In India, Lecturer invents welding technique
Interesting stuff from India...
Vadodara-based Vishvesh Badheka, a lecturer of the Maharaja Sayajirao (MS) University, has invented new welding technique that can reach into narrow gaps.
The narrow gap gas metal arc welding machine can be used in the fabrication of pressure vessels, shipbuilding, large machinery and the construction industry.
Explaining how the system worked, Badheka said a narrow gap stand is used to reach inside less than 12 mm gaps between plates. A thick plate fabrication (50 mm to 300 mm) requires a flat torch which can enter into a narrow groove. It is widely used in fabrication of pressure vessels, shipbuilding, building and construction industry and for large machinery whereas conventional torch will not enter into such small grooves.
The welding system gives high productivity because the cross-section area of groove is small and gives high quality welds because of low heat input during welding.
