Abstract

The consumable electrode type AC pulse arc welding apparatus is configured so that the pulse width setting circuit 16 includes the pulse width setting device 16a for hard wire, the pulse width setting device 16b for soft wire and the switch SW2 for switching the pulse width setting device. Further, the frequency setting device 20 includes the frequency setting device 20a for hard wire, the frequency setting device 20b for soft wire and the switch SW3 for switching the frequency setting device. By switching the switch SW1 when switching wire type, within the pulse width setting devices and the frequency setting devices, the selection between the hard wire side and the soft wire side can be simultaneously switched, thereby welding can be implemented with a suitable welding condition according to the wire type.
