Summary: | Aluminum 6061-T6 is one the aluminum alloys which is widely used in
engineering practice, such as automotive industry, piping, tanks, aircraft and
shipping, because of many advantages including light weight, high tensile
strength, corrosion resistant, able to shape and good weldability. Welding process
is widely used today. The problem often encountered when using a welding
method is the low strength of welded joints compared with the parent metal and
the presence of distortion, especially for thin materials, due to residual stresses
that arise during welding process. High tensile residual stress in welded joints can
lead to brittle fracture, stress corrosion cracking, and accelerate the propagation
rate of fatigue.
This study aims to determine the effect of preheat, static thermal tensioning
(STT), and transient thermal tensioning (TTT) on the quality of welding as
indicated by the test of micro structure, hardness test, tensile test and fatigue crack
propagation test of TIG welded joints of Al 6061-T6.
The results showed that the preheat, STT, and TTT can change the size and
shape of grains in the weld area and HAZ regions. Preheat, STT, and TTT can
increase the tensile strength and yield stress in the weld area. The highest tensile
strength occurs in the STT that is equal to 194 MPa, or increase by 43.5%
compared to the tensile strength of the weld without treatment. The highest yield
stress also occurs in the STT that is equal to 154 MPa, or increase by 104.4%
compared to the yield stress in the weld without treatment. Preheat, STT, and TTT
can increase the rate of fatigue life and fatigue crack resistance. The lowest rate of
fatigue crack propagation occurs at STT specimens with da/dN = 7,745E-12
(�K)4,099 m/cycle, while the highest rate occurs at specimen without treatment
with da/dN = 4,503E-13 (�K)6,992 m/cycle. |
