Abstract

PDF

Microwave welding is a potential method for welding high-temperature materials such as Monel-400 metal sheets. This article discusses parameter optimization in microwave hybrid welding for improving joint quality. Experimental data on joint strength was captured with power level, welding time, and temperature as factors. A Random Forest Regressor model, an AI-ML technique, was employed to fit the experimental data to predict joint strength. Power level and welding time were found through experiments to have significant influences on joint strength, with temperature in second place. These outcomes are of great significance for optimizing welding parameters and improving the reliability of microwave weld processes for Monel-400 metal sheets.
