Experimental And Numerical Investigations Of Pipe Orbital Welding Process :

The raw material selected for this experiment is a stainless steel 316L pipe. Alloy 316L is molybdenum-bearing austenitic stainless steel. Table 1 depicts the dimension of the selected pipe. For this research work, orbital welding machine (Fig. 2) set up with orbital welding closed head CA-75M as available at UNIVERSAL ORBITAL SYSTEM PVT. LTD. Dhayari, Pune used to perform all the experiments. After cutting the pipe stock into 18 numbers of pieces of 8 Inch length each the ends of all the ...
