Method of magnetically impelled arc butt welding
First Claim
1. A method of pressure welding with heating by a magnetically-impelled arc during which parts to be welded are heated, while a moment of achievement of a required heating temperature at end faces of the parts being welded is determined, said method comprising:
- heating of the parts being welded, setting a reference value of voltage of the arc between the end faces of the parts being welded, the reference value corresponding to an optimal arc gap, and measuring arc voltage during welding and in a case of a discrepancy between the arc voltage and the reference value of voltage, moving one of the parts during welding depending on a mismatch value and sign to maintain the reference value of voltage and the optimal arc gap and a moment of achievement of the required heating temperature on the end faces of the parts being welded is determined by achievement of a specified value of movement of one of the parts during welding relative to the other part being welded so as to maintain the reference value of voltage constant during welding.

Abstract
A press welding process which can be used in such industries as car-making, production of hot-water boilers, industrial and civil construction, in construction of pipelines using small and medium diameter pipes, for welding parts with a solid and developed cross-section, as well as for joining parts to form a T-joint. A magnetically impelled arc butt welding is achieved, that, during heating, the controlled continuous displacement of the parts being welded is performed where the gap between the parts edges is kept constant. The value of the welding arc voltage is used as the parameter for the gap size adjustment, and the moment of achievement of the required temperature on the edges of parts being welded, is determined by the length of the relative displacement of the parts, and when the assigned values of displacement have been reached, the speed of the arc movement along the edges of the parts being welded, is programmed. An improved quality of the welded joints produced by magnetically impelled arc butt welding is obtained.
