Titanium is a ?????? ?????? ???? that is popularly known for its resistance to corrosion, low density and strength.
For years, joining titanium pieces together has been a conundrum but in all the solutions implemented to resolve the problem, titanium welding proved to be the best.
The idea however of welding titanium implies a certain degree of complexity that will more likely be not understood by an ordinary consumer. This should not be a problem though since the world abounds in expert welders who are expected to take care of the technical aspect of the process.
Nonetheless, knowledge of the basics of titanium welding will prove to be quite helpful to a layman especially in cases of preparing the titanium prior to the actual welding process.
According to experts, the key to successful welding of titanium is in the preparation of the material. They even claim that 70% of it entails preparation, while only 30% accounts for the actual process.
Cleaning the material plays a very important part in ensuring the success of the welding process. Chemical cleaning must be undertaken. All airborne contaminants, oxides, oil, grease, and dirt must be removed from the material. Even natural oils coming from a person's skin must be removed.
In this regard, titanium welding is similar to aluminum welding. In the latter type of welding, cleanliness is also the key.
Another aspect of the preparation of titanium is the air that surrounds the titanium weld. During the process of welding titanium, the heat that spreads throughout the surrounding area known as the Heat Affected Zone (HAZ) must be prevented from getting in contact with the oxygen in the air. Therefore, aside from the use of pure argon, a confined place for welding may prove helpful.
In actual practice especially in production, a vacuum-controlled chamber is used as a place for welding titanium. Since there is no oxygen in a vacuum, the risk of reaction will unlikely occur.
Keeping in mind the above information will certainly ensure the high quality of the weld. It must be noted though that titanium welding is quite costly so even a welder himself must think twice in performing the process especially if he lacks experience in welding this element. This is recommended for those highly experienced in the field as well as those who underwent formal studies on the matter. In this regard, it is also good to advice consumers to hire only the services of expert titanium welders.
