The fillet weld will be shaped and inspected as a flat, concave, or convex cross section. This will be a requirement directed by the welding symbol on the engineering drawings.
In an engineering or manufacturing facility it is always useful to reference information or charts in a readily accessible format. Opening a phone or moving to a conference room simply to look at and discus a chart that should be displayed is a waste of time and can be fixed by simply displaying a large poster wall chart for all employees on a shop/factory floor or in an office.
Modeled welds can be added to a part and assembly file in Creo Parametric, but for communication purposes, adding weld symbols and requirements on an engineering drawing is more important. PTC makes it easy to add weld symbols by providing a suite of pre-generated symbols and an options dialog box to customize the symbol as needed per ANSI or ISO standards.
Each digital caliper, after being subjected to grinding dust, coolant splash, machining chips, and being handled by multiple people, has kept readings within .0005” of the target value. This means the calipers have not degenerated in accuracy at all with respect to the manufacturer’s given resolution and measurement accuracy numbers.
In a traditional manufacturing world full of accepted regulatory hurdles and requirements, it is tough to see a path where additive manufacturing will play a prominent role. Organizations such as the American Welding Society are working with companies and industry leaders to develop industry-wide standards on additive manufacturing. Standards such as these will pose as the starting point for integrating AM processes into traditional manufacturing.
Arc welding is the process of joining metals using the heat generated from an electric arc, requiring a grounding wire and an electrode. Conventional arc welding uses fluxes to shield the molten metal from becoming contaminated by the atmosphere around the weld...
