Abstract
T-shaped joint projection welding of large-cross section low-carbon steels was studied. It is shown that the programmable change of compression force at the stage of melting and solidification of welded joint metal allows increasing heat input into welding zone, avoiding defects occurrence in joint formation and obtaining higher mechanical characteristics of welded joint. It was established that control of compression force yields the greatest effect in welding large cross-section products, when welding machines do not have required power factor for welding under rigid conditions.
