Resonance Fatigue of Low Modulus Materials
Resonance fatigue of tubular steel goods has become a relatively common method of testing fatigue life of full circumference welded joints. EWI has maintained a system for such tests for many years and has conducted several standard qualification programs of steel riser welds for offshore applications. However, we have also employed the resonance fatigue system […]

Orbital Welding: Don’t Be Afraid, It Can Be Your Friend
EWI is capable of performing orbital welding, a specialized welding process whereby the arc is rotated mechanically around a static workpiece such as a pipe in a continuous process. The technique was developed over 50 years ago, and with today’s modern technology is a sound, robust, and easy-to-use method of joining cylindrical components. These components can be […]

Reciprocating Wire Feed GMAW – An Advanced Short Circuit GMAW Mode
Reciprocating wire feed gas metal arc welding (RWF-GMAW) is a low heat input, precisely controlled variation of the GMAW process. With the RWF-GMAW process the wire is reciprocated in and out of the weld pool. The wire motion is synchronized with the current waveform to produce a weld that is characterized as having minimal if […]
