INTRODUCTION

Originally Inert Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (Tungsten Inert Gas) is a type of arc
welding made the atmosphere control. Tungsten electrodes were used. Electrodes
only to produce an arc only. So, for the weld when the metal additional required to
weld, trunk filler rod should be fed to the weld area as methods done in oxy-gas
welding process acetylene.

During the welding process is a shield in the form of gas inert (argon & helium) is
used to block the welded from atmospheric air. Shield works for prevent oxidation at
the electrode tip, a puddle weld and the parent metal in the vicinity of the welded.

There are two types of commonly used welding nozzle weld TIG operation manually.
For welding use per current is low (less than 200 amperes) when welding thin
material, weld nozzles are usually of the type that can cooled in air conditioning. But,
for welding require more current than 200 ampere, the nozzle weld should be cooled
with water so that the electrodes do not become overheated.

THEORY

In TIG welding, electric arc occurs when electricity is passed to the tungsten
electrode. The distance between the tip of the tungsten electrode and the work piece
surface will cause a flow of electrons. The flows of electrons in turn produce arc and
high heat to melt metal.

TIG welding is done in a controlled atmosphere using a tungsten electrode which

serves to produce an arc to melt the metal. Direct current or alternating current of
high frequency is used to enable the resulting continuous and stable arc without
touching the metal electrodes. The arc is ignited by pressing the starter switch is
located on the blowpipe flame. Filler rod to feed and deposited into the cauldron of
molten metal as an additive. During extended inert gas welding gas cylinder through
the blowpipe from functioning as a shield to protect the molten crater of atmospheric
air trapped in it.

OBJECTIVE
There are several purposes for doing this report. Among them:

To gain experience and knowledge of the use of TIG arc welding and materials safe.

To discipline students using workshop should.

To provide exposure to the students about security is important.

Ensure that the students that they know how to use TIG machine and hand tools in
the right way

Improve the students during their patience do work piece.

Able to help students in the job environment requires skill.

SAFETY DURING WORK

Some of the measures that need to be done while in welding workshop are:
-

Well-dressed, neat and safe.

Wear goggles when welding. Goggles protect the eyes when students operate TIG
welding.

Do not look at welding with the naked eye as strong arc light can cause eye pain,
glare and juicy.

Put the lid onto the shirt before use TIG welding.

When wearing an apron workshop, always tie back not in front.

Remove watches, rings and bracelets as they can endanger yourself while using
welding conditions and cause injury.

Turn off welding before cleaning.

Always ensure TIG welding and hand tools are clean.

Make sure the floor is not greasy so as to avoid injuries from occurring.

For the boys, they should ensure their hair short and neat.

Before getting into the workshop the students must clad mechanical workshop.

Students who use TIG welding or equipment without the permission of the lecturer
will be disciplinary action.

In the event of any injury to the student, please report it immediately to a lecturer in
action further.

APPARATUS

FUNCTION

TIG Machine

Welding machine uses an alternating

current entry (AU) and produces
direct current (DC).

Tungsten electrode

Enhancer rod

used for drainage flow

Rod additive used to strengthen the

connection with the molten welding
rod into a cauldron of molten
enhancer.

APPARATUS

FUNCTION

Regulator and Flow Meters

There are three main parts of the

regulator, cylinder pressure gauges and
flow meters:
Flowmeter gas measure serves as a
gauge for the working pressure required.
There are readings on the outside while
the inside of the glass tube there is a ball
float that will be used to mementukan
pressure level of work required.
Meter readings will be taken at the
center of the ball ata at the top of the
ball.

Hose

Hose is used to transport the gas from

the cylinder to blowpipe. Hose is also
used to drain water conditioning to
blowpipe

Chipping Hammer

This welding and chipping hammer makes it

easy to clean and remove slag from all your
welds. The hammer features a cone-shaped
nose with a sharp, flattened point and a dual
beveled tail. A helical barrel spring handle,
unique to welding and chipping hammers,
has a hanging hook at one end so the tool
hangs easily from a peg board or nail.

Wire Brush
These bristles clean rust and paint off of
metallic objects. A wire brush works
moderately quickly, a wire brush will work on
surfaces that arent flat (unpleasant) and can
be best when you have to clean areas of
intricate metal work.

PROCEDURE
1) clean the workpiece to be in welding
2) using iron as the base of the workpiece
3) connect the earth line on iron material so that current can be discharged
4) set and adjust the appropriate protective gas and adjust the end point tungsten
5) upon completion of the current set on the machine ac / dc, take place at the base of
the workpiece metal
6) Next put the two workpieces to locate the ends of the material and do weld the nail
on the connection of the workpiece
7) Perform TIG weld to weld finish filling the space with the use of the rod.
8) Switch TIG weld and cover gas pressure when finished welding the steel connections
and cool the workpiece.
9) Clean the slag on the workpiece by using an air purifier to get results updates

DISCUSSION
Based on our project, there are a few errors that occurred on the parameter of work piece.
This error occurs because of a lack of experience on handling a welding machine. The
welding electrode does not melt straightly this is because of lack of experience handling the
welding machine.
As a result, the surface of welding line does not straightly attach the 2 work piece together
work piece. After a week in welding workshop, our groups finish completely our project but
have a little mistake in attaching the workpiece. This error can be avoided if there are more
time being given for doing practice.
CONCLUSION

From the results of this assignment I have learned many things during this project, especially
in dealing with TIG machine. This is because there are several steps that must be followed
before conducting proper welding
TIG is. For example, adjust the gas pressure which is suitable for welding workpiece. I also
use TIG welding as well although not mahir. Im as a student have to comply with all.
