Abstract:

Tungsten inert gas (TIG) arc welding–brazing has been recently developed and is being increasingly implemented in various industrial applications. Nowadays, this process gains much attention in joining of dissimilar metal combinations. This review paper explains the principles underlying TIG arc welding – brazing of dissimilar metal combinations and highlights the above benefits in a number of practical applications. The process mechanism of TIG brazing is different from the conventional welding processes and it will bridge the gap between the two substrates by the addition of fillers under the concentrated heat source of TIG electrode. TIG brazing technique is one of the best alternative process among the other joining process for effective joining of dissimilar metals, which have various melting temperatures and physical properties. It is very important to understand the process mechanism and its compatibility with the various dissimilar materials joining. The present study focuses on the addressing of progress of TIG brazing process in modern days and its applications in the various industries, and to bring the awareness to the manufacturers about the importance of this process from this review report. Keywords: Tungsten inert gas (TIG) arc welding–brazing, Dissimilar metals, Microstructures, Mechanical properties.
