The effect of S content in welding wires on the arc stability was investigated, in the region of short circuit transfer and spray transfer. In the region of short circuit transfer, with increasing S content, average arcing time and average short circuit time were decreased. Therefore, droplet transfer frequency was increased, due to the reduction of arcing time and peak current at the moment of arc-reiginition was decreased, due to the decrease of short circuit time. In the region of spray transfer, the fluctuation degree of arc current and arc voltage became more stable, with increasing S content.

In this study, Hot-wire laser welding (HWLW) without keyhole which deposits filler material by feeding hot wire into the process zone has been performed to increase process performance. From the analysis of High Speed Imaging (HSI), for higher voltage, the process is prone to arc formation and drop transfer, which is disagreeable transfer mode. It is necessary that arc formation and drop (globular) transfer should be avoided by lower voltage. Therefore, continuous wire melting and transfer mode is preferred when adopting this process. The HWLW technique has high potential in terms of performance, precision, robustness and controllability for thick section of narrow gap.

$CO_2$ Welding which uses $CO_2$ instead of inert gas is most widely used in industrial sites. Welding rod for $CO_2$ Welding is roughly divided into solid wire and flux cored wire. $CO_2$ Welding has higher efficiency than any other welding methods, and also economic and speedy to handle, that's why is used frequently for welding general structures. As most of studies about $CO_2$ Welding are focused on metallurgical changes of successful joints, they developed theories about the change of configuration on weld parts. This study is especially focused on not only the change of configuration on weld parts, but also the change of the penetrating depth through changing the position of welding torch. For inspection, applied AWS A5.20 E70-1 among welding wires and fixed moving angles of torch, but controled the values of voltage and the position of welding. Also Automatic Feed Mechanism is used for exact movement of material, specimen is a piece of steel for general structures. By measuring and analyzing the configuration of sliced section and the values of welding leg length and welding throat after welding, the outcome about the changes turned out.

본 논문은 용접 산업현장에서 많이 사용 되는 $CO_2$ 용접에서는 차량내부 및 탱크내부 용접에서 제어 패널을 볼 수 없는 곳, 작업장이 먼 곳 등에서 용접사가 용접을 하면서 용접조건에 맞는 전류와 전압을 조절할 수가 없고, 전류와 전압을 조절하기 위해 용접을 중단하고 잦은 이동으로 용접 구조물의 순간적인 냉각에 의해 용접결함이 발생된다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 $CO_2$ 용접기 3종류를 각각 사용하여 원격제어 토치의 용접에 대해 SS400 용접구조용 압연강재를 사용하여 원격제어 토치와 기존 $CO_2$ 용접 토치를 V형 맞대기 수직자세로 용접실험을 실시하고 용접 부의 표면비드 상태의 형상을 육안검사 관찰하고 또한 이를 침투탐상검사 및 굽힘 시험을 통해 용접부의 외관품질에 대하여 중점적으로 수행하여 용접결함 감소 및 기존 상용용접기에 교체사용에 대한 성능 및 호환성여부에 미치는 영향에 대해 평가하였다.

얇은 판형 용접에 광범위하게 사용되는 피복아크 용접기는 용접전원으로 변압기를 사용하는 AC 아크용접기외 인버터를 사용하는 인버터 아크 용접기로 구분된다. AC아크용접기는 변압기를 사용하므로 전체시스템의 부피 및 무게가 커지며 변압기 탭조정으로 인한 최적 출력전압이 설정되지 않아 용접성는이 저하되는 단침이 있다. 이러한 단점올 개선히고 용접성능을 향상시키기 위하여 고속반도체 소자를 이용한 인버터 아크용접기가 많이 연구되고 있다. 인버터 피복아크 용집기시스템은 다이오드 정류기, 인버터, 고주파 변압기, 출력측 정류기 및 리엑터로 구성되어져 있는데, 입력전원측에 다아오두 정류기를 사용함으로서 고조파 다량 힘유 및 입력역률 저하등을 가져오며, 일정 듀티를 갖는 정전압제어방식을 이용하고 아크용접시스템 고유의 정전류특성은 변압기의 누설구조애 의해 실현하고 았다. 따라서 본 논문에서든 이상의 단점을 해결하기 위하여 PWM 컨버터를 적용하여 입력측의 고조파를 제거하고 입력역률 99% 유지할 수 있었으며, 또한 새로운 혼형제어기법을 적용하여 순시적인 용접 출력전압과 전류를 제어하여 용접 출럭전압과 전류를 일정하게 유지시킴으로서 AC아크용접기와 비교하여 스패터룹 70%감소시켰으며 무부하시 10%의 효율 상승을 가져왔다.

