Abstract
The paper presents the results of studying the process of gas-shielded arc welding with flux-cored wires of metal-core type. The influence of mineral components of the flux-cored wire core and shielding gas composition on arcing stability and nature of metal transfer has been established, proceeding from the data of monitoring electrical signals.
Keywords: arc welding, metal-core wire, shielding gas, electric signals, statistical processing, investigation of process stability
