    INTRODUCTION

    Repair and maintenance of parts and

    components is a major activity in any

    process industry.

    Repair welding can be carried out as a

    logical procedure that ensures the part is

    usable and safe.

    INTRODUCTION

    Boilers are constructed in accordance to arecognized code and established fabrication

    and welding practice. IBR

    ASME

    If repairs are done with proper care orprecautions, it can avoid premature failuresand result in satisfied customers

    WHY REPAIR WELDING IS

    CARRIED OUTa. If there is an unacceptable defect

    existing in the weld region of thecomponent in service.

    b. If there is an imperfection in thebase material which when left in

    its place may impair the normalfunction of the component.

    c. Leads to failure if unattended.

    BASIC REQUIREMENTS OF

    REPAIR WELDING

    Better quality than the original weld.

    Requires more care than original weld.

    (Since it may introduce more defects

    during repair)

    PROBLEMS ASSOCIATEDWITH REPAIR WELDING

    Incomplete removal of defect.

    Introduction of new defect due to improper

    procedure, consumables, techniques.

    Microstructure, material or toughness degradation consumable, base material, HAZ crack. (Process

    Heat input)

    Residual stress and distortion. Unfavorable environmental conditions that are

    beyond control of welder, eg. Poor accessibility,

    position, wind, rain, fit-up conditions.

    APPROACH TO WELD

    REPAIRI. Establishing the cause of the initial

    weld defect:-Before attempting for a weld

    repair, know the cause and type of the

    weld defect already available, process

    and welder to be employed and other

    details related to the defect

  • 8/3/2019 Weld Repire

    10/91

    II. Selection of welder

    Use only IBR qualified welder for Pr partweld repair.

    Check

    Genuinity of the certificate

  • 8/3/2019 Weld Repire

    11/91

    Apart from verification of the certificate we

    can arrange for a mock up test for the

    welder & ascertain the suitability of thewelder.

  • 8/3/2019 Weld Repire

    12/91

    Do not attempt any welding if it is

    possible to avoid by resorting to dressing

    technique for defects like undercuts,notches which could be ground without

    affecting the performance of the

    components.

    III. Avoid welding wherever possible:-

  • 8/3/2019 Weld Repire

    13/91

    To remove the defect positively

    and properly, ensure the detection of the

    location of the defect by using properNDE method and mark it correctly.

    IV. Ensure the correct location of defect:-

  • 8/3/2019 Weld Repire

    14/91

    DEFECT LOCATION

    Visual inspection

    Evaluation by NDT

  • 8/3/2019 Weld Repire

    15/91

    Excavate a smooth and clean well

    shaped cavity for better accessibility byemploying air arc gouging, grinding or

    machining.

    V. Make clean and smoothsurface for welding:-

  • 8/3/2019 Weld Repire

    16/91

    DEFECT REMOVAL

    Carbon-arc gouging

    Chipping

    Grinding Machining.

    Flame cutting is not recommended due to the

    high heat input. When carbon-arc is used thetemperature of the base metal should be at

    least 212 F (100 C).

  • 8/3/2019 Weld Repire

    17/91

    DEFECT REMOVAL

    Defect be completely removed to sound

    metal.

    Free from cracks, shrinkage or porosity.

    Use of magnetic-particle or dye-penetrant

    inspection of the cavity is strongly

    recommended.

    Over Head- Electrode is held parallel to theholder.

    Small push angle & low travel speed

    Deep narrow groove. Large push angle & High travel speed

    Wide shallow groove.

  • 8/3/2019 Weld Repire

    For Wider Groove do weaving.

    Grind 1.60 mm to remove the carburised

    layer.

    For dia. 9.5 mm electrode use 350-600

    amps.

    Type of Groove : U or V.

  • 8/3/2019 Weld Repire

    31/91

    After the removal of defect by

    the above method ensure complete

    removal by again conducting anNDE.

    VI. Ensure complete removal of defect:-

  • 8/3/2019 Weld Repire

    32/91

    Avoid introducing new defects by

    taking extreme care and precautions

    while welding by employing proper and

    skilled welder, good fit-up, good welding

    conditions, techniques, consumables etc.

    Use preferably flat position welding

    wherever possible.

    VII. Avoid new defects:-

  • 8/3/2019 Weld Repire

    33/91

    There is possibility of degradation

    of the material in micro-structure ormechanical properties (Strength,

    Toughness) by employing improper filler

    wire, HAZ crack, process (Increase inheat input) etc.

    VIII. Micro-structure, material or toughness

    degradation:-

  • 8/3/2019 Weld Repire

    34/91

    Due to additional welding and heat

    input, the residual stress may be

    increased, which may result in distortion.

    IX. Residual Stresses and Distortion:-

  • 8/3/2019 Weld Repire

    35/91

    The conditions available for repair

    welding may be unfavorable viz. Poor

    accessibility, Awkward position, wind,

    rain, poor fit-up conditions etc.

    X. Unfavorable Environmental condition:-

  • 8/3/2019 Weld Repire

    36/91

    Precise control of heat input during

    welding viz. Preheat, Postheat, during

    welding and stress relieving afterwelding will control the distortion of the

    components.

    XI. Control the heat input:-

  • 8/3/2019 Weld Repire

    37/91

    Perform final NDE and evaluate.

    Ensure that the repair welding carried out

    is sound and defect free.

    XII. Final NDE:-

    WELDING PROCESS

    There are many welding processes availabletoday, from completely automatic

    "electroslag" processes to semi- automatic"Metal-Inert-Gas" (MIG) process.

    In this procedure the "Shielded-Metal-Arc-Welding" (SMAW) & GAS TUNGSTON ARC

    WELDING (GTAW) process will beconsidered .

    WELDING CURRENT

    SMAW process is usually DC Positive(Reverse Polarity).

    Any type of welding current generatorsmay be used. Most welding machineshave "rectifiers" with a capacity of at

    least 400 amps and a 100% duty-cycle.

  • 8/3/2019 Weld Repire

    46/91

    Electrodes

    Only low-hydrogen electrodes should be usedfor this process.

    In the AWS Classification the approvedelectrodes would be: EXX15, EXX16, andEXX18.

    It is important to keep these electrodesmoisture-free after removing from thecontainer. They should be stored in an ovenat 250 F (120 C) and used within one (1)hour after removal.

  • 8/3/2019 Weld Repire

    47/91

    Techniques

    The bead should be of the "stringer" type.Heat input should always be kept as low as ispractical.

    The welding pass sequence should beselected with the idea of keeping weldingstresses to a minimum.

    The welding sequence passes should beseparated as much as is practical.

    Interpass should be kept low by the use ofsmall-diameter electrodes and low weldingcurrent.

  • 8/3/2019 Weld Repire

    48/91

    WELDING PARAMETERS

    Selection of the proper electrode for theparticular base metal to be repaired

    Establishment of the correct preheattemperature to (a) maintain a low hardness inthe Heat-Affected-Zone (HAZ) and (b)minimize welding stresses

    Suitable interpass temperature to reduce theeffects of heating and cooling on thecomponents.

  • 8/3/2019 Weld Repire

    49/91

    Parameters

    Selection of the proper electrode is based onthe composition and mechanical properties ofthe metal to be welded.

    The composition of welding electrodescontains the same alloys i.e. manganese,nickel, chromium, molybdenum andvanadium.

    The carbon and silicon contents are lowerthan the base metal.

    Alloy content of the rod must be higher toachieve the same mechanical properties.
