The invention discloses a
welding process for surfacing a
Monel welding wire on the surface of low
alloy steel, and belongs to the field of hot wire TIG surfacing. The invention aims to solve the problem that
welding slag is easy to generate when a
Monel welding wire is subjected to surfacing on low-
alloy pressure vessel steel. According to the method, a hot wire TIG welding method is used, welding is conducted in the vertical upper welding direction, pure
nickel metal is selected as a
transition layer material between low-
alloy pressure vessel steel and a
Monel cladding layer, accurate control over the interlayer temperature is achieved by effectively controlling
welding process parameters and accurately adjusting welding heat input, and the welding quality is improved. A Ni-Fe
system is formed between the pure
nickel welding wire and the low-alloy
pressure vessel steel, and the pure
nickel welding wire and the low-alloy pressure vessel steel have good intersolubility and compatibility; and the
Fe content is low, so that the problem of incompatibility of Fe and Cu is effectively avoided, and low-melting-point eutectic substances which are easy to cause welding
slag are not easy to generate. And meanwhile, the
viscosity,
surface tension and fluidity of the
molten pool are more uniform and controllable, stable escape of gas and impurities is facilitated, and the
slag inclusion tendency is reduced. The overall metallurgical reaction is stable, and welding slag is eliminated.
