Use of a Secondary Current Sensor in Plasma during Electron-Beam Welding with Focus Scanning for Process Control

We consider questions of building a closed-loop focus control system for electron-beam welding. As a feedback signal, we use the secondary current in the plasma that forms above the welding zone. This article presents a model of a secondary current sensor in plasma during electron-beam welding with...
