| Summary, etc. |
The Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) process is widely used in welding<br/>shops for a variety of fabrication and repair tasks, including tack welding. However, the<br/>traditional SMAW tack welding method can be labor-intensive and prone to<br/>inconsistencies, leading to potential productivity challenges and increased electrode waste.<br/>This study investigated the impact of SMAW tack welding practices on electrode waste<br/>and explored the advantages of implementing a cartridge-type welding gun system that<br/>utilized pre-loaded welding stabs. The research was conducted with a focus on welding<br/>shops located in the Sta. Mesa area of Manila, a hub for fabrication and repair services.<br/>The study quantified the amount of electrode waste generated during typical SMAW tack<br/>welding operations through a combination of on-site observations, surveys, and interviews<br/>with welding professionals. The findingsreveal that the manual nature of the process, along<br/>with the need to repeatedly strike and retract the electrode, can lead to significant material<br/>losses and increased operational costs. To address these challenges, this study introduced<br/>an innovative welding gun system designed to enhance efficiency and precision in welding<br/>operations. The system features advanced, ergonomically designed pre-loaded welding<br/>stabs and is accurately positioned. The study introduces a Cartridge-type welding gun that<br/>uses a shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) equipment to increase the efficiency of tack<br/>welding. By enabling faster and more dependable tack welds, the design enhances<br/>productivity, weld quality, and material efficiency while lessening the physical strain on<br/>welders. Suitable for materials such as galvanized iron and stainless steel, the prototype<br/>successfully identifies and weldstwo stacked thin metal sheets with a thickness limit of 0.5<br/>mm. Based on a demonstration film, the prototype, which was built using the proper<br/>equipment and materials, was assessed by 20 experts, including professors and welding<br/>specialists. With a high mean rating of 4.776 and a classification of "Highly Acceptable,"<br/>it demonstrated its promise in the thin sheet metal production, welding, and automotive<br/>industries. |
