The additively fabricated functionally gradient structures can be a potential replacement for conventionally manufactured structures via fusion welding techniques. A SS321/Inconel 625 functionally gradient material was processed by wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) process. The WAAM-formed SS321 comprises of equiaxed and …
SUS321 and SUS347 are the basic austenitic 18/8 steel (SUS 304) stabilised by Titanium (SUS321) or Niobium (SUS347) additions. These grades are used because they are not sensitive to intergranular corrosion after heating within the carbide precipitation range of 425-850°C. Grade 321 is the grade of choice for applications in the temperature
This work investigates the cut quality characteristics of SS321 using plasma arc cutting. The SS321 has a wide range of applications such as in chemical storage, exhaust manifolds of automotives and aircraft. The intricate shapes for this material are very difficult to cut using conventional machining process. Hence, plasma arc cutting is used. …
Welding SS321 to Mild steel. Welding of SS321 to mild steel or carbon steel shall be carried out using E309L or ER309L type welding electrode. SMAW welding can be done using E309L and TIG and MIG welding using Er309L type filler wire. ENiFeCr-3 type electrode can also be used to join 321 to carbon steel or low alloy steels such as Cr-Mo …
