Abstract
Mechanized and automated processes of flux-cored wire arc welding and surfacing are ever wider applied in many countries in manufacture and repair of various products and structures in many industries and productions. Some advantages of flux-cored wire MAG process are considered, compared to solid wire MMA and MAG processes. One of effective applications of flux-cored wires, in particular, is main pipeline construction. Types of welding systems developed in a number of countries for making position butt joints of pipelines are given. 3 Tables, 12 Figures.
