Adaptive Weaving Control

Automatic adjustment of the weaving width and frequency of the welding torch to a changing groove width. Ensures complete sidewall fusion.

Physicochemical mechanism of action

Adaptive weaving control adjusts the weaving motion of the welding torch to the groove size and shape. This improves control over the heat input pattern, leading to more uniform fusion of the metals.

Metallurgical relevance & risks when welding

Without adaptive control, varying groove width can cause inaccurate sidewall fusion, which may lead to incomplete fusion and potential cracks. Adaptive weaving control minimizes these risks through continuous adjustment.

Shop practice & instructions

To use adaptive weaving control, ensure the welding torch is updated to the latest software version. Set the adaptive control mode and monitor groove dimensions during welding. If groove width varies significantly, manual adjustments may be necessary.
