The Influence of Oscillation Parameters on the Formation of Overhead Welding Seams in the Narrow-Gap GMAW Process

Thick-walled X80 pipelines for oil and gas transportation are difficult to relocate due to their large size. In the process of narrow-gap overhead welding, welding defects, such as bulges and lack of sidewall fusion, can appear easily. To avoid these defects and to improve the welding quality of thi...
