Thereafter, the welding current Iw rises with a predetermined slope at the time of short circuit, and maintains that value when it reaches a predetermined peak value at the time of short circuit.
- the welding voltage Vw increases from the point where the welding current Iw reaches the peak value at the time of short circuit. This is because a constriction is gradually formed in the droplet at the tip of the welding wire 1 due to the reverse feed of the welding wire 1 and the action of the pinch force caused by the welding current Iw.

It is desirable. As a result, the timing at time t61 is during the forward peak period Tsp. If the current drop time Td is too short, the small current value period t61 to t7 becomes long and the arc state becomes unstable. On the contrary, if the current drop time Td is too long, even if a short circuit occurs, the current does not become a small current value, so that sputtering increases.
- the current drop time Td is set to an appropriate value according to the welding conditions.

- the timing for switching the welding current to a small current value is changed based on the voltage setting value in addition to the average feed speed setting value.
- the reference voltage set value is set according to the average feed speed set value, and the welding current is reduced based on the error amplification value between the voltage set value and the reference voltage set value. Change the timing to switch to the current value.

Step 2) A reference voltage set value corresponding to the average feed speed set value is calculated. Step 3) An error amplification value between the voltage setting value and the reference voltage setting value is calculated. The amplification factor is a function of the average feed rate set value. Step 4) The reference current drop time is corrected with the error amplification value, and the current drop time Td is calculated.
- the timing (current drop time) for switching the welding current to a small current value is changed based on the voltage setting value in addition to the average feed speed setting value.
- the reference voltage set value is set according to the average feed speed set value, and the welding current is reduced based on the error amplification value between the voltage set value and the reference voltage set value. Change the timing to switch to the value.

5)続いて、逆送ピーク期間Trp中は、上記の逆送ピーク値Wrpを維持する送給速度設定信号Frを出力する。
6)短絡判別信号SdがHighレベル(短絡期間)からLowレベル(アーク期間)に変化すると、逆送減速期間設定信号Trdrによって定まる逆送減速期間Trdに移行し、上記の逆送ピーク値Wrpから0まで直線状に減速する送給速度設定信号Frを出力する。
7)上記の1)~6)を繰り返すことによって正負の台形波状に変化する送給パターンの送給速度設定信号Frが生成される。
1)短絡判別信号SdがLowレベル(アーク期間)のときは、低レベル電流設定信号Ilrとなる電流制御設定信号Icrを出力する。
2)短絡判別信号SdがHighレベル(短絡期間)に変化すると、予め定めた初期期間中は予め定めた初期電流設定値となり、その後は予め定めた短絡時傾斜で予め定めた短絡時ピーク設定値まで上昇してその値を維持する電流制御設定信号Icrを出力する。
3)その後に、くびれ検出信号NdがHighレベルに変化すると、低レベル電流設定信号Ilrの値となる電流制御設定信号Icrを出力する。
1)短絡判別信号SdがHighレベル(短絡期間)に変化した時点から、短絡判別信号SdがLowレベル(アーク期間)に変化して予め定めた遅延期間が経過した時点までの期間中は、電流誤差増幅信号Eiを誤差増幅信号Eaとして出力する。
2)その後のアーク期間中は、電圧誤差増幅信号Evを誤差増幅信号Eaとして出力する。
3)その後のアーク期間中に小電流期間信号StdがHighレベルとなる期間中は、電流誤差増幅信号Eiを誤差増幅信号Eaとして出力する。
この回路によって、溶接電源の特性は、短絡期間、遅延期間及び小電流期間中は定電流特性となり、それ以外のアーク期間中は定電圧特性となる。
正送ピーク期間Tsp中の時刻t1において短絡が発生すると、同図(C)に示すように、溶接電圧Vwは数Vの短絡電圧値に急減するので、同図(D)に示すように、短絡判別信号SdがHighレベル(短絡期間)に変化する。これに応動して、時刻t1~t2の予め定めた正送減速期間Tsdに移行し、同図(A)に示すように、送給速度Fwは上記の正送ピーク値Wspから0まで減速する。例えば、正送減速期間Tsd=1msに設定される。
時刻t4において、溶接ワイヤの逆送及び溶接電流Iwの通電によるピンチ力によってくびれが進行してアークが発生すると、同図(C)に示すように、溶接電圧Vwは数十Vのアーク電圧値に急増するので、図(D)に示すように、短絡判別信号SdがLowレベル(アーク期間)に変化する。これに応動して、時刻t4~t5の予め定めた逆送減速期間Trdに移行し、同図(A)に示すように、送給速度Fwは上記の逆送ピーク値Wrpから0まで減速する。例えば、逆送減速期間Trd=1msに設定される。
実施の形態2の発明では、平均送給速度設定値に加えて電圧設定値に基づいて溶接電流を小電流値に切り換えるタイミングを変化させる。具体的には、実施の形態2の発明では、平均送給速度設定値に応じて基準電圧設定値を設定し、電圧設定値と基準電圧設定値との誤差増幅値に基づいて溶接電流を小電流値に切り換えるタイミングを変化させる。
1)予め定めた電流降下時間算出関数に平均送給速度設定信号Farを入力して基準電流降下時間を算出する。
2)電流降下時間Td=基準電流降下時間+Gr・Vbrを演算して、電流降下時間設定信号Tdrを出力する。この“Gr・Vbr”は、誤差増幅値を構成する。
ステップ1)実施の形態1と同様に、平均送給速度設定値に対応した基準電流降下時間を算出する。
ステップ2)平均送給速度設定値に対応した基準電圧設定値を算出する。
ステップ3)電圧設定値と上記の基準電圧設定値との誤差増幅値を算出する。増幅率は平均送給速度設定値の関数である。
ステップ4)上記の基準電流降下時間を上記の誤差増幅値で修正して、電流降下時間Tdを算出する。
ステップ1Far=3m/minとすると、基準電流降下時間=0.5×3+4=5.5msを算出する。
ステップ2)Far=3であるときの基準電圧設定値=18Vを算出する。
ステップ3)電圧設定値=19Vと上記の基準電圧設定値=18Vとの誤差増幅値=0.5×(19-18)=0.5を算出する。増幅率はFar=3であるので0.5となる。
ステップ4)上記の基準電流降下時間=5.5msを、上記の誤差増幅値=0.5で修正して、電流降下時間Td=5.5+0.5=6.0msを算出する。
ステップ2)Far=6であるときの基準電圧設定値=26Vを算出する。
ステップ3)電圧設定値=25Vと上記の基準電圧設定値=26Vとの誤差増幅値=1.0×(25-26)=-1.0を算出する。増幅率はFar=6であるので1.0となる。
ステップ4)上記の基準電流降下時間=7.0msを、上記の誤差増幅値=-1.0で修正して、電流降下時間Td=7.0-1.0=6.0msを算出する。
