Higher welding speed improves the quality of welds between dissimilar alloys

Wednesday, December 17, 2014 - 07:30 in Physics & Chemistry

Simple changes in technique can yield big improvements, say A*STAR researchers investigating how welding speed and the placement of materials affect the quality of welds between dissimilar alloys. They discovered that the tensile strength increases with increasing welding speed and becomes even higher when the softer alloy is placed on the advancing side of the weld.
