Re: [MW:29253] Re: Incomplete fusion defect

Gents,

Thank you all your feedback , my question is still open ....IF can be occurs in vertical position(as shown in below) ?? we usually look in horizontal planar condition ???

Incomplete fusion in a GTAW weld is usually caused by the welder having 'poor technique'. 
  1st. He was not dwelling long enough in the side walls. When the arc / weld puddle moves into the side wall it literally washes out, or 'cuts' out a small amount of      the side wall. The welder must hesitate there to allow the 'weld puddle' to fill in the washed out area.

  2nd. The welder could be carrying to much metal, or in other words, the weld puddle could be to large and it is 'rolling' over' or not penetrating the previous weld pass in some areas and penetrating in other areas. 

  3rd. His amperage is to low.

Dear SMEs, 

I have a fair question , Incomplete fusion can be occur as vertical position (transverse) in 2" SS pipe weld joint in GTAW process  ?? If so what would be the root cause for it .

Looking forward your response 

Best regards

Suresh
