  • 摘要: 为了解决传统钨极惰性气体保护焊(gas tungsten arc welding,GTAW)熔透能力较低、焊接速度小及焊接生产率低的问题,提出了超高频可调多脉冲钨极氩弧焊(ultrahigh frequency adjustable multi-pulse gas tungsten arc welding, UFMP-GTAW)工艺. 该工艺的焊接频率最高达到100 kHz,电流的变化速率达到150 A/μs;在脉冲焊接电流波形中引入中间值电流阶段,使单个焊接周期内产生多个电流脉冲,脉冲波形各个阶段的时间与幅值均可调;建立了超高频可调多脉冲GTAW试验平台,拍摄不同频率时的超高频焊接电弧,并与超高频普通脉冲焊接电弧进行对比,在平均电流相同的情况下,超高频电流产生的高频效应使电弧具有压缩特性,可使得焊接电弧的温度分布更集中,其中,100 kHz的UFMP-GTAW焊接电弧的温度分布最集中;最后,用Q235钢进行了焊接试验. 结果表明,100 kHz的UFMP-GTAW工艺能够压缩焊接电弧,并获得更大的焊缝熔深.

     

    Abstract: To solve the problems of low penetration capability, slow welding speed, and low welding productivity of traditional gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW), the ultrahigh frequency adjustable multi-pulse GTAW (UFMP-GTAW) process was proposed. The welding frequency of this process could reach up to 100 kHz, and the current change rate reached 150 A/μs. By introducing an intermediate current stage into the pulse welding current waveform, multiple current pulses were generated within a single welding cycle, and the time and amplitude of each stage of the pulse waveform were adjustable. An experimental platform for UFMP-GTAW was established to capture ultrahigh frequency welding arcs at different frequencies, which were then compared with ultrahigh frequency ordinary pulse welding arcs. Under the same average current, the high-frequency effect generated by the ultrahigh frequency current gave the arc a compression characteristic, making the temperature distribution of the welding arc more concentrated. Among them, the welding arc of 100 kHz UFMP-GTAW had the most concentrated temperature distribution. Finally, welding tests were conducted on Q235 steel. The results show that the 100 kHz UFMP-GTAW process can compress the welding arc and achieve a larger weld penetration depth.
