Characteristics of Welding and Arc Pressure in the Plasma–TIG Coupled Arc Welding Process

In this article, a novel hybrid welding process called plasma-TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas welding) coupled arc welding was proposed to improve the efficiency and quality of welding by utilizing the full advantage of plasma and TIG welding processes. The two arcs of plasma and TIG were pulled into each o...
