Le transfert par gravité (ou transfert globulaire) se produit à de faibles intensités de courant. Il se forme de grosses gouttes qui se détachent lorsque leur poids l'emporte sur les forces de tension superficielle. Ce mode de transfert présente peu d'intérêt pratique pour le soudage (rythme trop lent - 2 à 5 gouttes par seconde - pénétration médiocre - utilisable seulement en position à plat). 5, record 1, French, - transfert%20globulaire
