Thermaltransport Phenomenon of Submerged Arc Welding Process

Original scientific paper In present work, thermal transport considering heat radiation by oval heat source shape and heat transfer of molten moving electrode was presented. In present paper, an analytical solution was presented by aggregating temperature increments caused by applying liquid metal and heat radiation of moving electrode. The assumptions for the study were heat source of temperat...

Monitoring of Arc Welding Process Based on Arc Light Emission

Visual Sensing Systems for Arc Welding Process

Visual sensing technology is widely used in welding practices because visual devices are decreasing in price, increasing in reliability and improving in image processing hardware and software. As the most studied welding sensor, CCD(Charge Coupled Device) is more suitable for quality control of welding process than other means of sensing devices because it can obtain both two dimensional and th...

Nonlinear interval model control of quasi-keyhole arc welding process

This paper addresses the development of a nonlinear model based interval model control system for the quasi-keyhole arc welding process, a novel arc welding process which has advantages over the laser welding process and conventional arc welding processes. The structure of the nonlinear model chosen was proposed based on an analysis of the quasi-keyhole process to be controlled. Because of the ...

Modeling and control of quasi-keyhole arc welding process

Quasi-keyhole is a novel approach proposed to operate the keyhole arc welding process. Because the method’s effectiveness depends on the amperage of the peak current used to establish the keyhole, this paper proposes adjusting the amperage based on the duration of the peak current, which equals the keyhole establishment time. A nominal model structure has been selected from those identified usi...
