2. Description of the Related Art In the field of steel plate welding such as construction machinery manufacturers and bridge manufacturers, there is a strong demand for welding technology with higher efficiency than before in order to further reduce costs. The tandem arc welding method is a welding technique to meet such a demand, and arranges a leading electrode and a trailing electrode, which use a welding wire as a consumable electrode, with a predetermined electrode distance in the welding line direction of a work. Then, welding is performed by generating a gas shield arc from each electrode. This tandem arc welding method has a significantly large amount of wire melting as compared with arc welding using a single electrode, and enables highly efficient welding. In the tandem arc welding method, the distance between the leading electrode and the trailing electrode is made close to each other and two arcs generated respectively form one molten pool to perform welding, and the distance between the electrodes is sufficiently separated. There is a method of independently forming a molten pool by each arc and welding. The former tandem arc welding method is adopted for a work composed of a relatively short welding line, and the tandem arc welding method targeted by the present invention is the former one.

However, in a construction machine maker or the like for welding thick steel plates, a two-electrode integrated torch or two single-electrode torches are mounted on a teaching regenerative welding robot to perform tandem arc welding. In such a case, as shown in FIG. 4 as an example, for a workpiece having interference members (side plates) S1 and S2 at the start end and the end of the welding line WL, the interference member S1 interferes with the starting end of the welding line. Therefore, the leading electrode cannot be located at the welding line starting point Ps, so that tandem arc welding cannot be performed at the portion corresponding to the distance between the electrodes from the welding line starting point Ps, and the interference member S2 becomes an obstacle at the welding line terminal portion. The trailing electrode to the welding line end point Pe
Therefore, tandem arc welding cannot be performed in the portion corresponding to the distance between the electrodes from the welding line end point Pe. For this reason, since it is necessary to rework the portion where this tandem arc welding cannot be performed, the application of tandem arc welding may be postponed to a work in which the interference members S1 and S2 exist at the start and end of the welding line WL. There were many.

Here, the start point treatment welding start point P1 and the tandem welding start point P2 on the welding line are the welding line start point Ps.
It may be set at a position in the range 20 to 60 mm away from the welding line end point Pe side. Note that the tandem welding start point P2 at which an arc is also generated in the preceding electrode is set apart from the welding line start point Ps by a length of (interelectrode distance) + (predetermined distance). The inter-electrode distance between the leading electrode and the trailing electrode is, for example, 15 mm. The P1 on the welding line
The point and the point P2 may be set at different positions, but they are at the same position (coordinate position) from the point that the welding bead height (welding height) is the same at the start end treatment welded portion and the tandem welded portion. It is preferable to set to. The set position of the starting end processing welding start point P1 from the welding line starting point Ps and the setting position of the tandem welding start point P2 from the welding line starting point Ps are 2
If it is less than 0 mm, the shape of the weld bead at the start end treatment welded portion tends to be defective. On the other hand, when it exceeds 60 mm, the welded portion at the start end is too long, which causes a decrease in welding efficiency. The setting range is more preferably 25 to 35 mm.

In this start end treatment welding, first,
(A) Leading edge treatment A trailing electrode is positioned at the welding starting point P1 and an arc is generated only at the trailing electrode to start the welding line starting point P.
Start torch running toward s. (B) Next, the torch angle of the trailing electrode is changed so that the advancing angle is in the range of 2 to 45 ° toward the welding line starting point Ps direction. By setting the torch angle to the advancing angle within the above range, the arc of the trailing electrode can be directly applied to the welding line starting point Ps located at the corner with the interference member, and the welding line starting point P located at the corner.
In s, good penetration and familiarization of weld beads can be obtained. If the torch angle is less than 2 ° advancing, the above effect cannot be sufficiently obtained. On the other hand, if the torch angle exceeds 45 ° advancing, the torch tilts too much, causing a problem such that the lower end of the torch nozzle contacts the work. . More preferably, the advancing angle is in the range of 5 to 30 °. (C) When the trailing electrode reaches the welding line starting point Ps, the torch travel is temporarily stopped. In this case, the torch traveling temporary stop time at the welding line starting point Ps is preferably in the range of 0.3 to 3.0 seconds. If the torch travel suspension time is less than 0.3 seconds, the arc hitting at the welding line start point Ps is insufficient and the weld bead is not well fitted. On the other hand, if it exceeds 3.0 seconds, the welding amount becomes excessive and the bead becomes too large. The shape becomes defective. This torch travel suspension time is more preferably in the range of 0.5 to 2.0 seconds. In addition, when performing the leading edge treatment welding while weaving the trailing electrode, the torch traveling may be temporarily stopped at the welding line starting point Ps while continuing the weaving operation of the trailing electrode. (D) Next, after the traveling is temporarily stopped, the torch traveling direction is reversed, the torch angle of the trailing electrode is returned to the torch angle during tandem welding, and when the leading electrode reaches the tandem welding starting point P2, the leading electrode arcs. To start tandem welding. In this way, the starting end treatment welding is performed by the single arc welding using only the trailing electrode at the starting end treatment welding starting point P1 → the welding line starting point Ps → the tandem welding starting point P2.

