Globular transfer is defined as

Globular transfer is defined as

• A. Globular transfer is the process of transferring molten metal in small droplets at high voltage.
• B. Globular transfer is the transfer of molten metal in large droplets across an arc to the workpiece.
• C. Globular transfer requires a fine spray.
• D. Globular transfer occurs only in vertical welding.

Answer: (B)

Globular transfer describes a metal transfer mode in GMAW where relatively large, irregular droplets are formed at the wire tip and carried across the arc to the weld pool. Because the droplets are big, they tend to detach and travel across the arc rather than forming a continuous fine spray, which often results in more spatter and a less stable weld compared with spray transfer. This transfer mode typically occurs at moderate current with a longer arc length, hence the large droplets. It is not defined by a fine spray of tiny droplets, and it can occur in various welding positions, not just vertical.
