THE WELDED JOINT'S GEOMETRICAL CONFIGURATION DEPENDENCE ON THE TORCH TILTING ANGLE IN THE CASE OF GMAW

The welded joints quality depends largely on technological parameters of welding regime chosen. In this paper are presented the results achieved in experimental research on influence of tilt angle of the torch at mechanized GMAW deposit, for short arc transfer. It shows graphs which indicates dependence of the tilt angle and some of the geometric elements of a deposit, bead width (B) and the weld bead height, as well their influence on the deposition direction (from left to right, coding L-R, or from right to left, coding R-L). Is note that changing the tilt angle of the torch produces significant changes in geometric characteristics of welding seams.
