Arc welding Control for Shaped Metal Deposition Process
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper is focused on the study and the control of a deposition process of robotic arc welding. The process consists of a SMD (Shaped Metal Deposition) system, that is a novel rapid prototyping tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding technique leading to near-net-shape, using a layer by layer deposition technique. An experimental setup has been properly implemented in order to study the system and to develop and tune the parameters of an automatic controller.

Submerged Arc welding process is automated and semiautomated high deposition down hand welding process not vertical or over welding process, The fundamental difference of this welding process is that the Arc is not visible it is submerged into the flux. Weldment is fully submerged the heat loss is minimum and the thermal efficiency is very high up to 80-90%. A constant power sources and control...
متن کاملMechanically assisted droplet transfer process in gas metal arc welding
Gas metal arc welding has been generally accepted as the preferred joining technique due to its advantages in high production and automated welding applications. Separate control of arc energy and arc force is an essential way to improve the welding quality and to obtain the projected metal transfer mode. One of the most eVective methods for obtaining separate control is to exert an additional ...
متن کاملHeat and mass transfer in gas metal arc welding. Part I: The arc
A unified comprehensive model was developed to simulate the transport phenomena occurring during the gas metal arc welding process. An interactive coupling between arc plasma; melting of the electrode; droplet formation, detachment, transfer, and impingement onto the workpiece; and weld pool dynamics all were considered. Based on the unified model, a thorough investigation of the plasma arc cha...
متن کاملAn evolutionary approach to parameter optimisation of submerged arc welding in the hardfacing process
Abstract: The Submerged Arc Welding (SAW) process finds wide industrial application due to its easy applicability, high current density and ability to deposit a large amount of weld metal using more than one wire at the same time. It is highly emphasised in manufacturing especially because of its ability to restore worn parts. SAW is characterised by a large number of process parameters influen...
متن کاملApplication of the Extreme Learning Machine for Modeling the Bead Geometry in Gas Metal Arc Welding Process
Rapid prototyping (RP) methods are used for production easily and quickly of a scale model of a physical part or assembly. Gas metal arc welding (GMAW) is a widespread process used for rapid prototyping of metallic parts. In this process, in order to obtain a desired welding geometry, it is very important to predict the weld bead geometry based on the input process parameters, which are voltage...
