Teaching machine (teach pendant) 9TP as operating unit is so-called movable operating dish, in order to make the action of manipulator 9M, stitch pulse welding carries out and sets necessary condition etc.
Robot controller 9RC, for the control making manipulator 9M perform welding action, possesses master control part, operation control part and servo-driver (servo driver) (all not shown) etc. therein.Further, operator, based on the operation procedure by teaching machine 9TP teaching, from servo-driver output action control signal to each servomotor of manipulator 9M, and makes multiple axles of manipulator 9M rotate respectively.The output of encoder (encoder) (not shown) that possess according to the servomotor from manipulator 9M due to robot controller 9RC identifies current location, therefore can control the front position of arc torch 9T.Then, in weld part, while repeating the welding of following explanation, movement, cooling, carry out stitch pulse welding.
Figure 11 is the figure for illustration of state when carrying out stitch pulse welding.Welding wire 97 stretches out from the front end of arc torch 9T.All the time spray from arc torch 9T with constant flow till at the end of protective gas (shield gas) G plays welding when welding starts.Below, be described about each state during stitch pulse welding.
Situation when representing that electric arc produces with figure (a).Based on set welding current and weldingvoltage, between the front end of welding wire 97 and mother metal 9W, produce electric arc a, welding wire 97 melting, and form fusion pool Y on mother metal 9W.From electric arc a produces, through shown teach weld interval after, stop electric arc a.
The situation after electric arc stopping is represented with figure (b).After electric arc stops, until through set cool time, the state after welding is all made to maintain.That is, under the state that manipulator 9M and arc torch 9T stops in the same manner as the state in time welding, only spray protective gas G from arc torch 9T, therefore fusion pool Y is cooled by protective gas G in fact and solidifies.
Representing with figure (c) makes arc torch 9T move to the situation of next welding position.After cool time, make arc torch 9T on welding direct of travel, move to position and the electric arc restart point of moving interval (pitch) Mp preset of being separated by.Translational speed is now set translational speed.Moving interval Mp, shown in figure (c), is the outer circumferential side in order to the weld mark Y ' after fusion pool Y solidifies is located welding wire 97 and distance after adjusting.
The situation regenerating electric arc a on electric arc restart point is represented with figure (d).The leading section of weld mark Y ' forms fusion pool Y again and welds.Like this, in stitch pulse welding system 91, make generation electric arc to carry out the state of welding and carry out cooling, the state of movement alternately repeats.Then, welding bead (weld bead) is formed according to squama (ゥ ロ コ) the overlapped mode made as weld mark.
Figure 12 is the figure for illustration of the welding bead formed after welding procedure.As shown in the figure, initial electric arc starting point P1 forms weld mark Sc, towards welding direct of travel Dr, the starting point P2 of electric arc again of moving interval Mp of being separated by also forms same weld mark Sc.And then, after electric arc starting point P3 again, also form increasing weld mark Sc successively.Like this, overlapped the formed result of squama as weld mark Sc is the welding bead B forming squamous.
In the above-mentioned methods, as shown in Figure 11 (b), Figure 11 (c) etc., repeatedly carry out electric arc a is stopped and in the operation making electric arc a regenerate afterwards.Regenerate electric arc a and need the time.Therefore, in the above-mentioned methods, elongated problem weld interval is created.In addition, when making electric arc a regenerate, there is the problem that generation is splashed (sputter), the deteriorated appearance of welding bead B is so at every turn.For this reason, as shown in figure 13, motion is a kind of makes electric arc a not stop and not needing the welding (for example, referring to patent document 2) regenerated of electric arc a.
As Figure 13 (b), Figure 13 (c) clearly shown in, different from the situation shown in Figure 11 (b), Figure 11 (c), do not make electric arc a stop when cooling fusion pool Y yet, and keep the state of generation electric arc a.Thus, the shortening of weld interval is realized.In addition, owing to there is no need to make electric arc a regenerate, therefore the generation of splashing can be suppressed.In this case, such as, utilizing pulse current when welding, utilizing when carrying out the cooling of fusion pool Y the method for DC current to be known.
But, as shown in Figure 13 (b), Figure 13 (c), when cooling fusion pool Y, need to prevent the droplet transfer from making welding current minimum.If welding current diminishes, then when cooling fusion pool, electric arc interrupts frequently occurring.If electric arc interrupts frequent generation, then can bring the deterioration of the outward appearance of welding bead B.Like this, the method shown in Figure 13 is inadequate for the deterioration of the outward appearance preventing welding bead B.
