From the results obtained in the different tests, it was determined that the most suitable welding advance speed is 500 mm / min (with a contributed energy of 335.34 J / mm), this energy is the most suitable mechanical in the 5086-H116 alloy welding at an amperage of 148 A. At this energy level, the lowest loss of magnesium occurs; the particle size of Al3Mg2 is finer and easier distributed evenly on the α matrix, that allows obtaining the best mechanical properties.</p>}, number={3}, journal={Enfoque UTE}, author={Cabrera Escobar, José Omar and Cabrera Escobar, Raúl Vinicio}, year={2018}, month={Sep.}, pages={pp. 42 - 49} }
