Abstract:Small amount of active gases CO 2 and O 2 were added into pure argon inert shielding gas to improve the weld formation of pulsed-current narrow-gap gas metal arc welding (NG-GMAW) of mild steel. Their effects on droplet transfer and arc behavior were investigated. A high-speed visual sensing system was utilized to observe the metal transfer process and arc morphology. When the proportion of CO 2 , being added into the pure argon shielding gas, changes from 5% to 5%, the metal transfer mode changes from pulsed … Show more
