Study of Titanium Foil Welding Using Micro-Plasma Arc Welding

Abstract:

Ultra-thin Titanium foil, which is widely used in manufacture of thin-walled titanium tubes, automobile parts, medical and other industrial fields, is an excellent structural material. Micro-plasma arc welding system which was developed independently by Shanghai University of Engineering Science was used in the experiments of welding Titanium foil 0.05mm thick. Welding experiments were carried out with matching parameters including welding current type, welding current value, pulse frequency, ratio of peak value and base value of pulse current, amount of lap and the other welding process parameters set constant, achieved one side welding both sides formation and got good welding formation. Based on these experiments, influences on welding quality induced by those factors are analyzed.