In addition, further, when switching from pulse current to DC current, situation about diminishing between welding wire 97 and mother metal 9W, is separated with.In this case, the length of electric arc a can change, and the pressure of electric arc a can change.Now, fusion pool Y is had to vibrate, the situation of the deteriorated appearance of welding bead B.

Fig. 5 (a) represents the variable condition of robot translational speed VR, and (b) represents the variable condition of welding current Iw.Robot translational speed VR is the translational speed of the welding torch 14 of the welding direct of travel (corresponding with the welding direct of travel Dr of the prior art shown in Fig. 9) of regulation in the face of mother metal w among direction.
First, by the welding commencing signal St (with reference to Fig. 2) of input from outside, carry out cambic welding and start to process (S1).Start in process (S1) in welding, output commencing signal On is outputted to output control circuit 31 and feeding control circuit 34 by control circuit 21.Output control circuit 31 applies weldingvoltage Vw between welding wire 15 and mother metal W.Like this, electric arc a is lighted.

In period droplet transfer T1, in the description of prior, the process of the formation fusion pool Y as shown in Figure 11 (a), Figure 13 (a) is carried out.In period droplet transfer T1, as shown in Fig. 5 (a), robot translational speed VR is set as 0.Thus, welding torch 14 is stop relative to mother metal W.Shown in figure (b), as welding current Iw, the mean value flowing through absolute value is the welding current Iw1 of the pulse of the interchange of current value iw1.In period droplet transfer T1, implement constant voltage and control.In constant voltage controls, if the welding condition of the extension elongation, polarity of electrode etc. of the material of welding wire 15, diameter, welding wire 15 is determined, then welding current Iw is determined by the feed speed Vf of welding wire 15.That is, welding current Iw1 is set by feed speed setting signal Ws.The feed speed Vf of welding wire 15 is such as 650 ~ 1000cm/min.In addition, period droplet transfer T1 is such as 0.4 ~ 0.5sec.
Fig. 6 is the figure of the time variations representing welding current Iw1 in detail.In Figure 5, in order to the convenience on understanding, reduced representation has been carried out to welding electric current I w1, but welding current Iw1 is the alternating pulsing current shown in Fig. 6.Current value iw1 in current value iw1 and Fig. 5 in Fig. 6 is consistent.The scale (scale) of the time in Fig. 6 is more much smaller than the scale of the time in Fig. 5.In figure 6, representing the longitudinal axis of welding current Iw, is just at welding wire 15 for making the electric current flow through during anode.
Be appreciated that welding current Iw1 on average gets one-time electrode positive polarity electric current I ep and Electrode Negative electric current I en in cycle T e from this figure.Cycle T e is such as about 20msec.Electric current positive polarity electric current I ep be welding wire 15 be anode, the electric current that flows through under being negative electrode state of mother metal W.Electrode straight polarity electric current I ep comprises positive polarity peak point current Ipp and positive polarity background current Ipb.Positive polarity peak point current Ipp during electrode straight polarity period Tpp in flow through.Electrode straight polarity period Tpp is such as 2msec.The absolute value Iepp of positive polarity peak point current Ipp is such as 300 ~ 350A.On the other hand, positive polarity background current Ipb during electrode straight polarity period Tpb in flow through.Electrode straight polarity period Tpb is such as 14msec.The absolute value Iepb of positive polarity background current Ipb is such as 30 ~ 80A.
Electrode Negative electric current I en be welding wire 15 be negative electrode, mother metal W be anode state under the electric current that flows through.Electrode Negative electric current I en during Electrode Negative period Ten in flow through.Electrode Negative period Ten is such as 3.0 ~ 4.0msec.The absolute value Ienp of Electrode Negative electric current I en is such as 50 ~ 100A.
Positive polarity peak point current Ipp, positive polarity background current Ipb, Electrode Negative electric current I en, electrode straight polarity period Tpp and Electrode Negative period Ten are set as setting.FEEDBACK CONTROL is carried out to electrode straight polarity period Tpb, the weldingvoltage setting value equaling to preset to make the mean value of weldingvoltage Vw.Be appropriate value by this control by the cut to lengthen of electric arc a.It is consistent with current value iw1 that absolute value for positive polarity peak point current Ipp, positive polarity background current Ipb and Electrode Negative electric current I en gets the value after time average.Current value iw1 is such as 90A.
