PULSED

 

CURRENT

 

WELDING

 

FUNCTION

 

This

 

function

 

is

 

designed

 

to

 

facilitate

 

control

 

over

 

welding

 

process

 

in

 

spatial

 

positions

 

other

 

than

 

downhand

 

position,

 

as

 

well

 

as

 

during

 

welding

 

of

 

non

ferrous

 

metals.

 

This

 

function

 

affects

 

directly

 

weld

 

metal

 

dilution

 

and,

 

consequently,

 

on

 

stability

 

of

 

weld

 

forming.

 

It

 

substitutes

 

movements

 

of

 

welder's

 

hand

 

to

 

some

 

extent,

 

which

 

is

 

especially

 

important

 

in

 

hard

to

reach

 

places.

 

It

 

also

 

somewhat

 

forces

 

drop

 

transfer

 

from

 

the

 

filler

 

wire

 

into

 

the

 

weld

 

pool.

 

Correct

 

setting

 

determines

 

weld

 

shape

 

and

 

quality

 

of

 

weld

 

forming,

 

thus

 

reducing

 

risk

 

of

 

porosity

 

and

 

grain

 

structure

 

of

 

the

 

weld

 

and

 

consequently

 

increasing

 

weld

 

strength.

   

In

 

order

 

to

 

implement

 

this

 

functions,

 

three

 

parameters

 

must

 

be

 

set

 

in

 

the

 

machine:

 

pulsing

 

power

 

[Po.P],

 

pulsing

 

frequency

 

[Fr.P]

 

and

 

mark

to

space

 

ratio

 

(or

 

duty

 

ratio)

 

[dut].

 

By

 

default,

 

pulsing

 

power

 

[Po.P],

 

which

 

is

 

the

 

key

 

parameter,

 

is

 

set

 

to

 

"OFF"

 

position,

 

i.e.

 

disabled,

 

while

 

pulsing

 

frequency

 

[Fr.P]

 

and

 

duty

 

ratio

 

[dut]

 

are

 

set

 

to

 

most

 

common

 

values

 

of

 

10.0

 

Hz

 

and

 

50%

 

respectively.

  

In

 

order

 

to

 

enable

 

this

 

function,

 

it

 

is

 

enough

 

to

 

set

 

pulsing

 

power

 

[Po.P]

 

to

 

a

 

value

 

above

 

zero.

 

This

 

parameter

 

is

 

set

 

in

 

percent

 

of

 

current

 

set

 

value

 

of

 

base

 

arc

 

welding.

  

Example:

 

welding

 

with

 

a

 

non

consumable

 

tungsten

 

electrode

 

of

 

2

 

mm

 

in

 

diameter,

 

set

 

base

 

value

 

of

 

arc

 

current

 

is

 

100

 

A,

 

and

 

pulsing

 

power

 

[Po.P]

 

=

 

30%,

 

while

 

pulsing

 

frequency

 

[Fr.P]

 

=

 

10.0

 

Hz

 

and

 

duty

 

ratio

 

[dut]

 

=

 

50%

 

by

 

default.

  

Result:

 

current

 

will

 

pulse

 

in

 

the

 

range

 

from

 

70

 

A

 

to

 

130

 

A

 

with

 

frequency

 

of

 

10

 

Hz,

 

pulses

 

will

 

be

 

of

 

the

 

same

 

shape

 

in

 

terms

 

of

 

both

 

magnitude

 

and

 

time.

  

The

 

duty

 

ratio

 

parameter

 

is

 

set

 

to

 

50%

 

by

 

default.

 

If

 

this

 

parameter

 

is

 

changed

 

to

 

a

 

value

 

other

 

than

 

50%,

 

current

 

pulse

 

time

 

and

 

current

 

pause

 

time

 

become

 

asymmetric:

 

by

 

default

 

duty

 

ratio

 

[dut]

 

=

 

50%

 

duty

 

ratio

 

[dut]

 

=

 

20%

 

duty

 

ratio

 

[dut]

 

=

 

70%

 

In

 

this

 

case,

 

the

 

machine

 

will

 

calculate

 

the

 

mode

 

in

 

such

 

a

 

way,

 

that

 

average

 

current

 

level

 

of

 

the

 

welding

 

process

 

will

 

be

 

at

 

the

 

level

 

of

 

the

 

set

 

base

 

arc

 

current

 

of

 

100

 

A

 

(as

 

it

 

was

 

set).

 

Accordingly,

 

heat

 

input

 

into

 

the

 

weld

 

will

 

remain

 

at

 

the

 

level

 

of

 

100

 

A,

 

but

of

 

the

 

welding

 

process
