INTRODUCTION
AIM: To be familiar with welding process and diff. types of welding
operations to be carried out in welding shop
TOOLS USED: Hacksaw, anvil, welding electrodes, protecting
glasses, scriber, welding set.
OPERATIONS AND PROCEDURE: The diff. types of operations
are:
1. CUTTING: The required raw material is cut from a huge piece
of iron.
2. DIMENSIONING: The dimensions were made on the material
with the help of scriber.
3. EARTHING: Now the work piece was earthed through the
welding set and was placed on the anvil for welding purpose.
4. WELDING: The work pieces were then welded with the help of
welding set by keeping the protecting glasses in b/w the eyes and
work piece.
PRECAUTIONS:
1. The work pieces should be put on the anvil in the position in
which we want to join them.
2. Welding should be done only by wearing protective glasses on
eyes to protect them from harmful radiations.
3. After the welding is over the job must be kept on the anvil until
it is not cooled down.
4. Replace all the tools used to their original places after the job is
completed.

15. P a g e | 15
Welding is a process of joining two materials with the help of
heat or pressure or by some other means. The cost of welding is
very less as compared to other processes.
TYPES OF WELDING:
FORGE WELDING: In this two metal pieces are heated upto the
plastic stage in the furnace. Then it is hammered so that a
homogeneous mixture is formed at the joint.
GAS WELDING:
Gas welding is the process in which a gas flame is used to raise
the temperature of the metals to be joined. The metals are heated
up to melting. The metal flows and on cooling it solidifies. A filler
metal may be added to the flowing molten metal to fill up cavity
made during the end preparation. Many combinations of gases are
used in gas welding but the most common of these is oxygen and
acetylene.
OXY-ACETYLENE WELDING:
This process can be used for almost all the metals and alloys used
for engg purposes. A temperature flame of 3200 degree Celsius
can be produced by this method. There are two systems of oxy-
acetylene welding.
1. High pressure system: In this process the oxygen and
acetylene are taken for use from high pressure cylinders.
2. Low pressure system: In this system oxygen is taken from low
pressure cylinder and acetylene is produced by the action of
calcium carbide and water.
Principle of oxy-acetylene welding:
A very hot flame is produced by burning of the gases coming from
the torch tip. The edges to be welded are heated to melting. A filler
metal is also added to complete the welding. This molten metal
mixture when solidifies on cooling forms a welded joint.

16. P a g e | 16
Apparatus:
1. Oxygen cylinder
2. Acetylene cylinder
3. Pressure gauge
4. Valve
5. Hose pipes
6. Torch
7. Welding tip
8. Pressure regulators
9. Lighter
10. Goggles
Oxygen and acetylene cylinders are filled with gases. Both
cylinders are attached with pressure gauges, regulators and
cylinder valves.
Applications:
All the metals can be welded with proper filler metals. Same
equipment may be used for cutting purposes.
Oxy-acetylene welding is particularly used for sheet metal work.
Advantages of oxy-acetylene welding:
1. Equipment is cheap.
2. It can be used for welding all metals.
3. Maintenance of equipment is very less.
4. It is a portable process.
5. It is specially used for sheet metal work.
Disadvantages:
1. It takes long time to heat the job as compared to arc welding.
2. Heat affected area is more.
3. Gases are expensive and difficult to store.

17. P a g e | 17
TYPES OF GAS FLAMES:
There are three types of gas flames:
1. Oxidizing flame
2. Carburizing flame
3. Neutral flame
1. Oxidizing flame:
When the volume of oxygen gas is more than that of acetylene
mixed into the torch then the flame produced is called oxidizing
flame. This flame is used for welding brass and also for cutting the
metals. The ratio of oxygen to acetylene varies from about 1.2 to
1.5.
2. Carburizing flame:
The ratio of oxygen to acetylene is 0.9 to 1. It is also called a
reducing flame and has a temperature of 3040 degree celsius.It is
used to join those materials which are readily oxidized.
3. Neutral flame:
When the ratio of oxygen and acetylene is equal, a neutral flame is
obtained. It has a temperature of 3250 degree celsius. It does not
react chemically with the parent metal and protects it from
oxidation.
Types of welded joints:
The type of joint is determined by the relative positions of the two
pieces being joined.
The following are the five basic types of commonly used joints:
1. Lap joint
2. Butt joint
3. Corner joint
4. Edge joint
5. T-joint
The figures of these joints have been given.
Welding Positions:

