Abstract
The effect of welding current, arc voltage, electrode diameter, electrical stickout and flux type on the wire feed speed during AC submerged-arc-welding has been studied. The results show that wire feed speed is influenced by welding current, electrode diameter and electrical stickout. A mathematical model to predict wire feed speed from welding parameters has been developed from the data.
