The authors open with a broad oi- line of some of the factors involved in operat ing ' contact welding machines at low frequencies. The fre- quency of the welding current, it is stated, should be selected with regard to: a) the greatest possible reduction in power consumed by the machine; b) the minimum possible increase in the weight of the welding transformer; c) the most favorable effect on the tech- nology of contact welding. Frequency characteristics were calculated for 4 universal machines: the MTP-300 Card 1A for spot welding, the MShP-150 for seam welding, the SOV/125-59-8-3/18 Selectin the Frequency of the Current for Low-Frequency Contact (Welding~ Machines MRP-600 for relief welding, and the RSKM-320 for junc- tion welding; characteristics were measured with the machines short-circuited. A sinusoidal voltage, carry- ing from 50 - 5 cps, was fed to the primary of the welding transformer. Analysis of the frequency char- acteristics obtained (Fig 1) shows that the character- istics of impeaence changes relative to frequency for the various machines are roughly the same. These re- sults are briefly discussed further. These character- istics Dermit calculation of the power of the machine as a function of frequency. This is briefly discussed in relation to various types of contact welding and with regard to the resistance of the welded object inserted in the secondary circuit of the machine. Some results are presented and graphed (Figs 2,3). The relationship between power and the weight of the welding transformer is mathematically derived. The authors conclude that, depending on the type of weld- Card 2/4 ing, the frequency shoii1d lie in the range of 5 - 10 SOV/125-59-8-3/18 Selecting the Frequency of the Current for Low-Frequency Contact (Welding) Machines cps; for spot welding of light alloys and. relief welding, 5 cps is considered best, and for point weld- ing of steel and junction welding, 10 cps is best. Lowering the welding current frequency also moans that consumed power can be decreased from 2-5 times, depending, on the type of welding. A significant in- crease in the power factor of the machine also results, Further decreasing the frequency does not give a sub- stantial power gain and leads to an unjustifiable in- crease in the weight of the transformer. In conclu- sion the authors describe the waveform put out by the simplest frequen,_zy and phase converters used in weld-, ing which is close to a square wave (Fig 5), and its effect in operation of the welding machine; it is calculated that with such a waveform power is 11% greater than with a sinusoidal wave.

Two basic types of converters were constructed. One with an interme- diate chain of rectified current. It had a cascade combination between rectifier and inverter., which con- verts the rectified current into alternating current of the needed frequency.(Fig. 1). A shortcoming of this scheme is the interval between positive and negative current impulses at low frequencies. This lowers the effective value of the welding current. The other one is a converter with direct converting of frequency Card 1/2 and phase number. This can easily be made to operate in turn in opposite directions of the rectifier. SOV/125-59-5-4/16 Three-Phase Converter for Frequency, and Number of Phase for Feeding of Point Welding Machines Thus the positive half-periods of low frequency cur- rent can be formed by one rectifier, the negative half- periods by the other one (Fig, 2). The author gives a short analysis of this scheme, which shows, that it is advisable to use converters with direct converting of frequency and phase number for the feeding of point- welding machines. Two schemes of switching with auto- matic control for frequency converters are described (Ref. 6). The methods are worked out by the Institute Card 2/2 of Electric Welding imeniYe.O. Paton.

TITLE: The Power Factor of Resistance Welding Machineliwith Ignitron Control PERIODICAL; Avtomaticheskaya evarka, 1960, Nr 3, PP 31-36 ABSTRACT: In determining cos 1P of single-pb%se resistance welding machines with controlled ignitron interr4pters, or of three-phase machines with frequency converters, the distortion of the current curve must be taken into account, but no data on the cos V of such machines exist in literature. The purpose of this work i9 to fill in this gap to a certain degree. An experimental method based on the use of equivalent circuits is suggested in order to avoid cumbrous calculations. By employing it, the author succeeded in determining the existing dependence of the power factor on the ignition angle of the ignitrons in machines with ignitron control. He also found that the welding current adjustment by changing the ignition angle markedly decreases the power factor,.
