Abstract
The use of modern pulsed-arc welding technologies allows a significant improvement of the quality of welded joints. However, a large number of possible welding modes hinder the development and implementation of pulse technologies in modern production. This is associated with the fact that in pulsed-arc welding at least four independently variable parameters exist, which in totality requires a large number of experiments to determine their impact. To optimize the number of experiments in this study, the experimental calculation Taguchi algorithm for the process of pulsating arc welding using a high alloy welding material was implemented. The quantitative contribution of each variable welding parameter in the formation of the penetration depth is shown. The optimal welding modes were proposed, providing a set penetration depth. 15 Ref., 6 Tables, 4 Figures.
