Investment Arguments
Capex in continuous welding segment to fuel further growth
AWLs welding consumables segment has an installed capacity of 52,000per annum (TPA), with 22,000 TPA for manual electrodes & 30,000 TPcontinuous electrodes. With the demand for continuous electrodes outpmanual electrodes, AWL has initiated a Rs 15 crore capacity expaprogramme which would add 10,000 TPA of capacity in the continuous elecspace in the form of adding special wires. This expansion is likely t
completed by FY11 which would take the total installed capacity to 62,000(22,000 TPA Manual Electrodes & 40,000 TPA Continuous electrodes).
The main purpose behind this expansion is to enable AWL to enter intogrowth & niche areas of welding applications which includes nuclear posuper critical boilers & some special steel applications. This would not onlyin widening its product profile but would enable the company to improvise omargins backed by low competition in these niche segments.

STUDY SECTION
What is an Electrode?
It can be any one of these:
The flux coated rod in manual metal arc welding The tungsten in TIG welding The consumable wire in MIG / MAG welding
Why use welding?
One of the most cost-effective methods of joining metal components Suitable for thicknesses ranging from fractions of a millimeter to a third of a meter Versatile, being applicable to a wide range of component, shapes & sizes Joints produced by welding are permanent, strong, leak tight, reproducible and readily inspect
Process of welding:
A large number of welding processes and techniques are available. No process is universally the best. Eachits own special attributes and must be matched to the application. Choosing the most suitable process requconsideration of a number of factors viz type of metal, type of joint, equipment availability, labour availability, of consumables, labour costs, etc.
Arc Welding Process: Arc welding uses a welding power supply to create an electric arc between an electrand the base material to melt the metals at the welding point. They can use either direct (DC) or alternating current, and consumable or non-consumable electrodes. The welding region is sometimes protected by stype of inert or semi-inert gas, known as a shielding gas, and/or an evaporating filler material. The process owelding is widely used because of its low capital and running costs. Some of the processes widely used ar
under:
Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) is an arc welding process in which coalescence of metaproduced by heat from an electric arc that is maintained between the tip of a consumable coveelectrode and the surface of the base metal in the joint being welded. SMAW is one of the widely uprocesses, particularly for short welds in production, maintenance and repair work.
Gas Shielded Metal Arc Welding (GMAW), also referred as Metal Inert Gas (MIG) welding or MActive Gas (MAG) welding, is a semi-automatic or automatic arc welding process in which a continuand consumable wire electrode and a shielding gas are fed through a welding gun. A constant voltdirect current power source is most commonly used with GMAW. Originally developed for wealuminum and other non-ferrous materials, GMAW was soon applied to steel because it allowed for lowelding time compared to other welding processes. Today, GMAW is the most common industrial welprocess, preferred for its versatility, speed and the relative ease of adapting the process to rob
automation. The automobile industry in particular uses GMAW welding almost exclusively.
Gas Shielded Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW), also known as tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding, arc welding process that uses a non consumable tungsten electrode to produce the weld (The tungelectrode is not consumed but produces the intense heat required to weld and a separate filler rod is ufor filling in the joint). The weld area is protected from atmospheric contamination by a shielding gas a filler metal is normally used, though some welds.

GTAW is most commonly used to weld thin sections of stainless steel and non-ferrous metals sucaluminum, magnesium, and copper alloys. The process grants the operator greater control over the than competing procedures such as shielded metal arc welding and gas metal arc welding, allowinstronger & higher quality welds.
Flux-cored arc welding (FCAW)
FCAW which is a semi-automatic or automatic arc welding process requires a continuouslyconsumable tubular electrode containing a flux and a constant-voltage welding power supply.externally supplied shielding gas is sometimes used, but often the flux itself is relied upon to generatenecessary protection from the atmosphere. The process is widely used in construction because of its welding speed and portability. The flux core in the tubular consumable electrode contains more thanflux. It also contains various ingredients that when exposed to the high temperatures of welding genea shielding gas for protecting the arc. This type of FCAW is attractive because it is portable and genehas good penetration into the base metal.
Submerged Arc Welding (SAW)
Submerged arc welding (SAW) is a common arc welding process which requires a continuouslyconsumable solid or tubular (flux cored) electrode. The molten weld and the arc zone are protected fatmospheric contamination by being submerged under a blanket of granular fusible flux consisting of lsilica, manganese oxide, calcium fluoride, and other compounds. When molten, the flux becoconductive, and provides a current path between the electrode and the work. This thick layer of completely covers the molten metal thus preventing spatter and sparks as well as suppressingintense ultraviolet radiation and fumes that are a part of the shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) proce
Current share of Welding Processes in India
The share of SMAW process though having decreased over the last decade still remains the dominant weprocess with the current share estimated at 65% while the share of GMAW has gradually gone up to 27%. share of SAW and GTAW / others have been hovering at around 7% & 1% respectively.
