Visual Inspection
Condition
Possible cause
Corrective actions
Good welded joint
Low spatters around the weld without
outer flaws
The weld pool forms a collar around
the flange of about 1 - 1.5 mm
Correct parameters
none
Gap between flange and workpiece
Weld energy too low
Increase weld energy
Plunging speed too low
Correct plunging speed
Insufficient support of parent
material
Provide support
Many spatters around the weld
Weld energy too high
Reduce weld energy
Insufficient plunging speed
Increase plunging speed
One-sided weld pool
One-sided spatter collar
Effect of arc blow
Unsymmetric ground connection
Take care for symmetrical
ground connection
Weld pool came out on one side
Welding gun put at an angle
Put welding gun vertically to