18. P a g e | 18
It is easiest to make welds in flat positions. The common welding
positions are:
1. Flat position
2. Horizontal position
3. Vertical position
4. Overhead position
Defective welds:
A weld not properly welded is a defective weld. A properly made
weld should have following characteristics:
1. The weld should not crack in the bend test.
2. Its appearance should be ripple like and not spongy.
3. It should not have cavities and the grain size should be uniform.
Defects in welding:
Some important welding defects are:
1. Cracked welds
2. Porous welds
3. Insufficient penetration
4. Non-uniform uneven weld
5. Warping

Some of t he machines are explained below:-
LATHE:-
A lathe is a powered mechanical device in which the work is held
and rotated against a suitable cutting tool for producing cylindrical
forms in the metal, wood or any other machinable material.
Parts of lathe:
1. Bed: It is a geavy rigid casting made in one piece. It is the base
or foundation of the lathe.
2. Headstock: It is permanently fastened to the inner ways at the
left hand end of the bed. It serves to support the spindle and
driving arrangements.
3. Tailstock: It is situated at the right hand end of the bed. It is
used to support the right end of the work.
4. Carriage: It controls and supports the cutting tool. It has the
following five parts:
 Saddle: It is a H-shaped casting fitted over the bed. It moves
along the guide ways.
 Cross-slide: It carries the compound slide and tool post; can
be moved by hand or by power.
 Compound rest: It is marked in degrees; used during taper
turning to set the tool for angular cuts.
 Tool post: The tool is clamped on the tool post.
 Apron: It is attached to the saddle and hangs in front of the
bed.
Lathe operations:
 Facing
 Rough turning
 Shouldering
 Radius turning

 Knurling
 Drilling
 Boring
 Counter sinking
 Counter boring
SHAPER:
It is a reciprocating type of machine tool intended primarily to
produce vertical, horizontal or inclined flat surfaces. The cutting
tool cuts only in the forward stroke.
Classification of shaper:
1. According to the type of the mechanism used for giving
reciprocating motion to the ram:
 Crank type
 Geared type
 Hydraulic type
2. According to the position and travel of ram:
 Horizontal type
 Vertical type
 Travelling head type
3. According to the type of cutting stroke:
 Push type
 Draw type
4. According to the type of design of the table:
 Standard shaper
 Universal shaper

Principal parts:
1. Base: It is made of cast iron to resist vibration and takes up high
compressive load.
2. Column: It is a box like casting mounted upon the base. It
encloses ram driving mechanism
.
3.Ram: It is a reciprocating member which reciprocates on the
guide ways above the column.
4. Cross-rail: It is mounted on the front vertical guide ways of the
column. it has two parallel guide ways on its top.
5. Table: It is made of cast iron and is rectangular in shape. It has
T- slots on its top surface.
DRILLING MACHINE:
It is one of the simplest, moderate and accurate machine tool
used in production shop and tool room. Its chief function is to make
holes. Drilling is the process of making hole or enlarging a hole in
an object by forcing a rotating tool called "Drill".
Operations performed:
 Reaming
 Boring
 Counter sinking
 Tapping
Classification of drilling machines:
 Hand drill - power operated
 Bench drilling machine
 Upright drilling machine
 Radial drilling machine
 Multi-spindle drilling machine

GRINDING MACHINES:
Grinding is a metal cutting operation performed by a rotating
abrasive tool, called “grinding wheel". Such wheels are made of
fire grains of abrasive materials held together by a bonding
material called a "Bond".
Grinding wheel:
It is a multi- tooth cutter made up of many hard particles known
as "abrasives" which have been crushed to leave sharp edges
which do the cutting.
Abrasives: these are substances used for grinding and polishing
operations.
Abrasives may be classified as follows:
1. Natural:
 Sandstone
 Emery
 Corundum
 Diamonds
2. Artificial:
 Silicon carbide
 Aluminum oxide
