Abstract
Peculiarities of processes of arc spot consumable and non-consumable electrode welding of carbon and alloyed steels, non-ferrous metals and alloys are considered. Parameters of welding in active and inert gases and also the mechanical properties of overlap joints made by the given method are presented. Prospects of development of arc spot welding technology are outlined.
Keywords: arc welding, consumable electrode, pulsed-arc welding, non-consumable electrode, spot welded Joints, CO2, argon, mixture of gases, synergic control, welding technology
