Abstract
A welding method for gas metal arc welding is provided with continuous electrode feeding and control for short arc welding and/or spray arc welding and also short pulsing in which the control cyclically alternates between short pulsing and short arc or spray arc welding, and time for carrying out the respective control being programmed by a user. A welding power source and software for carrying out this method are also provided.
Claims20
A welding method for gas metal arc welding with continuous electrode feeding, comprising
- process control for short arc and/or spray arc welding, and also for short pulsing for separating off essentially one droplet per pulse, wherein
- the process control according to the short pulse method is caused to alternate cyclically between this and the process control for short arc or spray arc welding without the arc being intentionally extinguished in between, and
- the time for at least one of these process control methods is determined by a time programmed in by the user.