Further, in period droplet transfer T1, voltage detection signal Vd sends (S3) to computing circuit 332 by the voltage split circuit 331 receiving the voltage detection signal Vd corresponding with weldingvoltage Vw.After the end of period droplet transfer T1, computing circuit 332 calculates the mean value of the weldingvoltage Vw in period droplet transfer T1, and this mean value is outputted to error amplifying circuit 334 (S4) as target voltage values Vds.In addition, in the present embodiment, FEEDBACK CONTROL is carried out to electrode straight polarity period Tpb, the weldingvoltage setting value equaling to preset to make the mean value of weldingvoltage Vw, thus can take the gimmick of the weldingvoltage setting value output preset as target voltage values Vds.
The electric arc shown in Fig. 4 duration in T2, in the description of prior, as shown in Figure 13 (b), (c), electric arc a is made to continue the process carrying out cooling fusion pool Y.The duration of electric arc, T2 is such as 0.2 ~ 0.3sec.
Electric arc duration during the beginning of T2 (S5), as shown in Fig. 5 (a), robot translational speed is set as V2.Like this, welding torch 14 starts mobile along the welding direct of travel of regulation.V2 is such as 100cm/min.After robot translational speed is set as V2, carry out rapidly the setting (S6) of DC current values is1.
The setting (S6) of DC current values is1 is selected to be that value corresponding to the situation of V2 is carried out with robot translational speed VR by referring to the database be stored in the memory of control circuit 21 automatically.Electric arc duration in T2, as shown in Fig. 5 (b), control welding current Iw, flow through as welding current Iw2 to make this DC current values is1.DC current values is1 is such as about 5 ~ 20A.DC current values is1 is small enough to the value being difficult to carry out the droplet transfer.In addition, welding current Iw2 welding wire 15 be anode, mother metal W be negative electrode state under flow through, be so-called electrode straight polarity electric current.In addition, welding wire 15 carrys out feeding (diagram slightly) towards mother metal W with the feed speed Vf of the value less than the value in period droplet transfer T1.This feed speed Vf is such as 70cm/min.Feed speed Vf is the value be embedded into accordingly, in advance with DC current values is1 in operation procedure, is sent from control circuit 21 by feed speed setting signal Ws via feed speed initialization circuit 33 to feeding control circuit 34.
Fig. 7 represents when feed speed initialization circuit 33 does not play a role, and can get the figure of the behavior of weldingvoltage Vw electric arc duration in T2.Constant current control is carried out in T2 electric arc duration.That is, based on the current detection signal Id from current detection circuit 32, in output control circuit 31, control weldingvoltage Vw, thus make welding current Iw constant.
That distance D between welding wire 15 and mother metal W has variation with one of the reason that object makes weldingvoltage Vw increase and decrease that is embodied as of constant current.Distance D owing to not being the physical quantity directly carrying out measuring and controlling, therefore can pass through the condition variation of welding.Such as, can enumerate the flatness of mother metal W, welding robot 1 teaching (teaching) precision, the feeding of welding wire 15 is played to the frictional force etc. of inhibition.When distance D diminishes, in order to keep constant current, implement the control that weldingvoltage Vw is diminished.On the other hand, when distance D becomes large, in order to keep constant current, implement the control making weldingvoltage Vw become large.
In the present embodiment, feed speed initialization circuit 33 after T2, the standby stipulated time (S7), during this period, receives the voltage detection signal Vd corresponding with weldingvoltage Vw starting electric arc duration.The standby time takes the circumstances into consideration setting from the scope of such as 10 milliseconds ~ several 10 milliseconds.The voltage detection signal Vd received during this period sends to computing circuit 333 by voltage split circuit 331.Computing circuit 333, according to the voltage detection signal Vd received, calculates the average voltage level Vfa in stand-by time, and sends (S8) to error amplifying circuit 334.
It is how many that error amplifying circuit 334 detects the target voltage values Vds received before average voltage level Vfa departs from actually, and amplify this error, and error amplification signal Ev is sent to corrected signal output circuit 335 (S9).The amplification voltage difference delta V transmitted by error amplification signal Ev is the value obtained be multiplied by positive constant on (Vfa-Vds) after.The corrected signal Ds corresponding with the amplification voltage difference delta V transmitted by error amplification signal Ev is sent to feeding control circuit 34 (S10) by corrected signal output circuit 335.