That is, (e) When the leading electrode reaches the tandem welding start point P2, an arc is generated in the leading electrode to start the tandem welding, the tandem welding proceeds, and the trailing electrode ends at the tandem welding end point P3. When it reaches, the arc of the trailing electrode is stopped. In this way, tandem arc welding is performed with the leading electrode and the trailing electrode at the tandem welding start point P2 → tandem welding end point P3.

The tandem welding end point P3 and the terminating welding end point P4 on the welding line are the welding line end point Pe.
It is better to set (teach) the position in the range of 20 to 60 mm away from the welding line starting point Ps side. The tandem welding end point P3 at which the arc of the trailing electrode is stopped is set apart from the welding line end point Pe by a distance of (interelectrode distance) + (predetermined distance). The inter-electrode distance between the leading electrode and the trailing electrode is, for example, 15 mm. The P on the welding line
The 3 points and the P4 point may be set at different positions,
It is preferable to set the same position (coordinate position) from the point that the weld bead height (welding height) is the same in the terminating welded portion and the tandem welded portion. The setting position of the tandem welding end point P3 from the welding line end point Pe and the setting position of the termination processing welding end point P4 from the welding line end point Pe are 2
If it is less than 0 mm, the weld length of the termination welded portion is too short, and the weld bead shape is likely to be defective. On the other hand, when it exceeds 60 mm, the welded portion at the start end is too long, which causes a decrease in welding efficiency. The setting range is more preferably 30 to
It is 45 mm.

In this termination welding, first,
(F) After the arc of the trailing electrode is stopped at the tandem welding end point P3, the leading electrode that is torch traveling toward the welding line end point Pe is 2 to 45 toward the welding line end point Pe direction. The torch angle of the leading electrode is changed so that the advancing angle is in the range of °. By setting the torch angle to the advance angle within the above range, the arc of the preceding electrode can be directly applied to the welding line end point Pe located at the corner with the interference member, and the welding line end point Pe located at the corner is good. Good penetration and weld bead familiarity can be obtained. If the torch angle is less than 2 ° advancing, the above effect cannot be sufficiently obtained. On the other hand, if the torch angle exceeds 45 ° advancing, the torch tilts too much, causing a problem such that the lower end of the torch nozzle contacts the work. . More preferably 5 to 30 °
Is the advancing angle in the range. (G) When the preceding electrode reaches the welding line end point Pe, the torch travel is temporarily stopped. In this case, the torch traveling temporary stop time at the welding line end point Pe is preferably in the range of 0.3 to 3.0 seconds. When the torch travel suspension time is less than 0.3 seconds, the arc hits at the welding line end point Pe are insufficient and the welding bead is not well adapted. On the other hand, when it exceeds 3.0 seconds, the welding amount becomes excessive and the bead becomes excessive. The appearance and bead shape will be defective. This torch travel suspension time is more preferably in the range of 0.5 to 2.0 seconds. When the leading end process welding is performed while weaving the leading electrode, the torch travel may be temporarily stopped at the welding line end point Pe while continuing the weaving operation of the leading electrode.

(H) Next, after the traveling is temporarily stopped, the torch traveling direction is reversed, the torch angle of the leading electrode is returned to the torch angle during tandem welding, and when the leading electrode reaches the termination processing welding end point P4, the torch is reached. The traveling is stopped and the crater processing is performed for a predetermined time under the crater processing conditions. The crater processing time is preferably in the range of 0.2 to 5.0 seconds. If the crater treatment time is less than the above range, the amount of welding to fill the recess of the bead crater is insufficient and crater cracking is likely to occur, while if it exceeds the above range, the amount of welding is excessive and the connection part with the tandem welded portion becomes The bead appearance deteriorates due to excessive swelling.
