摘要

This current work focuses on modeling and improving essential process parameters of Submerged Arc Welding (SAW) on IS-2062 steel utilizing the Taguchi method to improve weld quality and efficiency. This approach's primary advantage is in its methodical and cost-efficient process, which reduces trial-and-error trials, enhances the mechanical properties of the weld, and boosts production. The study is confined to IS-2062 steel and specific process parameters within controlled experimental conditions, which may vary in wider industry contexts. Notwithstanding these constraints, the results possess significant practical applicability in domains such as construction, shipbuilding, pipelines, and heavy machinery, where optimal welding parameters can minimize material waste, enhance weld dependability, and decrease total production expenses. To improve the efficiency and quality of the Submerged Arc Welding process, this research investigates parametric optimization of process parameters using the Taguchi technique. To improve weld bead quality and minimize flaws like porosity, undercut, and excessive spatter, the Taguchi approach is used to optimize critical process parameters of SAW, including welding current, voltage, travel speed, and wire feed rate. The study's overarching goal is to maximize the targeted weld properties while reducing undesired variances and flaws by determining their most important factors and ideal values. Identifying which process parameters are most important to optimize is the first phase of the investigation. Welding current, voltage, travel speed, and wire feed rate are the characteristics that are considered for optimization based on thorough literature research and preliminary experiments.
