Abstract

PURPOSE:To perform optimum arc sensor profile welding only by trial welding of several times by carrying out graphic display of vertical direction correction information and crosswise direction correction information outputted from an arc sensor circuit. CONSTITUTION:Welding is performed in a state without arc sensor profile to temporarily determine object welding conditions. The vertical direction correction information is displayed on a graph. Since the vertical direction correction information is the difference between a welding current value set at the present time and a reference current value, the welding conditions are corrected so that this value is diminished to zero, by which a rough initial welding current and a reference welding current can be set. The change with the lapse of time of the vertical and crosswise direction correction information stored in an internal memory is then displayed on the graph and an average value and the standard deviation are calulated. While the graph is caught visually, the ideal reference welding current can be known.

2. Description of the Related Art An arc sensor, as shown in FIG. 1, detects a change in a welding phenomenon that occurs when a robot swings a welding torch 1, and the robot controls the welding torch 1.
It has a function of correcting the relative positional relationship between the tip and the workpiece 2 that is the base material. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 2, the difference between the actual welding current signal 3 during welding and the reference welding current signal 4 taught in advance is calculated as a welding current deviation value (the actual welding voltage signal and the reference welding current signal 4). Sometimes it is a voltage signal,
For convenience of explanation, the actual welding current signal and the reference welding current signal are representatively described), and this is used as position correction information between the welding torch 1 tip and the workpiece 2 that is the base material, that is, vertical correction information 6. This is taken into the robot control device, and a value obtained by multiplying it by a certain coefficient (hereinafter referred to as vertical gain) is used as the vertical correction amount 8, and the playback position is corrected with respect to the taught position.

Further, each oscillating end position correction information of one tip of the welding torch, that is, the horizontal correction amount 18, is taught in advance with the actual welding voltage signal 9 during welding generated by the swing of the welding torch, as shown in FIG.

When performing the teaching work of such an arc sensor system, an operator has so far decided a welding condition (welding current, welding voltage, welding speed) based on a) intuition and experience. B) Check the welding conditions with a welding current meter or welding voltage meter installed in the welding machine, and teach the values to the robot controller as the standard welding current value or standard welding voltage value. Based on my experience, I taught the robot controller the gains for vertical and horizontal directions. In Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 63-224873, a necessary work as an arc sensor is performed by performing a trial welding called a try mode and calculating an average value of a welding current deviation value and an integrated deviation value obtained as a result. Among the above a) to c), a system is proposed which automatically calculates the reference welding current value and the reference welding voltage value of b).

However, this method is not sufficient as a parameter of the arc sensor because it only calculates the reference welding current value and the reference welding voltage value in (b) and does not calculate the vertical gain and the horizontal gain. Then, when judging only by the average value, firstly, when the teaching position in the try mode is different between the start position and the end position in the groove,
Secondly, when the welding conditions themselves are unstable due to incorrect initial welding current values, standard welding voltage values, etc., and thirdly, the heat of the work being welded during the trial mode. When the relative position of the welding torch inside the groove differs between the welding start position and the end position due to distortion, a value different from the actual desired value will be obtained, so at the actual welding site Could not be expected, and there was a possibility that the scanning performance by arc sensing would be deteriorated.

In the prior art arc sensor, the welding conditions (welding current, welding voltage, welding speed) for determining the welding information which is the basis of its operation are determined by the intuition and experience of the operator. Therefore, even if it is not bad as a welding condition when the normal arc sensor is not used, it is often unsuitable as the welding condition captured as information when the arc sensor is used, which the operator himself does not notice. It was

Further, the welding condition is confirmed by a welding current meter or a welding voltage meter installed in the welding machine, and the value is taught to the robot controller as a reference welding current value or a reference welding voltage value. Therefore, the operator himself did not notice that there were many errors with respect to the actual current value and voltage value actually supplied to the welding torch. Moreover,
Since the upper and lower and left and right gains are taught to the robot controller by intuition and experience, the operator himself did not know whether or not the gain was the optimum gain. Due to these factors, not only the performance originally theoretically possessed by the arc sensor itself cannot be sufficiently exerted, but also the use of the arc sensor causes a bad welding result.
