Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of magnetic field control welding, and in particular relates to a device and method for assisting gas-shielded metal welding with an external magnetic field. Background technique [0002] The short-circuit transition welding process is an important process method of gas metal shielded welding, which has the characteristics of low heat input, small deformation, suitable for all-position welding and easy to realize automation. However, the disadvantages of poor arc stability, poor weld formation and large spatter of the conventional short-circuit transition process of gas metal arc welding also hinder its wide application. The reason is that the droplet transfer is a random process during short-circuit transition welding, which causes the short-circuit time and arc burning time to fluctuate within a certain range. This fluctuation will cause instability in the welding process and cause differences in welding q...
