Weldability of Stainless Steels - Two Day Course

Need Help Understanding the Processes and Parameters Required for Successful Stainless Steel Welding?

Stainless steels are usually specified because of their enhanced corrosion resistance, high temperature oxidation resistance, or their strength. With various types of stainless steel available, there are specific welding processes and techniques that must be employed to ensure that the corrosion and oxidation resistance, and other mechanical properties are not impaired. This two day course will give participants a working knowledge of the welding metallurgy and weldability of stainless steels. Attendees will walk away with an understanding of the various types of stainless steel, and how to pre-heat, weld and post-heat treat them without introducing imperfections, causing cracking or otherwise disrupting their beneficial mechanical properties.

About the Presenter: Dr John Lippold

Dr Lippold is Emeritus Professor in the Welding Engineering Program at Ohio State University (OHU). He retired from OSU in 2016 after more than 20 years. He received his Bachelor, Master and PhD degrees in Materials Engineering from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. He worked at the Sandia Livermore Laboratory in California for seven years, and at the Edison Welding Institute for 10 years. Over the past 40 years, Dr Lippold has been involved in research activities designed to gain a better understanding of the welding metallurgy and weldability of engineering materials. Based on this research, Dr Lippold has published over 300 technical papers and reports and three widely used textbooks.
