Abstract

Friction Stir Welding (FSW) was developed, it is successfully commercialized in the field of transportation vehicles. In this study, we analyzed the defects of A2024-T4 alloy using non-destructive test of radiograph, ultrasonic, electrical conductivity and destructive test of microstructure observation, tensile strength. As the results of experiment, mapping of defects was obtained. Fine defects which were not detected in radiograph test were detected in ultrasonic test, and it enabled efficient detection of defects by difference of sound pressure and color. The values of electrical conductivity was decreased as amount of defects was increasing. Joint efficient of defect-free weldment that found by non-destructive and destructive test was 91%. Therefore it was considered that non-destructive test of friction stir welded A2024-T4 Alloy was an efficient method.

마찰교반용접은 운송 분야 등에서 널리 상업화되고 있다. 본 연구는 마찰교반용접된 A2024-T4 합금의 결함을 비파괴검사(방사선투과검사, 초음파탐상시험, 전기전도도시험)와 파괴시험(인장강도 및 미세조직 관찰)을 실시하여 관찰하였다. 실험 결과 결함 분포도를 얻을 수 있었다. 방사선투과검사에서 발견되지 않은 미세결함이 초음파탐상시험에서는 발견되었으며, 초음파탐상시험은 음압의 차이와 그에 대응하는 색에 의해 결함의 정도를 검사할 수 있는 효과적인 방법이었다. 또한 전기전도도 측정값은 결함의 양이 많아짐에 따라 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 비파괴검사와 파괴검사를 통해 얻은 가장 건전한 조건의 이음 효율은 91% 이었다. 따라서 비파괴검사는 마찰교반용접된 A2024-T4 합금을 검사하는데 있어서 효과적인 방법이라 사료된다.
