Advanced Applications of Microplasma Welding
Journal Title: Biuletyn Instytutu Spawalnictwa - Year 2018, Vol 62, Issue 5
Abstract
The article discusses microplasma arc applications in welding, surfacing and remelting processes, describes the effect of microplasma arc and its burning conditions as well as presents the properties and the application range of plasma welding. In addition, the article presents examples of microplasma welded joints of thin elements and discusses the application of microplasma arc in surfacing and remelting as well as indicates advantageous features of plasma arc and its application potential as an alternative to other welding power sources.
