Abstract
Formulation of the term of stability of the GMAW process is offered. Objective indicators of stability are considered and analysed. A set of indicators of the process stability is suggested for each welding method and character of metal transfer.
 
 
Keywords: arc welding, metal electrode, welding process quality, welding process stability, indicators of stability
