Abstract

The article presents the course and the results of research on welding conditions and tendency of hot cracking occurrence connected with MIG (CMT or Pulse) welding method choice. EN AW 6082 alloy is considered hard-to-weld by using conventional arc welding processes (MIGPulse) due to the heat sensitivity and the tendency to hot cracking in the thin walled joints (weld, HAZ). MIG low energy method (CMT) was developed inter alia to solve this problem.
