High shrinkage restraint of repair welds may lead to crack formation and component failure, particularly in interaction with degraded microstructures and mechanical properties due to repair cycles. This study aims for elaboration of recommendations for repair concepts appropriate to the stresses and materials involved to avoid cold cracking, damage and expensive reworking. In part 1 [1] of this study systematic investigations of influences of shrinkage restraint on residual stresses and cold cracking risk during repair welding of two high-strength steels S500MLO for offshore application and S960QL for mobile crane structures were focussed. In this part 2, the microstructure and residual stresses due to gouging and influences of heat control parameters in repair welding are analysed. A clear reduction in residual stress after gouging can be observed, especially for the specimens with restrained transverse shrinkage. Gouging to a depth of approx. 2/3 of the seam height does not lead to a complete relaxation of the observed reaction forces. Particularly for the higher strength steel S960QL, there are pronounced areas influenced by the gouging process in which a degradation of the microstructure and properties should be assumed. Overall, the repair welds show a significant increase in the width of the weld and HAZ compared to the original weld, especially in the case of S960QL/G89. The repair welds show higher welding-induced stresses than the original welds, especially in the areas of the HAZ and the base metal close to the weld seam. This behaviour can be attributed overall to increased restraint conditions due to the remaining root weld or shorter gouge grooves. In good agreement with earlier investigations, the residual stresses transverse to the weld can be significantly reduced by upwardly limited working or interpass temperatures and the reaction stresses resulting from high restraint conditions can be effectively counteracted. The influence of the heat input on the stress formation is low compared to the interpass temperature for both test materials.

This applies to both foundation and erection structures, like mobile or ship cranes. During the assembly of steel structures, unacceptable defects can occasionally be found in the weld area. In most cases, the economical solution would be local thermal gouging of the affected areas and re-welding. Due to the high shrinkage restraint of the joint groove in the overall structure, the superposition of global and local welding-induced stresses may lead to crack formation and component failure, particularly in interaction with the degradation of the microstructure and mechanical properties of high-strength steels during the repair process. However, manufacturers hardly have any information about these issues and there is a lack of recommendations and guidelines to take these safety-relevant aspects into account in adequate repair concepts. The aim of this research is to derive recommendations for repair concepts appropriate to the stresses and materials involved providing a basis for standards and guidelines to avoid cold cracking, damage and expensive reworking especially for high-strength steels. Part 1 of this study involves systematic investigations of influences of shrinkage restraint during repair welding of two high-strength steels S500MLO for offshore application and S960QL for mobile crane structures. The quantification of the shrinkage restraint of repair weld joints was achieved by means of experimental and numerical restraint intensity analysis. In welding experiments with self-restrained slot specimens, restraint intensity and introduction of hydrogen via the welding arc using anti spatter spray were varied systematically to analyse the effect on welding result, residual stresses, and cold cracking. It could be shown that increasing restraint intensities result in significantly higher transverse residual stress levels. In the case of hydrogen introduction S500MLO showed no cold cracking independent of the restraint conditions. However, S960QL was found to be considerably cold cracking sensitive if hydrogen is introduced. With increasing restraint intensity length and number of cold cracks increases significantly. Part 2 [1] of this study is focussed on microstructure and residual stresses due to gouging and stress optimization via adequate heat control parameters in repair welding.

T1 - Einfluss trennender Fertigungsschritte auf die Eigenspannungen in additiv gefertigten Bauteilen aus hochfestem Stahl N2 - Additive Fertigungsverfahren wie das Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM) ermöglichen die effiziente Fertigung von gewichtsoptimierten endkonturnahen Strukturen in modernen Stahlkonstruktionen. Ihre Effizienz kann weiter durch die Verwendung von hochfesten Stählen gesteigert werden. Dies erlaubt eine signifikante Einsparung von Kosten, Zeit und Ressourcen. Entsprechende Schweißzusatzwerkstoffe für Lichtbogenschweißverfahren sind kommerziell verfügbar. Fehlende Richtlinien und fehlende quantitative Kenntnisse über die schweißtechnische Beanspruchung während der Fertigung und im Betrieb limitieren den industriellen Einsatz stark. Daher werden in einem aktuellen Vorhaben (IGF-Nr. 21162 BG) der BAM und TU Chemnitz die wesentlichen Einflüsse und komplexen Interaktionen durch Werkstoff, Fertigungsprozess, Konstruktion und trennende Fertigungsschritte auf den Beanspruchungszustand untersucht. Der vorliegende Beitrag fokussiert hierfür die Auswirkungen trennender Fertigungsschritte auf Verzug und Eigenspannungen definierter WAAM-Prüfkörper. Die Eigenspannungsanalyse erfolgt mittels Röntgenbeugung. Die große Anzahl an Ergebnissen von zuvor untersuchten Referenzproben, die mit einem speziellen WAAM-Massivdraht (Streckgrenze >820 MPa) bei unterschiedlicher Wärmeführung und Geometrie vollautomatisiert geschweißt wurden, lässt eine Korrelation der Messdaten zu. Hierzu erfolgt die Analyse des Ausgangszustandes und abschließend des Zustandes nach trennender Bearbeitung, welche begleitend mittels digitaler Bildkorrelation hinsichtlich des Verzuges untersucht wurden. So ist zu beobachten, dass die Geometrie deutlichen Einfluss auf Relaxation und Umlagerung der Eigenspannungen hat und damit die Risssicherheit positiv beeinflussen kann. T2 - 23.

In addition to increasing demands to replace conventional cobalt alloys with nickel alloys as a result of price and supply risks, there is a growing demand in industry for defined functional surfaces of high quality for these coatings. Milling is a standard process for finish machining. The desired properties of wear resistant alloys imply significant challenges for the milling process due to high tool wear and surface defects. Besides the hardness of the coating materials, especially due to the precipitations, inhomogeneous, anisotropic weld structures of the claddings lead to further deteriorations of milling processes due to unstable milling conditions and process forces. A joint project of BAM and ISAF of TU Clausthal (Fosta P1550/IGF 21959 N) investigates the optimization of these challenging machining conditions by means of alloy modifications of the welding powder for plasma transferred arc cladding, without reducing the wear protection potential and using ultrasonic assisted milling process. In this paper, the influence of the microstructure and precipitation morphology adjusted by means of alloy modification on machining is investigated. The alloy used is a NiCrMoSiFeB alloy (trade name: Colmonoy 56 PTA). Through metallurgical investigations and in-situ measurement of cutting forces and temperatures at the cutting edge during the milling process as well as the subsequent investigation of tool wear and surface integrity, a detailed analysis and correlation between microstructural properties and machinability is feasible. The findings allow recommendations for standards and processing guidelines, enabling safe and economical production of highly stressed steel components with non-critical, cost-reduced materials.
