[ABSTRAK
Pengelasan merupakan metode yang sering digunakan pada proses manufaktur darikendaraan taktis. Pengelasan dengan menggunakan metode gas metal arcwelding(GMAW) umum dilakukan pada paduan aluminium, dikarenakan minimnyakontaminasi dari udara dan memiliki kecepatan pengelasan yang tinggi karenaelektroda terumpan secara kontinyu.Pada penelitian ini dilakukan pengelasan dengan metode GMAW pada pelatkomposit Al-10Zn-6Mg-3Si yang diperkuat oleh 10 %Vol. SiC dengan menggunakanmetode squeeze casting. Parameter yang digunakan adalah arus, yaitu sebesar 180, 210,dan 240 A, dengan variabel tetap tegangan sebesar 22 V, dan kecepatan pengelasansebesar 180 mm/menit. Didapatkan variasi heat input sebesar 1.32, 1.54, dan 1.76kJ/mm. Pengujian yang dilakukan antara lain uji tekuk, uji keras, SEM, danmetalografi.Hasil yang didapatkan adalah dengan penambahan heat input pada proses pengelasan,kekerasan yang didapatkan semakin menurun karena dengan penambahan heat inputakan memperlambat pendinginan sehingga memperbesar butir.Ditemukan fasa Al4C3pada pengujian SEM, yang mengakibatkan penurunan kekuatan dari produkpengelasan. Fasa tersebut didapatkan dari reaksi Al dengan SiC pada temperaturdiatas 700oC, sedangkan temperatur pengelasan mencapai 2000o C.
ABSTRACT
Welding is one of the most common method used in joining ballistic vehicle bodystructure. Welding with gas metal arc welding (GMAW) is widely used for joiningaluminium alloy because of its low atmosphere contamination and continouslyfeeding electrode that results in high welding velocityThis research studied GMAW of Al-10Zn-6Mg-3Sicomposite reinforced by 10 %vol.SiC, produced by squeeze casting method. In GMAW, the current is varied to 180,210, and 240 A, with constant voltage and velocity of 22 V and 180mm/min,respectively. Therefore heat input used in this research is varied to 1.32, 1.54, 1.76kJ/mm. The characterization included bending test, microhardness test, danmetallography observation.The result shows that the higher heat input will decrease the hardness because itslowed down the cooling rate so that increased the grain size. Al4C3 was found onSEM observation, which decreased the strength of the weld products. Al4C3 wasproduced by the reaction of Al with SiC at 700 oC, which was lower than the weldingtemperature that exceed 2000 oC.;Welding is one of the most common method used in joining ballistic vehicle bodystructure.
