or thermoplastics, by causing coalescence. This is often done by melting the work-pieces and adding a filler material to form a pool of molten material (the weld pool) that cools to become a strong joint, with pressure sometimes used in conjunction with heat, or by itself, to produce the weld. In this work two MS round rods of Ø10 and Ø14 mm were joined and tested on Rockwell hardness tester. It was observed that the hardness of Ø14 mm rod has higher harness then the Ø10 mm rod at different locations from heat effected zone. |
