This paper deals with the use of an adaptive control system for compensating the variation in the gap height of a fillet welded lap joint. Gap bridging requires the input of additional filler material and is related to an increased energy input. Hence, the aim was a compensation of the effect of an increased heat input, in order to maintain the weld pool and excessive penetration, which can prevent consequently root reinforcement and burn-through. The findings achieved in this work show possibilities for a real-time controlled adjustments of the welding parameters in automated metal active gas (MAG) welding for compensating a higher heat input, in particular by means of the torch offset relative to the top sheet at the fillet weld on a lap joint.
