Abstract: Welding processes have relevant importance in many areas of industry, especially in the manufacturing area. The choice of mass transfer mode, to weld metal plates, depends on workpiece structure and its sensibility to the heat input and necessity for material deposition rate. Then, aiming at the mass transfer modes in metal inert gas-metal active gas (MIG-MAG) processes utilising pure CO2 as shielding gas, the objective of this paper is to present a detailed mathematical modelling for globular and short-circuit transfer modes. The proposed models cover a large set of process dynamics, approximating the simulated dynamics very closely to the physical process, which give a high level of credibility for the models. Furthermore, simulations and experimental data are presented to corroborate the validation of both models.
