Abstract:
Solid state welding a butt joint by fusion welding the peripheral surfaces to form a seal, autogenetically cleaning the faying or mating surfaces of the joint by heating the abutting surfaces to 1,200*C., and heating to the diffusion welding temperature in air.
Abstract:
Surfaces of unrecrystallized alloys are sanded and polished. This is followed by a two-step welding process wherein the strength of the parent metal is retained at the weld joint. The first step forces the surfaces into intimate contact at a temperature where the metal still has good ductility. The second step causes diffusion, rerystallization, and grain growth across the original weld interface.
Abstract:
Using magnetic force upset welding to form T-joints between dissimilar thickness parts. This type of resistance welding is used to join compressor and turbine parts thereby reducing the weight and cost of a jet engine.
