Zusammenfassung:Example welding system comprise: a welding torch comprising a non-consumable electrode configured to establish an arc between the non-consumable electrode and a workpiece; a wire feeder coupled to the welding torch and configured to direct a welding wire toward the workpiece at a location of the arc; and control circuitry configured to control at least one of a current to the arc, a wire feed speed of the welding wire, or preheat energy applied to the welding wire, to deliver the welding wire to the workpiece such that the welding wire applies a physical force to the workpiece prior to melting to push the welding torch along the workpiece.
