En ocasiones, encontraremos algunas peque\u00f1as grietas en el cuerpo de la v\u00e1lvula que afectar\u00e1n el efecto de uso de la v\u00e1lvula de compuerta de acero fundido. Por tanto, es necesario arreglar estas peque\u00f1as grietas mediante soldadura.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cuando hay agua dentro de la v\u00e1lvula de compuerta de acero fundido, no se puede soldar si no se limpia primero el agua del interior. Adem\u00e1s, este m\u00e9todo de soldadura es dif\u00edcil porque hay que drenar completamente el agua antes de soldar. Es mejor utilizar soldadura de costura vertical debido a que la parte de soldadura es m\u00e1s gruesa. Adem\u00e1s, la cantidad de v\u00e1lvulas de compuerta de acero fundido en el mercado es muy peque\u00f1a. Para un componente de acero, no hay grietas despu\u00e9s de la soldadura.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tambi\u00e9n vale la pena se\u00f1alar que se pueden usar varillas de soldadura normales al soldar entre acero fundido y acero al carbono normal (como el acero con bajo contenido de carbono). El acero inoxidable debe combinarse con varillas de soldadura.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ZECO ha desarrollado su laboratorio de I+D para la innovaci\u00f3n y validaci\u00f3n del dise\u00f1o de v\u00e1lvulas est\u00e1ndar internacionales, incluidas las pruebas PT, MTUT y FE. ZECO es un equipo modesto y unido con m\u00e1s diligencia y emprendedor para mostrar integridad a los clientes. Si tiene alguna necesidad, bienvenido a consultarnos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">C\u00f3mo soldar hierro fundido frente a acero fundido<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>La soldadura con electrodo revestido es un excelente proceso para soldar acero fundido porque se tiene un alto control sobre el calor de soldadura. Es ideal para reparaciones r\u00e1pidas y trabajo de campo. Adem\u00e1s, es el mejor proceso para soldar metales con superficies sucias.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u00bfC\u00f3mo soldar hierro fundido?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Si va a dedicarse a soldar hierro fundido, siga los siguientes cuatro pasos antes de soldar:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Identificar la aleaci\u00f3n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Los tres grados principales de hierro fundido incluyen hierro gris, hierro d\u00factil y hierro maleable. Tenga en cuenta que tambi\u00e9n existe hierro fundido blanco, pero la mayor\u00eda coincide en que es imposible soldarlo con \u00e9xito.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>El hierro gris es la forma m\u00e1s com\u00fan de hierro fundido y presenta un desaf\u00edo para los soldadores cuando las escamas de grafito ingresan al ba\u00f1o de soldadura y causan la fragilidad del metal de soldadura.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>El hierro d\u00factil y maleable son menos fr\u00e1giles debido a sus diferencias microestructurales. Ambos tienen microestructuras de carbono esferoidales provenientes de sus procesos de fabricaci\u00f3n.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Limpiar bien la pieza de fundici\u00f3n.\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Las piezas fundidas deben prepararse adecuadamente antes de soldar. Retire toda pintura, grasa, aceite y otros materiales extra\u00f1os del \u00e1rea de soldadura. Luego aplique calor cuidadosa y lentamente a la zona de soldadura durante un breve per\u00edodo para eliminar el gas atrapado en el metal base.<br>Una t\u00e9cnica muy utilizada para comprobar la limpieza de la superficie es depositar una pasada de soldadura sobre ella. Si quedan impurezas en el hierro, la soldadura ser\u00e1 porosa. Puede repetir el proceso hasta que ya no haya porosidad.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Precalentar la fundici\u00f3n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>La principal raz\u00f3n para controlar el calor es la expansi\u00f3n t\u00e9rmica. Cuando el metal se calienta, se expande. Si todo el objeto se calienta y se expande al mismo ritmo, hay poca tensi\u00f3n. Sin embargo, crea tensiones y grietas cuando el calor se localiza en una zona afectada por el calor (HZ) relativamente peque\u00f1a. El precalentamiento minimiza el gradiente t\u00e9rmico entre el cuerpo de fundici\u00f3n y el HZ, lo que reduce la tensi\u00f3n de tracci\u00f3n causada por la soldadura.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Seleccione una t\u00e9cnica de soldadura adecuada\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Elija la t\u00e9cnica de soldadura m\u00e1s adecuada para la aleaci\u00f3n de hierro. Los tres procesos m\u00e1s comunes son la soldadura con electrodo, oxiacetileno y soldadura fuerte, siendo el electrodo el m\u00e1s popular.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Con la soldadura con electrodo revestido, tres electrodos de relleno primarios funcionan para el hierro fundido: aleaci\u00f3n de cobre, hierro fundido revestido y aleaci\u00f3n de n\u00edquel. Los electrodos de aleaci\u00f3n de n\u00edquel son bastante populares para el hierro fundido porque la soldadura de n\u00edquel-hierro es m\u00e1s fuerte y tiene un menor coeficiente de expansi\u00f3n t\u00e9rmica, lo que reduce las tensiones y aumenta la resistencia al agrietamiento.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dirija el arco el\u00e9ctrico hacia el ba\u00f1o de soldadura en lugar de hacia el metal base. Hacer esto minimiza la diluci\u00f3n. Utilice la configuraci\u00f3n de corriente m\u00e1s baja aprobada por el fabricante para ayudar a reducir el estr\u00e9s por calor. Precaliente las piezas a al menos 250 \u00b0F antes de soldar con cobre o hierro fundido o electrodos. No se necesita precalentamiento con electrodos de n\u00edquel.