Abstract
The development of the consumable guide technique in electroslag welding-the wire guide itself melts progressively into the weld pool-makes possible the welding by this process of a wide variety of joint configurations. The use of static, as opposed to sliding, shoes enables joints to be made satisfactorily between plates of unequal thickness. Investigations are described and some applications discussed in this article.
