Abstract
Stopping electroslag strip cladding operations feeding multiple strips includes detecting, during a welding phase of an electroslag welding operation feeding a first strip and a second strip towards a molten slag pool formed on a work piece, initiation of a stop phase. Upon detection the feeding of the first strip towards the molten slag pool is stopped. Additionally, a feed direction of the feeding of the second strip is reversed to retract the second strip away from the molten slag pool.
