Abstract
Transient processes occurring in high-voltage circuits of modern power sources of welding guns are considered. It is shown experimentally that with a pulsed change in the beam current the accelerating voltage oscillations in a power source based on the high-frequency transistorized converter exceed to a great degree the limits of requirements of standard ISO 14744–1:2000. The conclusion is made about prospects of equipping these power sources with control electron tubes when a key mode of operation is used.
Keywords: electron beam welding, high-voltage power sources, high-frequency transistorized converters, control electron tube, dynamic nature of loading, transient processes
