Friction Welding
Friction welding is a solid-state welding process in which coalescence is achieved by frictional heat combined with pressure. The heat is generated by the friction between the two components surfaces, usually by rotation of one part relative tothe other. Then the parts are driven toward each other with sufficient force toform a metallurgical bond. The sequence is portrayed in the figure for the typicalapplication of this operation, welding of two cylindrical parts.

Welding Variables for Friction and Inertia Welding
(i) Relative speed(ii) Friction pressure
(iii) uration of heating (burn off)(iv) Forge pressure.
For most materials, there is wide range of combinationsof speed and pressure that may be used to give e!cellentmechanical and metallurgical integrity in the weld.

• Forge welding is a solid state welding process which produces
coalescence of metals by heating them in a forge and by applyingpressure or blows sufficient to cause permanent deformation at theinterface.
• "t is a crude method of welding and quality depends upon the s#ill of the welder.

Thermit welding differs from other welding processes principally in that the heating is obtained fromthe thermit chemical reaction rather than from fire or electric current. ' mi!ture of a %etallico&ide and finely divided al'%in'% were ignited. The two materials react e!othermically thereby
converting the mi!ture into a superheated mass of the metal itself and a slag. The superheated metalflows into a mood around the parts to be united and weld them into one homogeneous mass while theslag overflows on top of the mold. Thermit welding now finds only limited application, chiefly in therepair of large iron and steel castings, though it was the traditional method for %oining rails on site.

"##lications
For repairing fractured rails (railway trac#s). For butt-welding pipes end to end. For welding large fractured cran#shafts. For welding bro#en frames of machines For replacing bro#en teeth on large gears. For welding new nec#s to rolling mill rolls and pinions. For welding cables for electrical conductors. For end welding of reinforcing bars to be used in concrete (building)
construction.)
"d$antages The heat necessary for welding is obtained from a chemical reaction and thus no
costly power-supply is required. Therefore bro#en parts (rails etc.) can be weldedon the site itself.
Disad$antages Thermit welding is applicable only to ferrous metal parts of heavy sections, i.e.,
mill housings and heavy rail sections. The process is uneconomical if used to weld cheap metals or light parts.

Electron beam welding(EBM) is defined as a fusionwelding process whereincoalescence is produced bythe heat obtained from aconcentrated beamcomposed primarily of highvelocity electrons. As the
high velocity electrons strikethe surfaces to be oined!their kinetic energy changesto thermal energy therebycausing the workpiece metalto melt and fuse.

Electron beam welding
"he electron beam is produced in a high vacuum environment by an
electron gun! usually consisting of a tungsten or tantalum cathode! a
grid or forming electrode and an anode. A stream of electrons is
giving off from a tungsten filament heated to about ##$$o%. "heelectrons are gathered! accelerated to a high velocity and shaped
into a beam by the potential difference between cathode and anode.
"he beam is collimated and focusing by passing through the field of
an electro&magnetic focusing coil or magnetic lens. Beams typically
are focused to about $.#' to mm diameter and have a power
density of about $ k*mm#! which is sufficient to melt and vapori+e
any metal.

beryllium and tungsten can be welded successfully by this method but the weldconfiguration should be simple and preferably flat. 5arrow weld can be obtained with remar#able penetrations The high power and heat concentrations can produce fusion 2ones with depth-to-
width ratios of 67 with low total heat input, low distortion and a very narrowheat-affected 2one

The laser crystal (Ruby) is in the form of a cylinder, the ends beingflat and parallel to a high degree of accuracy and silvered to give
mirror-reflecting surfaces. There is a small aperture on the a!is ofthe crystal, through the mirror at the output end. 1hen the crystal ispumped with high-intensity white light from a !enon or #ryptonlamp, the +r ions in the crystal get e!cited. The e!cited ions possesmore energy and some of it are given as a red fluorescent light. Thislight is reflected bac#ward and forward in the crystal between the
two ends (mirrors), stri#ing more +r ions on the path. These ionsaffected by the collisions are each caused to emit their quota of redlight. There is a cumulative effect of the increasing red light e!istingmore and more +r ions, until the number of collisions is highenough to cause a burst of red light through the small aperture in
the mirror at the output end of the crystal. The beam produced ise!tremely narrow and can be focused to a pinpoint area by anoptical lens.
