This conference can be an effectivetive inteinterface between the global scientific community and customer’s needs.. More adadvanced, high-end manufacturing will require a stronger focus on innovationovation—particularly in processes, markets, products, services, delivery and business and management models. More manufacturers are likely to be engagedngaged in research and development (R&D), design, production of prototypes, andd the smasmall-scale manufacture of complex, high value added goods. Success in this new envirenvironment will require new and higher level skills, particularly science, technology,chnology, engineering and mathematics skills. Raising skill levels, including by employinemploying a larger proportion of university graduates, will be critical to success;cess; as wwill stronger collaboration between manufacturers and universities to ensurensure the supply of skilled graduates and drive innovation through research. I wish all participants to discuss thee need of nnew materials and technology to raise the standards of society in generalal and enhenhancement of research needs to the developing country like India duringg conferenconference.

Thee ggrowing threat posed by competitors in China and other Asian Countries offeffering low prices has compelled us to undertake an urgent review of new prododuction system. The first is “flexibility to address change”. Because of the shortrt life cycles of computers, obile phones and other electronic equipment, we cannot survive without constantly developing new products. The second mmotto is “more competitive products for the global market”. The third motto is ‘co‘comfort of the society”. Of equal importance is an understandanding of both advanced manufacturing technologies and the latest computerr bbased design procedures , essential for product commercialization from the coconcept phase. Technological, economic and environmental pressures will ensureure that the demand for materials experts will increase in the future. I wish thatt pparticipants will address new materials and manufacturing

The annealed AA-6063 alloy was processed up to three passes of MDF at ambient temperature. Three passes of this process were also applied to the solution-treated AA-6063 at ambient temperature and 177 ◦C. Microstructural investigations demonstrated that the MDF process led to a significant reduction in the average grain size as well as a considerable increase in the fraction of low angle grain boundaries. Texture analysis revealed that copper and Goss textures were mainly developed within the annealed and solution-treated samples of AA-6063, respectively.

  • Welding of Magnesium Alloys
    Chapter 6 Welding of Magnesium Alloys Parviz Asadi, Kamel Kazemi-Choobi and Amin Elhami Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/47849 1. Introduction Magnesium is the sixth most abundant element on the Earth’s surface, with virtually inex- haustible supplies in the oceans. It is the third most plentiful element dissolved in seawater, with an approximate concentration of 0.14% (Busk, 1987). Over recent years the industrial output of magnesium alloys has been rising by almost 20% per annum. Magnesium and its alloys, as the lightest structural material, are about 40% lighter than aluminium and as much as about 78% lighter than steel. It is demonstrated that using magnesium alloys results in a 22–70% weight reduction, compared to using alternative materials (Kulekci, 2008). Magne- sium alloys have excellent specific strength, excellent sound damping capabilities, good cast-ability, hot formability, excellent machinability, good electromagnetic interference shielding, and recyclability (Haferkamp et al., 2000), (Mordike and Ebert, 2001), (Pastor et al., 2000). Moreover, magnesium ignites with difficulty in air due to its high heat capacity. Some disadvantages of magnesium are presented based on the following, Low elastic modulus; High degree of shrinkage on solidification; High chemical reactivity. Additionally, these alloys have limited fatigue and creep resistance at elevated temperatures (Mordike and Ebert, 2001). Because of the hexagonal close-packed (HCP) crystal structure, magnesium alloys also have a limited ductility and cold workability at room temperature (Sanders et al., 1999). These alloys have about the same corrosion resistance in common environments as mild steel, but are less corrosion resistant than aluminium alloys (Busk, 1987).

One such area, where alloys with complex compositions are already found, is in filler metals used for joining. In soldering (<450 ◦C) and brazing (>450 ◦C), filler metal alloys are taken above their liquidus temperature and used to form a metallic bond between two components, which remain both unmelted and largely unchanged throughout the process.

Dept, Mallareddy Engineering College, Secunderabad, India4 Abstract: The present work aims to evaluate the effect of Gas Tungsten Arc Welding process parameters on the depth of penetration of the given specimen. In this study, TIG welding parameters influence on weldability of 5052 aluminium alloy specimens with dimension of 100mm long x 50mmwide x 2.5mmthick is investigated. The welding parameters such as arc voltage, welding current, welding speed, gas flow rate and heat input are taken into account which influence the depth of penetration measured after welding. Keywords: AA5052, Arc voltage, Welding current, Gas flow rate, Heat Input, Welding speed. I. INTRODUCTION TIG welding was demonstrated first by Russell Meredith in 1930 during second world war for welding aluminium and magnesium in aircraft industry [1]. Welding technology has obtained access virtually to every branch of manufacturing; to name a few, ships, rail road equipments, building construction, boilers, launch vehicles, pipelines, nuclear power plants, aircrafts, automobiles, pipelines. Welding technology needs constant upgrading and with the widespread applications of welding [2]. Welding is a fabrication or sculptural process that joins materials, usually metals, or thermoplastics, by causing coalescence.
