Through sensing and processing the efflux plasma voltage signals,the quantitative relationship among the welding current,efflux plasma voltage and backside weld width of the weld was established. PAW experiments show that the efflux plasma voltage can reflect the state of keyhole and backside weld width accurately. The closed-loop control tests validate the stability and reliability of the developed keyhole PAW system.展开更多
