  3. 6.1 Joining technology In general, joining components is usually classified as: Permanent or non-permanentjoining process • Permanent localized coalescence based on cohesionand/or adhesionbetween joining elements (Type 1), or • Geometrical elastic or plastic locking of the joining elements (Type 2), or • Using special joining elements like wedges, nails, bolts, ..etc. (Type 3).(based on generating stresses (elastic or plastic type) between the joined elements) PERMANENT NON-PERMANENT Chapter 6: Joining Process of Solid Materials - IE252

  4. 6.1 Joining technology In general, joining components is usually classified as: Permanent or non-permanentjoining process Chapter 6: Joining Process of Solid Materials - IE252

  5. 6.2 Joining technique based on cohesion and/or adhesion principles In cohesion: the elements are generally of the same metallic crystals and the coalescence is established by the supply of temperature or pressure or combination to create the required coalescence. Hence, the coalescence is based on atomic bonding forces between the two components. Friction and resistance spot welding process required: Supply heat + pressure In Adhesion : the coalescence between the two joining elements is established by bonding using surface physical forces. It is not necessary to have common metallic structure for the joining elements. Fusion welding process required: Supply heat only Chapter 6: Joining Process of Solid Materials - IE252 Adhesive bonding , soldering,

  6. 6.2 Joining technique based on cohesion and/or adhesion principles • To achieve a satisfactory joining process based on coalescence of cohesion or adhesion, two basicrequirements must be fulfilled: • The surfaces involved must be free of oxide layer, absorbed gases, and other contaminations. • The surfaces involved must be brought into intimate contact so that the bonding force activated. Chapter 6: Joining Process of Solid Materials - IE252

For example, resistant spot welding achieved by heating the two strips to forging temperature (below melting point) then applying pressure. Hence, the basic process of resistant spot welding are thermal (heating) and mechanical (plastic deformation).

  9. In fusion welding, the coalescence between the two joining elements is established by localized melting of the joining surfaces to create cohesion based. • Melting metal in the joining pool must be prevented or shielded from oxidation or possible contamination that result in porous weld will decrease welding strength. • Two type of energy are common in fusion welding, electric and chemical energies. 6.3 Fusion Welding Chapter 6: Joining Process of Solid Materials - IE252
