Description

Three-dimensional vision tracking welding robot and control method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of welding, in particular to a three-dimensional vision tracking welding robot and a control method thereof.
Background
The welding is a comprehensive processing process combining light, electricity, heat and force, and heat generated in the welding process can cause a welding workpiece to generate larger thermal deformation so as to generate welding position deviation. Another approach to seam tracking using sensors has been found by comparison to be much more economical than using precision clamps.
The welding seam tracking system is divided into arc sensing, contact sensing, ultrasonic sensing and visual sensing because of the difference of the sensors, wherein the visual sensing is favored by people because the visual sensing can be far away from an arc Jiang Guangjiang hot zone and has large information collection quantity. The vision sensor has the function of converting optical images into electric signals, namely converting light intensity information (such as visible light, laser, X-ray, infrared ray, ultraviolet ray or electron bombardment and the like) which is emitted by a person on a photosensitive surface of the sensor and distributed according to space into electric signals which are serially output according to time sequence, namely converting the electric signals into video signals.
At present, a visual sensor widely applied in welding is a CCD camera which is divided into a linear array and an area array, wherein the linear array CCD captures one-dimensional images, and the area array CCD can capture two-dimensional plane images. The image shot by the vision sensor is converted into a gray matrix after spatial sampling and analog-digital conversion, and the gray matrix is sent into a computer memory to generate a digital image. When the CCD works, signal congestion occurs when the data volume is large, so that the requirement of high-speed reading of high-definition data by welding cannot be met. In addition, the one-dimensional and two-dimensional plane images are required to be manually judged and interpreted by professional staff, so that the welding production management cost is increased, and the large-area continuous automatic operation is not facilitated. In addition, the existing visual sensor is often subjected to pretreatment such as image transformation, enhancement or recovery and the like due to the limitation of various conditions and the interference of random factors in the process of taking, and the three-dimensional weld joint is converted into an operable one-dimensional and two-dimensional model, so that the phenomena of noise filtration, gray scale correction, distortion and the like are caused, the control variable parameters are required to be increased, and then the control variable parameters are transmitted to an executing mechanism, so that the interference is avoided, and the tracking control of the weld joint is realized. This results in problems of slow processing speed, easy distortion, etc. of the vision sensor in actual operation. In addition, in the conventional welding device, the welding path is single, and it is difficult to realize a complicated welding path track.
Therefore, a welding robot with high precision, high processing speed and convenient use is urgently needed, and the invention provides a three-dimensional vision tracking welding robot and a control method thereof.
