Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is applied in evaluating environmental impacts of state-of-the-art welding technologies. Manual Metal Arc Welding (MMAW), Laser Arc-Hybrid Welding (LAHW) and two Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) variants are used to join a plate of 20 mm thick structural steel. The LCA results indicate that for 1 m weld seam, MMAW causes the highest environmental impacts in global warming potential (GWP), eutrophication potential (EP), acidification potential (AP), and photochemical ozone creation potential (POCP) among the selected processes, and the LAHW variant performances the least. Filler material and electricity consumptions generally dominate the impacts and reach shares of up to 80% and 61% in the respective impact categories. However, electrode coating consumption in MMAW remarkably contributes impacts on AP and EP, for instance 52% of AP and 76% of EP. Strategies for improvement of the applied welding technologies are discussed.
Der Beitrag stellt am Beispiel eines für adaptive MSG-Lichtbogen-Engspaltschweißungen im Dickblech-Bereich entwickelten Versuchsstandes ein Automatisierungskonzept für vernetzte kommerziell verfügbare Anlagenkomponenten über ein zentrales echtzeitfähiges Steuersystem auf Basis des EtherCAT-Protokolls vor. Der Fokus liegt hierbei auf der Eignung für Aufgaben im Bereich der Qualitätssicherung sowie Forschung und Entwicklung leistungsfähiger Algorithmen zur Prozessüberwachung und -regelung. Die sich daraus ergebende Vielzahl zu messender und steuernder Parameter stellen vor allem in Verbindung mit präzisen und hochfrequenten Messgeräten höchste Anforderungen an die Datenverarbeitung sowohl in Echtzeit als auch zur Auswertung nach dem Prozess. Die Einbindung etablierter Programmiertools wie MATLAB/Simulink in gängigen Automatisierungsstandards ermöglichen flexible und innovative Forschungsarbeit.
Durch die automatisierte Datenerfassung in einer übergelagerten Datenbank stehen die Messungen sämtlicher Schweißvorgänge jederzeit zur Entwicklung neuer Abläufe zur Prozessteuerung und -regelung oder zur Verbesserung der bestehenden Algorithmen zur Verfügung, was insbesondere den sukzessiven Aufbau komplexer Regressionsmodelle aus der Anwendung heraus ermöglicht.
Als Applikationsbeispiel wird die Entwicklung eines dynamischen Lichtbogensensors vorgestellt und diskutiert. Die Versuchsdurchführung mit dem Ziel der Ableitung nichtlinearer Regressionsmodelle erfolgt automatisiert mithilfe eines optischen Sensors. Der Vorteil dieses Verfahrens liegt dabei neben der schnellen Umsetzbarkeit in der direkten Korrelation der Messwerte zu realen physikalischen Systemgrößen und der schnellen Adaption auf unterschiedliche Schweißparameter und -prozesse.
A combined experimental numerical approach is applied to determine the transformation induced plasticity (TRIP)-parameter K for different strength low-alloy steels of grade S355J2+N and S960QL as well as the super martensitic filler CN13-4-IG containing 13 wt% chromium and 4 wt% nickel. The thermo-physical analyses were conducted using a Gleeble® 3500 facility. The thermal histories of the specimens to be tested were extracted from corresponding simulations of a real gas metal arc weldment. In contrast to common TRIP-experiments which are based on complex specimens a simple flat specimen was utilized together with an engineering evaluation method. The evaluation method was validated with literature values for the TRIP-parameter. It could be shown that the proposed approach enables a correct description of the TRIP behavior.
Die in dieser Studie vorgestellte einfache Probengeometrie zeigt sich in Verbindung mit der
angewandten Versuchs- und Auswertemethodik geeignet, um den umwandlungsplastischen (TRIP)-Parameter K unter Verwendung des thermomechanischen Simulators Gleeble® 3500 experimentell zu bestimmen.
Der TRIP-Parameter K wurde für die Grundwerkstoffe S355J2+N und S960QL, sowie für den hochlegierten Zusatzwerkstoff CN13-4 -IG bestimmt.
Die numerische Einflussanalyse zeigt, dass bei der Berechnung von (Oberflächen-)Schweißeigen-spannungen die Vernachlässigung des TRIP-Effektes kaum einen Einfluss auf die Längseigenspannungen hat. Im Gegensatz da zu resultieren gegenüber dem Referenzfall signifikante Abweichungen der
Quereigenspannungen im und um den Schweißnahtbereich.
