Abstract

The invention describes a method of continuously controlling and tracking a position of a welding torch ( 10 ) and welding head relative to a weld seam to be produced on a workpiece ( 16 ), whereby the welding torch ( 10 ), spaced at a distance apart from a workpiece ( 16 ) and the weld seam, effects a pendulum motion which is superimposed on its linear welding motion, during which state variables, in particular an ohmic resistance or a current and/or a voltage, are detected as they change in time. The lateral deviation of the welding torch ( 10 ) from the weld seam, in particular from the welding line centre, and/or the height of the welding torch ( 10 ) above the workpiece ( 16 ) and the welding head are derived from the detected actual values and signals in order to control and track the position of the welding torch ( 10 ). Depending on periodically occurring process phases of a welding process, the measurement value detection routine for at least one measurement signal, in particular to detect the state variable, is run at fixed instants and/or states of the periodically recurring process phases of the welding process.
