2, clamp cylinder and promote to clamp soldered product, pressure sensor and displacement transducer are started working simultaneously, send pressure signal and displacement signal to sensor controller, output signal to PLC respectively and analyze after the sensor controller analyzing and processing, welding condition meets outputing signal to the welding machine controller by PLC and finishing welding by welding machine controller control welding machine again of parameter setting range; If welding condition does not meet the parameter setting range, then machine sends out a warning and buzzer warning; 3, welding finishes that clamping cylinder in back resets, vertical cylinder resets; 4, the servomotor running drives positioning tool by screw mandrel and moves to next bond pad locations; 5, the operation of vertical cylinder promotes welder downwards and enters the welding position; 6, clamp cylinder and promote to clamp soldered product, pressure sensor and displacement transducer are started working simultaneously, send pressure signal and displacement signal to sensor controller, output signal to PLC respectively and analyze after the sensor controller analyzing and processing, welding condition meets outputing signal to the welding machine controller by PLC and finishing welding by welding machine controller control welding machine again of parameter setting range; If welding condition does not meet the parameter setting range, then machine sends out a warning and buzzer warning; 7, welding finishes that clamping cylinder in back resets, vertical cylinder resets.Resistance welding equipment carries out the substep welding to each solder joint respectively by manual substep operation signal.
