Abstract

The objective of this study was to find optimum conditions for welding Titanium Molybdenum Alloy Archwires. Joint strength measurements, cold bend tests, and close-up photography of welded wire specimens were performed to establish the optimum welding conditions. Results of this study might be used to reduce the incidence of welding failures and to reevaluate the weldability of TMA wires.
