Abstract: Provided are a plasma-MIG welding method and a welding torch that are capable of reducing spatter amount without relying on control of a MIG welding power supply. The plasma-MIG welding method employs a plasma-MIG welding device configured from: a plasma torch section that includes a plasma nozzle and a plasma electrode; and an MIG torch that includes an MIG tip and a welding wire. The plasma torch section and the MIG torch are arranged so as to face in different directions at a predetermined distance from each other. The plasma-MIG welding method is characterized in that a plasma arc is made to locally overlap with a tip end portion of the welding wire, and in a state in which melting of the welding wire is promoted, MIG welding is carried out without short-circuiting between a workpiece and a tip end of the welding wire which is a consumable electrode.

Abstract: A plasma welding torch that can be reduced in size more than in conventional cases. When an inert gas G such as argon gas is supplied to an outer circumferential space around a non-consumable electrode 13, a portion of the inert gas G is used as plasma gas GP that forms a plasma arc PA between the non-consumable electrode 13 and a base material 2 via a plasma orifice 51. A plasma welding torch 1 moves, maintaining this state, in the direction of the arrow shown in FIG. 4. Meanwhile, a portion of the inert gas G supplied to a gas flowing part 21 is not used as the plasma gas GP but is used as shielding gas GS and is ejected onto the base material 2 ahead in the welding direction via a shielding orifice 52. The welding on the base material 2 is performed in a state where the plasma arc PA and the base material 2 are shielded from the air by this shielding gas.

Abstract: While steel sheets are positioned and held by a holding mechanism, a first laser beam is applied to a heating region of the steel sheet to space the steel sheet from the other steel sheet by a predetermined distance. A second laser beam is applied to a welding region to weld the steel sheets. An amount of heat applied by the first laser beam, a moving speed of the first laser beam, and a focused spot diameter of the first laser beam are set to keep the sheet irradiated with the first laser beam in an unmelted state and plastically deform the sheet.
