Abstract: An arc welding method of a consumable electrode type generating arc between a tip end of welding wire and a to-be-welded portion by feeding welding wire to the to-be-welded portion of a base material while supplying welding current having average current of 300 A or larger to the welding wire, to weld the base material, includes: feeding the welding wire at a speed of the tip end being inserted into a space surrounded by a concave melted portion formed in the base material by the arc generated between the tip end and the to-be-welded portion; periodically alternating between a small current period where the welding current has a small average value and droplet is transferred from the tip end to a bottom part of the melted portion and a large current period where the welding current has a large average value and droplet is transferred from the tip end to a side part of the melted portion; and controlling the welding current in the large current period so that droplet transfer from the tip end to the side part

Abstract: An arc welding system of a consumable electrode type comprises: a wire feeding device that feeds welding wire from a wire feeding source to a welding torch; and a power supply device that supplies electric power between the welding wire fed to the welding torch and a base material, the system being configured to weld the base material by arc generated by the supplied electric power. The wire feeding device is provided with: an intermediate wire feeding source that is disposed between the wire feeding source and the welding torch and is configured to temporarily accommodate the welding wire fed from the wire feeding source and to feed the accommodated welding wire to the welding torch; a pull-out feeding part that feeds the welding wire at the wire feeding source to the intermediate wire feeding source; and a push-out feeding part that feeds the welding wire accommodated in the intermediate wire feeding source to the welding torch.

Abstract: A consumable electrode arc welding method using a shielding gas containing argon comprises: setting a first welding condition in which a first welding current is supplied to a welding wire; and setting a second welding condition in which a second welding current is supplied to a welding wire. The first welding condition and the second welding condition are welding conditions in which a reference current of the welding current is 350 A or higher and a current variation range is from 50 A to 150 A, and the first welding condition and the second welding condition are switched at a cycle of a frequency ranging from 1 Hz to 5 Hz.

Abstract: The welding method comprises: a step of preparing a first base material and a second base material; a step of disposing the first base material and the second base material in a manner such that a first end face of the first base material and a second end face of the second base material face each other; and a step of welding the first base material and the second base material together using GMA welding so that the first end face and the second end face are joined together. In the step of welding the first base material and the second base material together, an arc is formed in a state where the welding wire penetrates into a region surrounded by a molten region, so that the molten region is formed to pierce through the first base material and the second base material in the thickness direction.

Abstract: A consumable electrode type arc welding device that comprises a welding power source for supplying power between a welding wire and a base metal and a welding robot for moving and weaving a welding torch along a groove and that causes the tip end portion of the welding wire to progress into a space surrounded by a recessed molten part formed on the base metal to thereby weld the base metal . The arc welding device temporarily makes a transition to a non-buried state where the tip end portion of the welding wire does not progress into the space for a predetermined time period, acquires, from an arc sensor for detecting an amount of offset of a central position for welding from a position of the groove based on welding current flowing from the welding wire to the base metal , a detection result of the amount of the offset at least in the non-buried state, and corrects a position of the welding torch relative to the groove based on the detection result by the arc sensor in the non-buried state.
