Investigation on the Metal Transfer and Cavity Evolution during Submerged Arc Welding with X-ray Imaging Technology

The physical phenomena of submerged arc welding (SAW) conducted with a 1.6 mm flux-cored wire were investigated using X-ray imaging technique. Three kinds of metal transfer modes were confirmed in this paper, namely the front flux wall-guided droplet transfer, back flux wall-guided droplet transfer,...
