INVESTIGATION OF PLASTIC DEFORMATION OF WELDED JOINTS IN FOOD ENGINEERING

Abstract

The paper considers the mechanism of plastic deformation of welded joints determined by the flow bands on low-carbon steel when welding elements of variable stiffness in food engineering. The influence of the width of the welded sheet metal on low-temperature plastic deformation is studied in the article, the shapes of plates that have lost stability are considered. The deformations of the sheet when it is welded to a rigid frame are presented. The parameters of the mode of mechanized welding in CO2 and the power introduced into the welded joint are given.