Die Verdopplung des TRIP-Parameters K gegenüber dem Referenzfall hat nur einen vernachlässigbaren Einfluss auf die Längs- sowie Quereigenspannungen auf der Oberfläche.
Für eine qualitative und quantitative numerische Nachbildung der experimentell bestimmten Längs- und Quereigenspannungen ist die Berücksichtigung der Größenordnung des material-abhängigen TRIP-Parameters K notwendig.
Numerical Sensitivity Analysis of TRIP-Parameter K on Weld Residual Stresses and Weld Distortion
(2016)
A combined experimental numerical approach is applied for a sensitivity analysis of the transformation induced plasticity (TRIP)-parameter K on welding residual stresses and welding distortion for the welding of the low-alloyed high-strength S960QOL with the high-alloyed hig-strength filler material CN13-4-IG. A thermo-mechanical FE model of a real GMA welding process was experimentally validated against termperature field, X-Ray stress measurments and optical distortion measurement. Within the sensititvity analysis K was varied and the influence on the calculated welding residual stresses and welding distortion is evaluated by performing corresponding FEA. The correct order of K magnitude is necessary in order to reproduce the residual stresses qualitatively and quantitatively. For the sufficient reproducing of the welding distortion the transformation induced plasticity can be neglected.
Numerical sensitivity analysis of TRIP-parameter K on weld residual stresses for steel S355J2+ N
(2016)
A combined experimental numerical approach is applied for sensitivity analysis of the transformation induced plasticity (TRIP)-parameter K on weld residual stresses for welding of structural steel of grade S355J2+N. K was determined experimentally using the Gleeble 3500 facility. A thermomechanical FE model of the real welding process was experimentally validated against temperature field and X-ray stress measurements. Within sensitivity analyses K was varied by several orders of magnitude and the influence on the calculated residual stresses is evaluated by performing corresponding FEA. The correct order of magnitude is sufficient to reproduce the residual stresses qualitatively and quantitatively.
Selecting a welding process for a given application is crucial with respect to the sustainability of part manufacturing. Unfortunately, since welding processes are evaluated by a number of criteria, preferences for one or the other process can be contradictory. However, the prevalent procedure of weight assignment for each criterion is subjective and does not provide information about the entire solution space. From the perspective of a decision maker it is important to be able to assess the entire set of possible weightings and answer the question which welding process is optimal for which set of weights. This issue is investigated by means of a weight space partitioning approach. Two welding processes are considered with respect to three criteria that reflect their economic and environmental performance. In order to find the most sustainable welding process the underlying weight space partition is evaluated.
Increasing performance and energy efficiency of Gas Metal Arc Welding by a high power tandem process
(2016)
Standard Gas Metal Arc Welding (Standard GMAW) and a high power Tandem GMAW (TGMAW) process are evaluated with respect to energy efficiency. Current, voltage and overall equipment power are measured and energy consumption is determined. The new key performance indicator Electrical Deposition Efficiency is introduced to reflect the energy efficiency of GMAW processes. Additionally, wallplug efficiency of the equipment is determined in order to identify the overall energy consumption. Results show that energy efficiency as well as economic process performance can be significantly increased by application of the TGMAW process. Furthermore findings indicate that wall-plug efficiency of the equipment is independent of power level and material transfer mode. A metal plate of 30 mm thick structural steel is joined by Standard GMAW and TGMAW to demonstrate the total energy savings for a real weld. Electricity consumption is reduced by more than 20 % using the high power TGMAW process.
A combined experimental and numerical approach is applied for a numerical analysis of the non-uniform martensitic transformation kinetic on welding residual stresses and distortion of a single pass weld. The (γ → α)-transformation kinetic within the weld pool region is governed by a non-uniform distribution of the elements chromium and nickel. The single-pass weld was performed by use of the low-alloyed high-strength steel S960QL with the high-alloyed high-strength filler wire CN 13/4-IG®. A thermo-mechanical FE model of the welding process was experimentally validated against temperature field, solid phase distribution, transformation behaviour, X-Ray stress measurements and transient optical distortion measurements.
The experimentally determined and calculated weld residual stresses and transient distortion are in good agreement. It can be shown that the change on the (γ → α)-transformation kinetic driven by the inhomogeneous distribution of the chemical contents causes a strong influence on the weld residual stresses within the volume of the weld pool, which could promote crack propagation within the solidified weld pool by use of high-alloyed filler materials. Furthermore, a significant influence on the development of the transient welding distortion is visible. This influence should be respected during numerically calculation of welding distortion in case of multi-pass welding using interpass temperatures and high-alloyed filler materials.
