Abstract: Example wire spool hub assemblies include: a spindle configured to hold a wire spool; a spool rotation resistor positioned on the spindle to resist rotation of the wire spool on the spindle; and a resistance adjuster configured to selectively apply two or more rotation resistances via the spool rotation resistor based on two or more discrete positions of the resistance adjuster.

Abstract: A welding system and method provide for generating a controlled waveform for welding power output, the waveform comprising a plurality of successive peak phases followed by a short circuit between a welding wire electrode and an advancing weld puddle. Each then present peak phase is regulated based upon at least the immediately preceding short circuit to control the short circuit that will occur following the then present peak phase. Some embodiments permit regulating at least one waveform phase based upon at least the immediately preceding short circuit to control the next short circuit that will occur, and regulating at least one short response phase based upon at least the immediately preceding short circuit to control the next short circuit that will occur.

Abstract: An example welding-type power supply, includes: power conversion circuitry configured to convert input power to welding-type power; and control circuitry configured to: control the power conversion circuitry to output the welding-type power based on a voltage-controlled control loop; and in response to detecting an output voltage less than a threshold voltage: during a first state, control the voltage-controlled control loop based on a first value of a control parameter of the voltage-controlled control loop to increase a response rate of the voltage-controlled control loop; and during a second state following the first state, control the voltage-controlled control loop based on a second value of the control parameter, wherein the second value of the control parameter causes a reduction in energy output by the power conversion circuitry relative to the first state.

Abstract: An example welding-type power supply includes: power conversion circuitry configured to convert input power to welding-type power; a user interface configured to receive two or more inputs associated with corresponding qualitative characteristics of a welding arc created by the welding-type power, wherein the two or more inputs are defined within corresponding ranges of the respective qualitative characteristics; and control circuitry configured to: in response to a change in a first one of the two or more inputs, determine a corresponding change in a second one of the two or more inputs based on a relationship between the first and second ones of the two or more inputs; determine two or more welding-type parameters based on the two or more inputs; and control the power conversion circuitry based on the determined welding-type parameters.