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u00bfC\u00f3mo soldar acero fundido?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Aprender a soldar acero fundido es un desaf\u00edo menor en comparaci\u00f3n con el hierro fundido. Esto se debe a que el acero fundido es acero al carbono o de aleaci\u00f3n que se ha fundido y moldeado con una forma espec\u00edfica. Sin embargo, aunque el acero fundido tiene propiedades similares al acero laminado, algunas diferencias hacen que sea m\u00e1s dif\u00edcil de soldar.<br>Aunque se puede soldar acero fundido mediante los procesos MIG o TIG, muchos expertos en soldadura recomiendan soldar con varillas E7018 para aleaciones bajas en carbono y varillas de acero inoxidable para piezas fundidas dif\u00edciles de soldar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Uno de los problemas al soldar acero fundido es evitar la distorsi\u00f3n. Aqu\u00ed hay algunas sugerencias para ayudar con eso:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Precaliente la pieza fundida: Las piezas fundidas pueden tener formas irregulares y las \u00e1reas m\u00e1s delgadas se calientan m\u00e1s r\u00e1pidamente. Concentre el calor en las regiones m\u00e1s gruesas.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Suelde por puntos con frecuencia.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Establezca el amperaje m\u00e1s bajo que producir\u00e1 una soldadura lo suficientemente fuerte.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Utilice la velocidad de desplazamiento m\u00e1s r\u00e1pida posible.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Utilice menos pases.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reduzca el tiempo de reutilizaci\u00f3n envolvi\u00e9ndolo en mantas de soldar o enterr\u00e1ndolo en la arena.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Algunos consejos m\u00e1s sobre c\u00f3mo soldar acero fundido con \u00e9xito:<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Limpie los bordes a soldar hasta el metal desnudo.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Precaliente el acero fundido si tiene m\u00e1s de 0.40% de carbono o si es acero de baja aleaci\u00f3n. El precalentamiento a 250\u00b0F evita que haya hidr\u00f3geno en la soldadura.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Si suelda en un ambiente fr\u00edo, precaliente las piezas fundidas con bajo contenido de carbono a 75 \u00b0F.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Si est\u00e1 reparando una grieta, taladre ambos extremos (1\/8 \u2033) y elimine la grieta esmerilando o ranurando.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<!-- Andy:h-related-tags -->\n<h2

The sediment becomes lodged between the gate that lowers and the inside of the valve body itself. Ball-type valves do not suffer from this problem, as they operate on a different principle than a gate that raises and lowers inside of the valve body.\r\n\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:heading -->\r\n<h2>Gate Valve Stuck Closed<\/h2>\r\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\nA gate valve for a property usually has to be closed if plumbing repairs or maintenance are needed inside the building. In some instances, particularly if the main control valve is a gate type valve, the valve may not close completely. In many cases a gate valve repair may be needed. But many times other remedies are available.\r\n\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:heading -->\r\n<h2>How to Open a Stuck Gate Valve?<\/h2>\r\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\nThe typical reaction when a gate valve will not close fully is to exert additional force on the handle. Using force to close a valve is absolutely the wrong response. Brute force can cause permanent damage to the valve and a loss of water supply to the building. If sediment or mineral deposits are preventing the gate valve from closing fully, there is a more sensible first step to take than brute force.\r\n\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\nThe first step if a gate valve will not close completely\r\n\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\nIf sediment or mineral deposits are preventing a gate from closing completely an attempt should be made to flush out the inside of the valve. The proper way to do this is to open a faucet on a sink inside the house so there is a flow of water. Then gently and repeatedly open and close the valve.\r\n\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\nIf the handle of the valve does not turn freely then loosen the packing nut just above the valve body and around the stem of the valve. Loosening it just one turn should be fine \u2013 just remember to tighten it back up when you are done. Every time you lower the gate some sediment will break free and be flushed away by the water flow. There is absolutely no harm or danger in how many times you do this as long as no excessive force is used.\r\n\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:heading -->\r\n<h2>How to Fix a Stuck Gate Valve?<\/h2>\r\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\nIf the gate valve becomes jammed or stuck and remains closed, the gate valve stops operating and blocks the water from entering the water tanks. To open a stuck gate value you need to follow the steps suggested below.