    摘要: A process for plasma spot welding of surface-treated workpieces using a plasma torch comprises supplying a plasma-generating gas to the plasma torch, connecting a first terminal (−) of a current source to an electrode of the plasma torch, connecting a second terminal (+) of the current source to a workpiece, building up at least one plasma arc from the electrode of the torch toward the workpiece by applying electric current (I(t)) from the current source to an anode-cathode path between the electrode and the workpiece. The electric current (I(t)) is kept in a preprocessing current range (IV) in a phase I and, in a subsequent phase II, at a main processing current value (IH) having an the average value of which is higher than the average preprocessing current range (IV). Phase I is maintained at least until the at least partial evaporation of surface treatment layers of the workpieces in a joining zone.

    摘要: Provided is a fluid-cooled melting tool that can be used in methods and systems for manufacturing objects by additive manufacturing techniques, especially titanium and titanium alloy objects. In some configurations, the melting tool is configured to be a plasma transferred arc (PTA) torch and the deposition rate can be increased by increasing the flow rate of electric charge through the electrode made possible by the dual circuit cooling design of the torch. The fluid-cooled melting tools provided herein exhibit stable and repeatable PTA characteristics over wide range of current including current of 400 amps or more, whether pulsed or non-pulsed, and plasma gas flow inputs.
