The wire feeding device that feeds welding wire W from the wire source to the welding torch is disposed between the wire source and the welding torch and is configured to temporarily accommodate the welding wire W fed from the wire source and to feed the accommodated welding wire W to the welding torch. In the case where feeding of welding wire W is abnormally stopped, if the acceptance unit accepts instructions for increasing or decreasing, the wire feeding device controls the speed of feeding welding wire W fed by the first feeding part or the second feeding part so that a difference is generated in the feeding speed of the first feeding part and the second feeding part and the accommodated amount of welding wire W is in a range from the lower limit of normal to an upper limit of normal.

A power supply that performs output PWM control and PSM control. The PWM control is performed when the required output is such that a control signal is set with a larger ON pulse width than a predetermined narrow pulse width allowing for sufficient activation of switching elements in an inverter circuit and an auxiliary switching circuit. The PSM control is performed when the required output is such that the control signal for each switching element is set with a smaller ON pulse width than the predetermined narrow pulse width. The PSM control adjusts the phase of a control pulse signal so that the ON pulse is fixed to the predetermined narrow pulse width.

A power supply apparatus includes an air path extending longitudinally, a fan that blows air into the air path in a direction intersecting a longitudinal direction of the air path, and a plurality of electronic components arranged in the longitudinal direction. Each of the electronic components is cooled by air passing through the air path. With this configuration, it is possible to efficiently cool the electronic components without compromising the flexibility of arrangement of the various electronic components. Also, a dust removal operation can be readily performed without the possibility of damaging the fan.
