Appearance and characteristics of non explosive short circuit transfer using basic electrodes

摘要

By means of high-speed photograph and synchronous oscillograph, the appearance and technical features of non-explosive short circuiting transfer using basic electrodes are investigated, and the conditions to form this metal transfer mode are discussed. It is shown that the metal transfer mode has its high frequency of droplet, short period of arc extinguishing and long arc igniting period. This metal transfer mode is expected for basic electrodes for its less spatter and higher deposition efficiency.