In the present embodiment, corrected signal output circuit 335 decides feed speed difference delta Ws according to the amplification voltage difference delta V transmitted by error amplification signal Ev.All charts are as shown in Figure 8 used in this decision.As shown in Figure 8, at amplification voltage difference delta V=0, when namely average voltage level Vfa equals target voltage values Vds, feed speed difference delta Ws is set as 0.In addition, when the absolute value of amplification voltage difference delta V is voltage difference threshold value below Δ Vth, feed speed difference delta Ws is set as 0.When the absolute value amplifying voltage difference delta V is larger than voltage difference threshold value Δ Vth, set feed speed difference delta Ws according to illustrated chart.In the present embodiment, amplify voltage difference delta V and feed speed difference delta Ws and be configured to stair-stepping relation.Corrected signal output circuit 335 carries out the process be added to by feed speed difference delta Ws on feed speed setting signal Ws, and sends to feeding control circuit 34 as corrected signal Ds.
If feeding control circuit 34 receives corrected signal Ds, then revise the feed speed Vf (S11) of welding wire 15 based on this.In addition, in order to more critically carry out the correction of the feed speed Vf of welding wire 15, AC servomotor can be set near the front end of welding torch 14 to carry out the adjustment of the feed speed Vf of welding wire 15.
Thereafter, be whether the confirmation (S12) of the time that the duration of making electric arc, T2 terminates.When making electric arc duration T2 terminate time (S12=is), carry out weld terminate confirmation (S13).When be not the duration of making electric arc T2 terminate time (S12=is no), get back to and again carry out standby operation (S7) with the stipulated time, and repeat above-mentioned operation.
Next, the effect about present embodiment is described.
According to the present embodiment, when due to distance D change between above-mentioned reason welding wire 15 and mother metal w, along with this variation, amplifying voltage difference delta V can change.Feed speed initialization circuit 33, based on this amplification voltage difference delta V, carries out the control making feed speed Vf speed change.The speed change of this feed speed Vf is carried out according to the mode of average voltage level Vfa convergence target voltage values Vds.Consequently, the length of electric arc a keeps length when average voltage level Vfa gets target voltage values Vds, that wish.Therefore, it is possible to avoid the length because of electric arc a long and cause electric arc to interrupt producing, or cause the state of affairs of short circuit because the length of electric arc a is too short.This is suitable for arc welding is stably continued, and is suitable for preventing the outward appearance of welding bead irregular.
In the present embodiment, target voltage values Vds calculates as the mean value of the weldingvoltage Vw in the period droplet transfer T1 carried out before just.Therefore, when shifting from period droplet transfer T1 to T2 duration of electric arc, weldingvoltage Vw is difficult to change.
Further, according to the present embodiment, the DC current values is1 of the welding current Iw duration of electric arc in T2 automatically selects the value corresponding with robot translational speed VR by referring to the database be stored in the memory of control circuit 21 and carries out.Thus, user there is no need the setting carrying out DC current values is1, except user operation burden alleviate except, also can step-down to the dependency degree of the technology of the user of welding result.Therefore, arc-welding method of the present invention can prevent from, because the technical deficiency of user or the result of welding of lacking experience and causing are deteriorated, are suitable for arc welding is stably continued, and are suitable for preventing the outward appearance of welding bead irregular.
When amplification voltage difference delta V is voltage difference threshold value below Δ Vth, by feed speed difference delta Ws is set as 0, thus can prevent from causing feed speed Vf acceleration and deceleration continually because of the generation of small amplification voltage difference delta V.But not the acceleration and deceleration frequently of original idea, even if this plus-minus rate is very little, wrongful hunting (hunting) etc. also may be brought out.According to the present embodiment, the confusion of such control can be suppressed.About voltage difference delta V and feed speed difference delta Ws is set to stepped, be the form of amplifying the such as form of the relation between voltage difference delta V and feed speed difference delta Ws to be carried out data input and maintenance, thus degree easy to use is high.
