The welding power source used for the research is an inverter with a special current waveform control. It is shown that the spatter decreases at first then increases with each increase of the low current period, current increase rate and the maximum current limit. The test results are provided for welding of 1 mm and 3 mm mild steel at speed of 1.2 m/min. The stable GMA W-S process under high speed welding condition has been achieved by optimizing the parameters.展开更多

The simulation results are basically consistent with welding technical experiments. The simulation system can be used to simulate and test the current waveform control parameters with welding variables. By this simulation system, the influence regularities of the current waveform control parameters in the CO 2 arc welding droplet short circuit transfer process can be got. Moreover, the basic mode of real time current waveform control can be also established by the simulation testing.展开更多
