A welding process, welding system and welded article are disclosed. The welding process includes generating a first beam from a stationary fusion apparatus and generating a second beam from a rotatable fusion apparatus. The first beam and the second beam form a weld in an article. The welding system includes a stationary fusion apparatus and a rotatable fusion apparatus directed at an article to be welded, the stationary fusion apparatus and rotatable fusion apparatus being arranged and disposed to form a single weld in the article. The welded article includes a first element welded to a second element, the welded article having a decreased root reinforcement, in an inaccessible region, from that of a hybrid stationary fusion apparatus.
