MAG welding of eleectrical steel and structural steel
Abstract
Electrical (high silicon) steels are specifically developed steels for which the principle selection principle was based on physical properties, rather than mechanical properties. Four different MAG welded joints (S355/electrical steel with 1.78 and 2.94%Si) were tested. Best result was obtained for joint 4. Furthermore, in order to decrease difference in hardness between weld metal and base metals, a change of filler material is suggested. Also, in order to reduce overlap, a smaller diameter of wire is recommended. Finally, these joints are yet to be tested on eddy current and magnetic permeability, because they affect efficiency.
