ACFM
- CORRECT ANSWERS - The alternating current field measurement (ACFM)
method is an electromagnetic inspection technique which can be
used to detect and size surface breaking (or in some cases near surface)
defects in both magnetic and non-magnetic
materials.
actual throat
- CORRECT ANSWERS - The shortest distance between the weld root and
the face of a fillet weld.
air carbon arc cutting
CAC-A
- CORRECT ANSWERS - A carbon arc cutting process variation that removes
molten metal with a jet of air.
arc blow
- CORRECT ANSWERS - The deflection of an arc from its normal path
because of magnetic forces.
,arc length
- CORRECT ANSWERS - The distance from the tip of the welding electrode to
the adjacent surface of the weld pool.
arc strike
- CORRECT ANSWERS - A discontinuity resulting from an arc, consisting of
any localized remelted metal, heat-affected metal, or change in the
surface profile of any metal object.
arc welding
AW
- CORRECT ANSWERS - A group of welding processes that produces
coalescence of work pieces by heating them with an arc. The processes
are used with or without the application of pressure and with or without filler
metal.
autogenous weld
- CORRECT ANSWERS - A fusion weld made without filler metal.
back-gouging
- CORRECT ANSWERS - The removal of weld metal and base metal from the
weld root side of a welded joint to facilitate complete fusion and
complete joint penetration upon subsequent welding from that side.
, Backing
- CORRECT ANSWERS - A material or device placed against the back-side of
the joint, or at both sides of a weld in welding, to support and
retain molten weld metal.
base metal
- CORRECT ANSWERS - The metal to be welded, often called parent metal.
bevel angle
- CORRECT ANSWERS - The angle between the bevel of a joint member and
a plane perpendicular to the surface of the member.
burn-through
- CORRECT ANSWERS - A term for excessive visible root reinforcement in a
joint welded from one side or a hole through the root bead.
buttering - CORRECT ANSWERS - One or more layers of deposited weld
metal on the face of a weld preparation or surface that will be part of a welded
joint.
constant current power supply
cc - CORRECT ANSWERS - An arc welding power source with a volt-ampere
relationship yielding a small welding current change from a large arc
voltage change.
