Almost every die for automobiles must be corrected or remodeled for minor geometrical changes or for better hardness characteristics by an are welding process. Although many other kinds of arc welding processes have been automated with robots, the molten metal deposition process for die remodeling still depends entirely on experienced welders.In this study, a database for bead shapes with respect to welding parameters is constructed through experiments to automate molten metal deposition by the are welding process. Changes in the welding parameters for inclined base metal are studied to consider the effect of die geometries on the welding process.
