Abstract

The high-speed double wire pulse metal gas arc (MAG) welding process possesses advantages of automation and high efficiency and quality. Thus, it attracts much more attention nowadays. To meet the requirements of the double wire pulse MAG welding process, a novel double wire pulse MAG welding inverter integrated with technologies, such as soft-switching, double closed loop control, and synchronic control, is produced. A complete performance test was done for the pulsed MAG welding power supply by using a computer testing platform. The results of the experiment indicate that the novel welding inverter has an excellent performance both in the dynamic and the static characteristics. Also, the synchronic control between the master inverter and the slave inverter is reliable.
