A Study on Welding Characteristics According to a Change in Filler Metal in CO2 Gas Arc Welding of Automobile Structural Steel(ATOS80)
The purpose of this study is to research into which characteristic is shown according to a change in filler metal in case of CO2 gas arc welding by using Automobile Structural Steel(ATOS80). The major characteristics of this study were experimented by having Bevel angle as 50°, Root gap as 3mm, Filler metal as Solid wire & Flux wire, and the projected length of wire as 15mm. This study made the welded test specimens for the KS specification in advance suitably for the conditions, thereby having comparatively analyzed with the data value that was obtained through tensile test, hardness test, impact test and Macro Structure Detecting. Arranging the results that analyzed finally, the tensile strength and the hardness appeared to be excellent in case of welding with flux wire. The impact strength was indicated to be superior in case of welding with solid wire.
