METAL

The weld metal had a yield strength of 543MPa and UTS of 652MPa. (W 7) (1)

Weld Metal = Metal de solda

 

Regions of partial mixing, were observed as transitional changes from parent metal to weld metal. (W 18) (2)

Parent Metal = Metal de origem

 

The arc energy can be used to melt the filler metal and bridge any joint gap, whereas the laser provides the penetration. (W 189) (3)

Filler Metal = Metal de preenchimento