The weld quality of $CO_2$ arc welding is closely related to the arc stability. As the characteristics of the arc are excessively complex and nonlinear, it is not easy to make the arc model as mathematical form and to control the arc state to be stabilized. This paper was aimed to estimate the arc stability and to control for stabilizing the arc state in short circuit metal transfer mode of $CO_2$ arc welding. For these purposes, the behaviors of arc stability was investigated at different welding conditions using Mita's arc stability index, and the fuzzy control algorithm which uses the arc stability index as control imput and the arc voltage as control output was developed. In the control of the arc stability, the experiments of two cases were performed; the case of setting an initial welding voltage arbitrarily, the case of the step change in workpiece shape. Obtained results were as follows; Mita's arc stability index was able to be estimated qualitatively in the case of using the inverter type welding power source and the control performance for stabilizing the arc status was excellent in the case of existing step change disturbance.

In this study, the purpose finds out the best welding conditions for bonding of electric wire by ultrasonic welding. The material was plastic-insulating low-voltage-cabels for automobiles. The experiment varied the values of welding time and welding pressure and fixed the values of amplitude and energy. With the facts, the best condition for ultrasonic welding to achieve bonding exactly is gained according to the size of the cross-sectional area of the cable, and the adhesive intensity is greatly influenced by the variables of welding time and welding pressure. Also when the welding time and welding time and welding pressure increase as the cross-sectional areas of the cable increase the welding result in gained exactly.

The relationship between GMA welding conditions and the bead shape of overlay weld was studied by using ${\Phi}1.6mm$ hypo-eutectic metal-cored wire designed for hardfacing against the severe metal-to-metal wear. As the welding voltage increased, the dilution also increased but the sudden drop of dilution was observed at $30{\sim}33V$. It was considered to be due to the decrease of penetration resulting from the change of transfer mode, from short circuit to spray. It was also found that the behavior of penetration with welding current was dependant on the transfer mode. The short circuit mode exerted the penetration to decrease while the spray mode did it to increase with increase of welding current. The former was considered to be responsible for the remarkable decrease in dilution at low welding voltage region. The change of transfer mode also had an effect on the behavior of bead width with welding current but it did not on the bead spreadability defined as W/H ratio. It was considered that the optimal welding conditions for multi-pass overlay welding could be obtained from the bead spreadability suitable for bead lapping and the dilution as low as possible in the spray transfer mode.

Weld pool oscillation for the full-penetration GTA welding process was investigated for its possible application to weld penetration control through theoretical modeling and experiment. Energy method was used to estimate the natural frequency of the molten pool having the physically-acceptable weld geometry and oscillation modes. An unique experimental system was built which had the data acquisiton and video capabilities so that the pool oscillation signals and molten pool surfaces could be monitored continuously. Pool oscillation was detected through arc voltage and arc light emission simultaneously. The signal from arc light emission showed good coherence with that from arc voltage, and arc light generated the higher quality signal. The molten pool was found to oscillate in different oscillation modes based on the travel speed and weld geometry. The natural frequency estimated from the theoretical model agreed reasonably well with the experimental results.

Welding defects, such as porosity and spike, have sometimes occurred in deep penetration electron beam welds. These defects are known to be one of the serious problem in electron beam welds. So, effects of active parameters ($a_b$) on bead shape and occurrence of defects in electron beam welds of heavy section 9%Ni steel plates were investigated. Partial penetration welding in flat position, and deep penetration welding of 10 ~ 28mm depth were investigated in this study. It is desirable to select low accelerating voltage and above the surface focus position $a_b$$\geq$1.2 at which a wine-cup shaped bead is obtained to avoid the welding defects such as spike and root porosity. When the accelerating voltage of electron beam was low (90kV), active parameter ($a_b$) did not influence on the bead width, penetration depth and weld defects significantly. However, in case of high voltage ($\geq$120kV), active parameter ($a_b$) was sensitively associated with penetraton depth and weld defects, i.e. when the active parameter (($a_b$) was in the range of 0.6 to 1.0, the depth of penetration was always over the target (23mm), while the depth of penetration was dramatically decreased with further increase of active parameter ($a_b$). The weld defects were decreased with the increase of active parameter $a_b$ resulting in the decrease of energy density of the focused beam in the root part of fusion zone.
