MAGNETIC PULSE WELDING IN PLANE GEOMETRY

摘要

The results of a study of the feasibility of magnetic pulse welding of flat conductors are given. Various inductor circuits and sheet configurations are investigated experimentally. An optimized inductor circuit for accelerating flat conductors by a magnetic field is presented and the necessary diagnostic equipment is developed. Results of experiments on the acceleration of flat conductors and production of aluminum-aluminum and aluminum-steel welded joints are presented. The characteristics of the welds are investigated.
