To weaken the influence of the distance alteration, a method is put forward in the paper. The method is that the alternate wire-feed control is used for compensating the welding current. On the basis of theoretical analysis, a static numerical model for alternate wire-feed control is established. The experiments show that the model-based regulation of the wire feed rate can compensate the welding current and ensure the appearance of weld. When the alteration of vertical distance between the torch and the workpiece is greater, not only is the wire feed rate regulated, but the output voltage of the power source is adjusted to ensure the appearance and quality of weld.展开更多

The microstructure and boride morphology were investigated using optical microscopy （OM）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM） and X-ray diffraction （XRD）. The effect of WC/W2C on the microstructure was discussed. It indicated that the volume fraction of primary M2B phases has increased due to good nucleated cores of incompletely molten W2C particles provided by casting tungsten carbide or decarburizing reaction of WC powders. Abrasion resistance was evaluated by wet sand rubber wear tests and the wear mechanism was studied using SEM. It shows that primary M2B grains play a key role in improving abrasion resistance.展开更多
