In one aspect, a track shoe assembly may include a shoe plate having a shoe plate body including a shoe plate attachment surface, and at least two slots extending through at least the shoe plate attachment surface. The track shoe assembly may also include a grouser having a grouser body having a grouser attachment surface, and at least two tabs, integrally formed with the grouser body, the at least two tabs extending from the grouser attachment surface, and perpendicular to the grouser attachment surface, the at least two tabs of the grouser being configured to be positioned within the at least two slots of the shoe plate. In another aspect, a method of manufacturing a track shoe assembly may include forming a shoe plate as described above, forming a grouser as described above, and attaching the grouser to the shoe plate to thereby form a track shoe assembly.

Double magnetic coupling for two welding heads that work parallel and independent at the front and at the back, (N) and (S), in paramagnetic and diamagnetic materials.

In a method and device for assessing the quality of a processing operation, a workpiece with specific processing parameters is processed along a processing trajectory. The (X), wherein the processing result is measured by at least one sensor and at least one sensor signal is recorded and at least one quality parameter is determined based on at least one sensor signal and the at least one quality parameter is compared with quality parameter threshold values to assess the quality of the processing result. During the assessment of the processing operation quality, changes made to the processing parameters from target values during the processing are automatically taken into consideration, in that, instead of the quality parameter threshold values, quality parameter threshold values adapted to the changes in the processing parameters are determined, and the at least one quality parameter for assessing the quality of the processing result is compared with the adapted quality parameter threshold values.

A junction structure includes a first material that is a metallic material, a third material that is a metallic material and is weldable to the first material, and a second material which is a nonferrous metallic material or a nonmetallic material. The second material is sandwiched and fixed between the first material and the third material by lap joining. At least one of the first material or the third material has a weld zone where the first material and the third material are melted and joined together, and at least one exhaust groove or at least one exhaust hole around the weld zone. The at least one exhaust groove or the at least one exhaust hole penetrates a thickness of the at least one of the first material or the third material.

A flux-cored wire of the present disclosure has a steel sheath and a flux filled at an inside of the steel sheath, has a total amount of moisture by ratio with respect to a total wire mass of 300 ppm or less, has flux containing fluorides, and has an amount of the fluorides by ratio with respect to the total wire mass of, by total of values converted to F, 0.11 mass % or more and 2.50 mass % or less. If using the flux-cored wire of the present disclosure for welding, a stable weld shape can be obtained and, further, the amount of diffusible hydrogen of the weld metal can be reduced. For this reason, the flux-cored wire of the present disclosure can be suitably used for welding high strength steel such as ferrite steel.

A welding system that, using a junction at which a standing plate and a bottom plate meet as a welding line, makes an electrode weave centered on the welding line and thereby welds along the welding line. While weaving, the electrode moves forward in a welding advancement direction until a bottom-plate-side weaving edge. When the electrode arrives at the bottom-plate-side weaving edge, the electrode moves backward with respect to the welding advancement direction until a standing-plate-side weaving edge. The electrode repeats this weaving motion on the bottom-plate side and on the standing-plate side. The system can suppress occurrence of inferior bead appearance and of welding defects in horizontal fillet welding.

The present invention provides a lap fillet arc welding joint including a first metal sheet, a second metal sheet, and a weld bead. A region of the first metal sheet on one end side is bent. In a first direction, a position of a tip end of the bent region of the first metal sheet overlaps a region of the second metal sheet on one end side. In a second direction, an amount of deviation between a central axis of a region connected to the bent region of the first metal sheet and a central axis of the region of the second metal sheet on one end side is ½ times or less of average sheet thicknesses of the first metal sheet and the second metal sheet. A joint portion length is two times or more of the sheet thickness of the second metal sheet.