\r\n\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:list -->\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Step 1: Finding the Valve\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>First, you need to find the valve. Check whether the problem is with the gate valve. A gate valve has the shape of a wedge. The water flows in a straight line in the gate valves. The flow of water is usually stopped by the valve (this acts like a gate). The gate valve does the following functions. When it opens wide, it leaves an opening for water to flow. The opening is of the same size as the pipe which is entering and leaving the valve.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Step 2: Problem Identification\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Stop the water supply in the valve which is creating the problem. Isolate the area where you are working. This is done to reduce the chances of further leaks. Check whether there are any external factors that are causing the valve to function inappropriately. Reasons may be due to excess cold or a damaged water line. Keep a bucket under the valve which is causing the problem, if it has to be removed and replaced. Some gate valves will not be opened and closed timely. This may affect the operation of the valve.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Step 3: Fixing the Valve\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>A light coat of penetrating oil or 3-in-one oil is applied to the valve and excess oil is wiped off using a waste cloth or rags. The oil must get to the threads. Using the wrench or a hammer, tap the valve and see if the valve opens. On the valve handle, channel locks or an adjustable wrench may be attached. Additional leverage can be achieved by using a rag or gloves that prevent slipping while working. Work in such a way that the surface remains stable. Use a pipe wrench for support so that it does not damage the neighboring pipes. The handle is then warmed by using a hair drier. You can also use a blowtorch if, extreme cold is the cause of the block.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<!-- \/wp:list -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:block {\"ref\":15781} \/-->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:block {\"ref\":15788} \/-->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:block {\"ref\":20648} \/-->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:block {\"ref\":20644} \/-->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:block {\"ref\":20646} \/-->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:block {\"ref\":20641} \/-->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:block {\"ref\":16760} \/-->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:block {\"ref\":16233} \/-->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:block {\"ref\":15809} \/-->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:block {\"ref\":15797} \/-->","parent":0,"count":4,"filter":"raw"},{"term_id":1943,"name":"Surfacing Weld","slug":"surfacing-weld","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":1943,"taxonomy":"post_tag","description":"<!-- wp:kadence\/tableofcontents {\"uniqueID\":\"_de8f7d-a5\"} \/-->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:heading -->\r\n<h2 id=\"h-what-is-surfacing-weld\">What is Surfacing Weld?<\/h2>\r\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\nSurfacing welds are welds that you use on surfaces for the purpose of replacement.\r\n\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\nSurfacing welding performed on a part of a construction equipment\r\n\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\nUsually, you\u2019ll perform it on surfaces that have been worn out by time, environment, or specific situations.\r\n\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:generateblocks\/button-container {\"uniqueId\":\"6d8495a3\",\"isDynamic\":true,\"blockVersion\":2} -->\r\n<!-- wp:generateblocks\/button {\"uniqueId\":\"3d442e11\",\"hasUrl\":true,\"target\":true,\"backgroundColor\":\"#0366d6\",\"textColor\":\"#ffffff\",\"backgroundColorHover\":\"#222222\",\"textColorHover\":\"#ffffff\",\"paddingTop\":\"15\",\"paddingRight\":\"20\",\"paddingBottom\":\"15\",\"paddingLeft\":\"20\"} -->\r\n<a class=\"gb-button gb-button-3d442e11 gb-button-text\" href=\"https:\/\/zecovalve.com\/contact\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>GET SURFACING WELD INFORMATION<\/strong><\/a>\r\n<!-- \/wp:generateblocks\/button -->\r\n<!-- \/wp:generateblocks\/button-container -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:heading -->\r\n<h2>Here is information on Hard Surfacing Welding<\/h2>\r\n<!-- \/wp:heading -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\nIn the list below we will list a few types of surfacing welding types\r\n\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\r\n\r\nHard Surfacing (or surface welding) has somehow become a trade secret.

Simply put, it\u2019s literally just welding a reinforced layer to a piece of metal. Generally, surface welding is done on metal surfaces that tend to wear down quicker.

It is welded to the base material, and generally takes the form of specialized electrodes for arc welding or filler rod for oxyacetylene and gas tungsten arc welding (TIG) welding. Powder metal alloys are used in (PTA) also called powder plasma welding and thermal spray processes like high-velocity oxygen fuel coating (HVOF), plasma spray, spray, fuse, etc.SAW, FCAW, and MIG \/ MAG use continuously fed wire varying in diameter depending on the process and the current Strip cladding process uses strips from 50 mm wide to 125 mm with a thickness of 0.5mm.
