Development of a Welding Shrinkage Estimation Method for High Accuracy Production in Marine Stainless Steel Exhausts<br />CANWELD Conference14, Canada, Vancouver, British Columbia, September 28 – October 01, 2014

Development of a Welding Shrinkage Estimation Method for High Accuracy Production in Marine Stainless Steel Exhausts
CANWELD Conference14, Canada, Vancouver, British Columbia, September 28 – October 01, 2014

Material shrinkage is inherent to the process of welding of structures and components. We have established an accurate method for estimating weld shrinkage in advance so that it may be planned for in the design phase. This enables us to control the accuracy of our welding production system.
