[MW:843] Re: Thanx & STT welding procedure

By Materials & Welding
The STT (Surface Tension Transfer) welding technique is relatively newer process & at site/ field level people yet to master. It specialise in its ability to provide smooth even rippled weld beads, free of spatter & consistently good fusion. It is ideal for sheet metal applications & successfully applied for root pass welding of open root joints. It has dual benefit of increasing the productivity with overall weld quality.
 
If are going for the first time, my advice is to get somebody who had previous experience with similar equipment (operator /welder) & good equipment vendor who can provide good technical support for all your initial problems.
 
Please find herewith the few literature with respect to STT.
 
To my knowledge STT is approved technique in Saudi Aramco & used in few pipeline projects.

Dear Sir S. N. Dave,
Thank yoy for giving us the information. I have another query this regarding STT welding process, does this effecient to use? Does S. Aramco will require another procedure to be approve? If it will require can you help me to gother information to make a procedure to STT welding process.
Thank you very much for the cooperation.

Re: [MW:34105] SA266 GR4N 4 Cycle SPWHT

By Materials & Welding
Hi,  You are correct, Minimum refers to the one cycle for which this part will expose until final work shop PWHT. hence mill test certificate shall include this.  Max. SPWHT, refers to additional cycles of heat treatment that are reserved for future repairs during equipment lifetime.  Again, these simulated no. Of cycles shall be specified in MTC.  The idea is we need to make sure that steel mechanical properties are not compromised upon exposure to multiple repairs (i e 4 cycles in your case).  One could say, if steel is subjected to 4 cycles and is ok, then it should by defacto be good for one cycle, yet, this is wrong assumption cause mechanical problems and microstructure of materials varies accordingly based on no. Of cycles for which material will expose. This is apparent in alloy steel and especially for impact test values as an example.  In your case, this forged CS with properties before PWHT can be understood to be " as forged" condition (i.e. Wit...

Heat tint (temper) colours on stainless steel surfaces heated in air // Heat tint

By Materials & Welding
Introduction The colour formed when stainless steel is heated, either in a furnace application or in the heat affected zone of welds, is dependent on several factors that are related to the oxidation resistance of the steel. The heat tint or temper colour formed is caused by the progressive thickening of the surface oxide layer and so, as temperature is increased, the colours change.   Oxidation resistance of stainless steels However, there are several factors that affect the degree of colour change and so there is no a single table of colour and temperature that represents all cases. The colours formed can only be used as an indication of the temperature to which the steel has been heated. Factors affecting the heat tint colours formed Steel composition The chromium content is the most important single factor affecting oxidation resistance. The higher the chromium, the more heat resistant the steel and so the development of the heat tint colou...
