Abstract
A method includes monitoring a submerged arc welding (SAW) operation in real-time; determining, based on the monitoring and in real-time, a discrepancy between a desired weld parameter and an actual weld parameter of a weld resulting from the SAW operation; and in response to determining the discrepancy, controlling a power supply, which provides power for the SAW operation, to modify at least one of balance or offset of an alternating current (AC) welding power signal supplied for the SAW operation to compensate for the discrepancy.
