The influence of kind and type of electrode wire, characteristics of its melting, as well as composition of shielding gas on welding and technological properties and technological quality of welds of joints of low-alloyed steels of increased and high strength is considered. The ways and means of achieving a consistently high technological quality of welds, increasing the efficiency of the process and reducing the level of gross evolutions of welding aerosol are noted. 14 Ref., 4 Fig.
Key words: mechanized arc welding, low-alloyed steels, electrode wire, welding and technological properties, weld quality, efficiency, welding aerosols
