WELDING PARAMETER SELECTION AND NOTIFICATION SYSTEMS AND METHODS

摘要

A welding system includes an interface 38 having a first input element 48 configured to receive an input relating to a parameter of power delivered to a welding torch from a welding power supply and to alternatively receive an input relating to a thickness of a work piece, a second input element 44 configured to receive an input relating to a rate of advancement of an electrode delivered to the welding torch from a welding wire feeder and to alternatively receive an input relating to a diameter of the electrode, and a third input element configured to receive an input relating to a welding process type. The welding system also includes control circuitry configured to automatically adjust the parameter of the power and the rate of advancement of the electrode based on the input 40 relating to the welding process type selected with the third input element when the second input element receives the input relating to the diameter of the electrode.
