Abstract
The present invention improves the stability of welding conditions in a welding method that involves cyclically repeating forward feed and reverse feed of a welding wire. Provided is an arc welding control method involving cyclic repetition of forward feed and reverse feed of a welding wire at feed speed, generating short-circuit intervals and arc intervals, during which arc intervals, application of a first welding current is followed by application of a second welding current smaller than the first welding current, wherein the phase of the feed speed at the point in time of transition from an arc interval to a short-circuit interval is detected, and the value and/or the application duration of the first welding current is varied in accordance with the detected phase. In so doing, fluctuation of the phase of the feed speed due to outside disturbances during generation of short-circuiting can be minimized.
