It is found that the welding .speed, wire feeding speed and torch oscillating amplitude hare significant effects on the dopth-to-width ratio （D/W） of welds. The D/W ratio of welds increases significantly with the increase of welding speed without the oscillating of welding torch. It increased （from 0. 14 to 0. 26 ） with the increase of wire feeding speed while the torch oscillating. And it decreased linearly with the increase of torch oscillating amplitude. However, the influelwe of oscillating speed, wire extension and welding voltage on the D/W ratio of welds was not obvious.展开更多

The experimen...The effects of parallel and angular butt designs with different gap widths on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the resultant magnesium joints in gas tungsten arc welding were investigated. The experimental results displayed that the tensile strength of the joint made with angular butt joint and 0.3 ram-wide gap reached 266 MPa, the joint fractured through the heat-affected zone or base metal during tensile testing, and the microstructure examination showed that no macropore appeared in the fusion zone. However, macropores in diameter of larger than 200 micron occurred for other joint designs, the tensile strength of the resultant joints decreased, and the joints fractured through the fusion zone during tensile testing. The fracture surfaces were examined by scanning electron microscopy and the microhardness distribution in the joints was measured by using a Vickers microhardness tester.展开更多

The temperature field finite element numerical simulation model of twin arc movement is established. The loading form of twin-arc with double ellipsoid heat source is discussed. The molten pool temperature field of twin-arc submerged arc welding is calculated and analyzed under different process parameters. The law of molten pool characteristics influenced by the welding speed, current and voltage of twin-arc submerged arc welding parameters is analyzed. The relation between shaping feature of molten pool and weld formation is discussed according to the ratio of width to length. The results manifested that the width to length ratio of weld pool decreases with the improvement of welding speed, which result in gene- ration of weld defects. The width to length ratio of weld pool is increased by adjusting the proportion of the current, voltage and the distance of the two arcs, which avoids the generation of weld defects.展开更多

In this model, an addition pole is brought out by the sampling effect in the current loop gain, and it affects dynamic bandwidth and stability of the inner current loop. By selecting the appropriate stability parameter which determines the additional pole and describes the degree of peaking in closed loop transfer function, a control model of current programmed full bridge arc welding inverter with maximum frequency bandwidth and stability can be obtained. Small and large amplitude pulse current outputs are employed in simulations and experiments and results validate the design method.展开更多
