Real-time evaluation of automatic production quality control for friction welding machine
摩擦熔接機械 의 自動생산品質制御 實時間 評價
Abstract
Both in-process quality control and high reliability of the weld is one of the major concerns in applying friction welding to the economical and qualified mass-production. No reliable nondestructive monitoring method is available at present to determine the real-time evaluation of automatic production quality control for friction welding machine. This paper, so that, presents the experimental examinations and statistical quantitative analysis of the correlation between the initial cumulative counts of acoustic emission(AE) occurring during plastic deformation period of the welding and the tensile strength of the welded joints as well as the various welding variables, as a new approach which attempts finally to develop an on-line (or real-time) quality monitoring system and a program for the process of real-time friction welding quality evaluation by initial AE cumulative counts. As one of the important results, it was well confirmed that the initial AE cumulative counts were quantitatively and cubically correlated with reliability of 95% confidence level to the joint strength of the welds, bar-to-bar (SCM4 to SUM31, SCM4 to SUM24L) and that an AE technique using initial AE counts can be reliably applied to real-time strength evaluation of the welded joints, and that such a program of the system was well developed resulting in practical possibility of real-time quality control more than 100% joint efficiency showing good weld with no micro-structural defects.
본 연구에서는 기계공업 분야에서 많이 이용되는 구조용 합금강인 Cr-Mo강 (SCM4)과 쾌삭강(SUM31, SUM24L)과의 이종강봉 마찰용접에서 소성변형중에 발생된 초 기 AE량과 용접 품질(강도)제어 사이에 역시 정량적 상관성이 성립함을 용접 회전수, 용접에너지, 용접 업셋 및 용접 시간 등을 매개 변수로 하여 실험과 계산을 통해 입증 하고, 이를 상관식의 95% 신뢰성을 확인한 후, 본 연구의 최종 목적으로서, 마찰용접 평가의 자동화가 이루어지게 하였다.
