Abstract:
This paper presents an investigative study of double-passed
welding parameters on single V butt joint. In this study, a robotic
welding system ABB IRB 2400/16 with digital welding power
source KEMPPI Pro Evolution ProMIG 540 MXE are used to
investigate the effect of parameters such as current, voltage,
welding speed and width of weaving movement on distortion by
using one-sided clamping method. The material used is low
carbon steel with 6 mm thickness. Mix gas Argon 80% and
Carbon Dioxide 20% is utilized as a shielding gas media. Taguchi
method in MINITAB software is applied to manage the
experiments and develop the relation between welding
parameters. The results of this study will be useful to identify the
problems by using robotic welding system and to obtain suitable
process parameters for achieving good welding quality and
effective welding design.
