Modern quality management systems for welding products are based on procedures to minimize the likelihood of typical defects. The reasons for deviations of the energy parameters of the welding process include disturbances along the length of the arc or its breaks associated with a spasmodic change in the electrode wire feed speed, violation of the power circuit with the welded product, mains voltage, and shielding gas consumption. To establish a connection between deviations of the welding parameters with the quality indicators of the welded joints, a model for the formation of a weld seam under the conditions of technological disturbances has been developed. It is shown that the formation of the crater depends not only on the duration of the arc break, but also on the welding parameters. It has been established that in the presence of lateral oscillation of the electrode, an arc break significantly increases the undercut, the maximum depth of which movesto the center of the groove to the cutting center as the break duration increases. Whereas an increase in the amplitude of lateral oscillation of the electrode causes a significant increase in the depth of the crater.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
