In recent years, domestic and foreign welding students research various high-efficiency and high-quality welding methods successively, but the application field of submerged arc welding is not greatly influenced.
At present, welding materials such as steel plates with the thickness of more than 80mm are applied more and more in the actual industry, and although the original single-wire submerged-arc welding and double-wire submerged-arc welding can realize the connection of thick plates, the multi-layer and multi-pass welding of the thick plates causes large heat input amount, so that the crystal grains of a welding seam structure are large, and the mechanical property of a joint is influenced. The multi-wire submerged arc welding is a submerged arc welding method which uses more than two welding wires to complete a welding seam, and is characterized in that required energy is distributed to different welding wires during welding, so that one-step forming of a welding bead can be realized by using thinner welding wires, smaller welding current and larger welding speed, preheating of front wires and preheating of rear wires can be considered between adjacent welding wires, in the actual welding process, required welding seam shapes and sizes can be obtained by adjusting the arrangement mode, the welding wire interval, the welding wire inclination angle, the electric arc power and the like between the welding wires, and the multi-wire submerged arc welding supplements each other, so that the welding production efficiency and the welding seam quality are obviously improved.
Integrated cold wire submerged arc welding (ICE)TM) A cold wire is inserted between two parallel hot wires, and the welding wire is melted by the redundant heat of the hot wires. During welding. Two hot wires are driven by a direct current motor to feed wires at the same speed, cold wires are fed by an independent wire feeder, and the wire feeding speed of the cold wires can be independently controlled. The method can greatly improve the welding production efficiency, increase the welding speed, reduce the consumption of the welding flux and realize the low-cost welding with high efficiency and high quality. However, the core technology of the method is limited in foreign countries, the equipment cost is high, and in addition, for a large thick plate, because of the consumption of a cold wire, part of welding heat input is generated, so that the welding process still needs multiple layers and multiple channels, and the welding efficiency is reduced.
