Abstract
With high-speed welding inverter and precisely controlling the welding current with arc-bridge state, advanced pulse current waveforms can be produced to optimize the transfer characteristics of short circuiting transfer welding. In this paper, the images of droplet/wire, and the transient data of welding current and arc voltage were simultaneously recorded to study the influence of peak arcing current, background arcing current and tail-out time on the stability of short circuiting transfer process. It was found that maximum short circuiting transfer stability is reached under specific welding conditions. Any deviation from these conditions will cause abnormal rises in arc voltage indicating instantaneous arc extinguishing and greater spatter. Optimal welding conditions were obtained to achieve the maximum stability of short circuiting metal transfer process.
