Abstract
Technological features of consumable electrode pulsed argon-arc butt welding of 1.0-2.8 mm thick sheet aluminium alloys AMts, AMg2, AMg6, 1915T1 and AD33T1 were studied. The effect of welding modes on geometrical parameters of welds, their macrostructure and mechanical properties of welded joints is shown. Recommendations on welding technology are given.