Next, about the 2nd embodiment of arc-welding method of the present invention, be described with reference to Fig. 9.The arc-welding method of present embodiment, utilizes welding system A in the same manner as above-mentioned arc-welding method, and the duration of by alternately repeating period droplet transfer T1 and electric arc, T2 carries out.In fig .9, the waveform of the welding current Iw of the tail end of the period droplet transfer T1 of the arc-welding method of present embodiment is illustrated.Further, in the arc-welding method of present embodiment, decide target voltage values Vds by method shown below.In addition, other steps are identical with above-mentioned arc-welding method.
As shown in Figure 9, welding current Iw1 recurring unit cycle T e, this unit period Te by the polarity of welding wire 15 become+EP period Tep and the polarity of welding wire 15 become-EN period Ten form.In EP period Tep, welding current Iw1 becomes electrode straight polarity electric current I ep.In EN period Ten, welding current Iw1 becomes Electrode Negative electric current I en.Electrode Negative electric current I en flows through with constant value iwln.On the other hand, electrode straight polarity electric current I ep increases and decreases according to the mode of getting peak value iwlp.
EP period Tep is made up of following: Tp between the peak period that electrode straight polarity electric current I ep gets peak value iwlp, as the increase period Tu of the first-half period more forward than Tp between the peak period, as than the minimizing period Td between Tp between peak period latter half rearward and constant period Tb.Increase period Tu beginning from being switched to electrode straight polarity electric current I ep by Electrode Negative electric current I en.During increasing period Tu, welding current Iw1 increases.When the current value of welding current Iw1 reaches peak value iw1p, increase period Tu terminates, and between the peak period, Tp starts.Between the peak period during Tp, the value of welding current Iw1 remains peak value iw1p.After between the peak period, Tp terminates, start to reduce period Td.During reducing period Td, welding current Iw1 reduces.When the current value of welding current Iw1 reduces to the value iw1d of regulation, minimizing period Td terminates, and constant period Tb starts.During constant period Tb, the current value of welding current Iw1 flows through with constant value iw1d.After the end of this constant period Tb, carry out the switching from electrode straight polarity electric current I ep to Electrode Negative electric current I en.
Peak value iw1p, value iw1n, iw1d, between the peak period, Tp and EN period Ten is set as setting.FEEDBACK CONTROL is carried out to constant period Tb, the weldingvoltage setting value equaling to preset to make the mean value of weldingvoltage Vw.Be appropriate value by this control by the cut to lengthen of electric arc a.
In EN period Ten, because welding wire 15 is positioned at cathode side, therefore in the front end of welding wire 15, molten drop has the trend of easily growing up.Otherwise in EP period Tep, owing to getting peak value iw1p, the electromagnetic contractile force (electromagnetic pinch force) large for welding wire 15 works, therefore molten drop has the trend easily fallen.After molten drop falls, enter EN period Ten, molten drop is grown up again.Like this, during a unit period Te, a molten drop is transitioned into mother metal W from welding wire 15.
In the present embodiment, in during constant period Tb, carry out the transfer from period droplet transfer T1 to T2 duration of electric arc.Further, target voltage values Vds is set as the weldingvoltage setting value preset used by FEEDBACK CONTROL of carrying out in constant period Tb.According to this method, there is no need to calculate target voltage values Vds in each period droplet transfer T1, thus the complicated of feed speed initialization circuit 33 can be prevented.
Arc-welding method according to the present embodiment, the arc length duration of can making the arc length in constant period Tb and electric arc after this constant period in T2 is almost identical.Therefore, when shifting from period droplet transfer T1 to T2 duration of electric arc, fusion pool is difficult to vibration, thus the outward appearance of welding bead is difficult to become irregular.
Further, when shifting to T2 duration of electric arc from period droplet transfer T1, being difficult to residual larger molten drop in the front end of welding wire 15, thus can preventing from forming large molten drop wrongly in T2 electric arc duration.
Scope of the present invention is not limited to above-mentioned embodiment.Concrete formation of the present invention freely can carry out various design variations.In the above-described embodiment, amplification voltage difference delta V and feed speed difference delta Ws has been set to stepped relation, but the relation of amplifying between voltage difference delta V and feed speed difference delta Ws also can be such as linear relation.Setting voltage difference limen value Δ Vth realizes stable feed speed to control in a preferred way, but also can not use the control of voltage difference threshold value Δ Vth.
Foregoing illustrates the example that welding current Iw1 is the pulse current exchanged, but the present invention is not limited to this, and welding current Iw1 can be the constant current etc. of direct current.Undoubtedly, be suitable for too for welding current Iw2.
