Abstract
The present work investigates TIG in terms of strength and energy consumption during joining of dissimilar metal plates between 304 Stainless Steel and AISI 1018 Mild Steel. TIG welding basically promotes a sustainable environment because it consumes less energy. Energy conservation means to reduce imbalance between demand and energy supply that is necessary to protect ecological resources and natural environment. TIG welding is a precision welding process which makes possible for joining of thinner and lighter materials. Joining of various dissimilar metals becomes great interest owing to the different challenges that are posed by deviation in the material composition as well as the characteristics of the joined metals. The main objective is to optimize energy consumption and tensile strength by taking effective process parameters that are Current, Travel Speed and Gas Flow Rate and also determination of main influential process parameters on energy consumption and tensile strength by using Taguchi method. Contour plot has also been shown in this present investigation.
