Welding Process And Quality Control of Fully Welded Ball Valves

I. Key Points of Welding Process
(I) Welding Materials
· Valve Body Material: Commonly used carbon steel or low-alloy steel, such as ASTM A105.
· Welding Wire and Flux: The welding wire should match the valve body material, and the flux should have good slag-releasing property to ensure the weld quality.
(II) Welding Parameters
· Current and Voltage: Adjust according to the material thickness and welding wire diameter to avoid overheating.
· Welding Speed: Keep it moderate to ensure fusion and reduce heat input.

(III) Welding Process
· Pre-heating and Inter-pass Temperature: Pre-heat to 75-100°C, and the inter-pass temperature should not exceed 150°C.
· Welding Sequence: Conduct multi-layer and multi-pass welding, starting from the middle to both ends.

III. Key Points of Quality Control
(I) Before Welding
· Material Inspection: Check the chemical composition and mechanical properties to ensure no defects.
· Groove Machining: Ensure precision and a smooth surface.
(II) During Welding
· Parameter Monitoring: Monitor the current, voltage, and speed in real-time.
· Defect Detection: Conduct real-time non-destructive testing and repair defects immediately upon discovery.
(III) After Welding
· Appearance Inspection: Check the fullness of the weld seam and the surface smoothness.
· Non-destructive Testing: Use ultrasonic and X-ray to detect the inside of the weld seam.
· Mechanical Property Testing: Conduct tensile, impact, and bending tests.
· Heat Treatment: Eliminate residual stress and improve toughness.
