Abstract

The process of joining aluminum metal requires a special welding method. The use of GTAW welding is a suitable method for joining aluminum plates. This research is intended to analyze the tensile strength and microstructure of the GTAW Aluminum 6061 welding with various currents. The research method used in this research is experimental research. Welding current variations used in this study were 100A, 115A, and 130A, then tested using a destructive test, tensile test. The data analysis used in this study is descriptive analysis, where the data obtained are averaged and then described and concluded. The results of microstructure research on GTAW welding show that changes in the microstructure are very visible in the HAZ area and the weld metal, the greater the heat input, the more spread the Mg2Si grains will be. Good structural dispersion only occurs at 130A current. This is different from the base metal which does not change the material structure at all. Based on the tensile test, the tensile stress value is 80.9 MPa at 100 A current, 84.9 MPa at 115A current variation, and the highest tensile strength is 86.7 MPa at 130A current. So, it can be concluded that the higher the current used, the better the microstructure and tensile strength produced.

Abstract

The Overlay welding process is a coating technique that is carried out using the welding process. In this study, a coating was conducted on carbon SA 516 gr. 70 with stainless steel electrodes. Welding was carried out with the GTAW and SMAW processes. The electrode used in the first coating for GTAW was ER309L while for SMAW was E309L. The next coating used in the GTAW electrode was ER316L and the SMAW electrode was E316L. In both welding processes, testing was carried out on mechanical properties and corrosion rates. Testing was carried out to determine mechanical properties, namely bending testing. This was done based on ASME IX. Bending test results in both processes are declared accepted because there are no defects. In testing the corrosion rate using the three-electrode cell method based on the ASTM G102 Overlay welding process with GTAW has a slower corrosion rate of 0.00890 MMPY compared to the overlay welding process with SMAW.
