Welded joint micro shear test

The welded joint is a relatively narrow area, and there is a layered structure distribution of the structure in this narrow area, which leads to a gradient distribution of properties in the area. In the previous welding technology research, the entire welded joint was roughly studied as the same structure, and the mechanical properties of the welded joint were generally qualitatively evaluated by conventional tensile test, bending test and notched impact test. This method can only roughly judge the strength index of the joint performance, but it can't do anything about its plasticity index. In order to quantitatively evaluate the strength index and plasticity index of the welded joint, and provide powerful data for the improvement of the welding process parameters, a micro shear test was carried out.


The shearing tool in the test system is a r12MoV material with high strength, high hardness, high hardenability and wear resistance for the straight knife edge, and the clamp for the micro-shear test can be firmly clamped during shearing. kind. After a test point has been cut, it must be possible to control the sample to move back and forth in the fixture, and the distance of the movement can be directly measured, that is, the shear gap can be large or small. The micro shear sample is a strip sample of (1.5 ± 0.02) mm × (1.5 ± 0.02) mm square.

Data acquisition system is included

Sintech30/G test machine and its associated computer system.

The micro shear test process is: using the processed shear sample

4% nitric acid corrosion to show the weld and heat affected zone; measure the length of each joint area with a tool microscope, select the test starting point, the shear spacing of the base metal should be larger than the weld and heat affected zone, specifically larger How much should be determined by the type of welding; adjust the software parameters in the computer system connected to the test device so that each shear point can directly obtain the shear strength, shear yield strength and cross-sectional indentation rate of the point; In the shearing fixture, tighten the nut and start cutting; after a little shearing, loosen the nut and rotate the spiral micrometer to move the specimen forward by a shearing distance and shear again; after the specimen is cut, The shear strength, shear yield strength and cross-sectional indentation rate obtained at each shear point were input into the Graftool software for data processing to obtain a performance gradient curve of the entire welded joint. The micro-shear test results of 45# steel electron beam welding joints are shown in Table 1.


This test system is suitable for performance testing of welded joints and for the evaluation of mechanical properties in any narrow area of ​​any heterogeneous material. At present, the shear distance of this test system can reach 0.1 mm by using the multi-sample variable starting point method.
