Abstract
A method is suggested for determination of transportation lags in feedback circuit of automatic system for control of weld reinforcement formation process in MAG welding. Mechanism of emergence of two different transportation lags, i.e. formation of weld reinforcement height and width, which are revealed by measurements of its geometric parameters by a laser TV-sensor, has been investigated. To estimate the transportation lags, it is suggested using the regression formulae derived on the basis of computational experimental results. A mathematical model of the weld pool developed for conditions of item heating with the movable normal-circular heat source has been used as an object of the computational experiments.
