contents A control strategy for the electrical current in GMAW processes is proposed. The control is in closed-loop, designed by formal methods, based on a mathematical model of the electrical behavior of the GMAW process, and implemented in C+ language in a microcontroller. The model consists of a switched equivalent electrical circuit whose parameters are obtained in a data-driven manner. The strategy is tested in numerous experiments with both manual and robot welding, showing improvements in the overall welding process.
