최근 모든 산업에 있어서 자동화에 대한 요구가 높아지고 있다. 모든 자동화는 힘들고 어려운 작업을 기계가 인간을 대신하여 수행하며 품질 및 생산성을 향상시킨다는 관점에서 끊임없이 추구되고 있다. 용접 자동화도 그 예외는 아니어서 용접 구조물 제작의 경우, 임의의 용접 경로를 추적하는 방법과 공정 변수의 제어법 등이 현재 연구되고 있다. 특히 용접 공정중 용접선 경로 변화를 측정할 수 있는 센서가 용접 공정의 자동화에 필수적이다. 이러한 센서중에는 아크센서, 시각센서, 초음파센서, 레이저센서가 있으며, 이중 널리 이용되고 있는 것은 팁-모재간의 거리변화에 따른 전류 또는 전압 변화를 모델링하여 위치 정보로 이용하는 아크센서와, 카메라를 이용한 영상 정보를 처리함으로써 토치가 이동해야 항 위치를 찾는 시각센서가 있다.

The contact tip is higher the wear of resistance and the longer life are demanded to GMA welding process. In this study, four different contact tips with three different compositions by two wires were evaluated their wear resistance by measuring in every one hour the area of enlarged hole at the exit side during actual wleding. Experimental results clearly showed that the Cr-containing tips strengthened by precipitation hardening have much better resistance to wear than those made by work hardening. In addition, flux cored wire is excellent abrasion resistance test results showed. Based on these results, the domestic industry, the life of the contact tip to know will be used as basic data.

Effects of electrode tips shapes of spot welding on the galvannealed steel have been studied, and the results obtained from this studies are as follows. 1) Expulsion had no effect on the shear strength of the specimen but been observed on the tensile strength of the specimen. 2) Effect of holding time after welding was neglegible when the spot welding supplies enough heat input. 3) Depending on the sopt welding tip shape it has different weldbility. It has better weldability in the order of pointed shape, truncated shape and dome shape. But the effect of coolind was just the opposite of the above order.

점용접은 자동차를 제작하는데 사용하는 가장 유용한 용접법이다. 그러나 산업현장에서 직면하고 있는 가장 큰 문제점 중의 하나는 점용접의 용접성에 관한 문제이다. 본 연구에서는 강판의 두께가 1.6mm인 경우와 1.2mm인 경우에 대해 2점 점용접을 실시하여 인장강도를 증가시키고 용접의 흔적을 남기지 않게 하기 위한 조건을 찾는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 용접성에 영향을 미치는 많은 요소들이 있다. 그중에서 용접전극의 형상이 인장강도를 증가시키는 요소로 집중을 하면서 연구를 수행하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 인장강도는 용접전극의 형상 및 팁직경 거리와 전류가 클수록 증가하였다. 시행 착오법을 통해 최적용접조건을 찾았고 그에 따른 최적전류인 9,000A와 전극의 형상 RF형을 찾았다. 경도시험결과는 인장력이 시험편에 작용할 때 열 영향부인 HAZ부에서 왜 파괴가 일어나는지를 설명해 주었다.

Reduction of weld distortions and increase in productivity are some of the major goals of the shipbuilding industry. To address these issues, many researchers have attempted to apply new welding processes. In the shipbuilding industry, steel is the candidate material of choice owing to its good weldability. However, conventional welding techniques are not feasible for avoiding welding problems. Tip-rotating arc welding is one of the high-efficiency welding process that has several advantages, such as high welding speed, high melting rate, low heat input, and less distortion. The present study investigates the influence of the welding variables on the weld characteristics of tip-rotating arc welding. Welding was performed using EH36 as the base metal and SM-70s as the filler metal, which are widely used in shipbuilding. Basic experiments were conducted to understand the effects of the major welding variables, such as welding and tip-rotating speeds. The distortion and mechanical properties of the optimal welding conditions were used to evaluate the tip-rotating arc welding performance. Consequently, the feasibility of the tip-rotating arc welding process for joining steel components was investigated, so that the optimized welding conditions could be applied directly to ship body welding to enhance the quality of the welded joints.

전자부품이나 설계된 회로시스템에 납땜을 하기 위해 인두를 사용하는데 누설전류, 서지전압, 정전기, 적절하지 못한 온도 등 여러 가지 악조건으로 인해 부품의 파괴를 가져온다. 특히 C-MOS로 설계된 소자의 경우는 다른 전자부품 보다 더 민감하기 때문에 파괴될 경우가 다발적으로 발생된다. 따라서 절연저항이 높고, 사용자가 적절한 온도로 제어할 수 있는 인두조절기 설계가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는, 인두 히터에 센서를 삽입하여 이 저항의 변화율에 따라 온도를 감지하고, 주파수 방해를 최소화할 수 있는 Zero Voltage Switch IC를 사용하여 히터의 온도를 제어하였다. 또한, 사용자가 온도 변화를 알 수 있도록 A/D 변환기를 사용하여 시그먼트로 표시하였다. 기존에 설계된 시스템은 온도를 감지하는 센서가 민감하며 센서에서 감지된 신호가 비교기를 통해서 직접 히터의 온도를 제어하였기 때문에 온도 변화율이 매우 심하고, 이두팁이 분리되어있지 않기 때문에 절연저항이 매우 낮았다. 본 논문에서는, 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 센서의 민감성을 최소화하고, Zero Voltage Switch IC를 사용하여 히터의 온도를 정밀하게 제어하였으며, 절연저항을 높이기 위해 인두팁의 중간에 세라믹을 삽입하여 팁에 온도만 전달될 수 있도록 용접을 하여 기존의 문제점을 개선하였다.

Spot welding is one of the important welding processes for the construction of thin metal sheet. Because of low investment cost, alternating welding current is widely applied for power source. Direct current type could be, however, recommened for high quality weldment. In this study, the effect of welding current type on the weldability and the electrode life in spot welding of aluminium alloy were investigated. Various welding tests were done by using three phase direct and alternating welding current, respectively. In spite of high variation of welding force, weld quality and electrode life with alternating welding current were shown better results than those with direct current for 2mm thick alumininum alloy sheets. This was due to excessive erosion of the positive electrode in direct welding current compared with the negative one. On the contrary to 2mm sheets, the welding parameters of alternating current for 1mm sheets must be carefully selected.

The Weldability of gavannealed steel using spot welder has been studied. The Results obtained are a follows; 1) Welds size and strength were increased depending on the welding time and welding current. But, the increasing rate has been decreased. 2) Deposited zinc has affected on the wear of welding tips and growth of welds but has not affected the weld's structures. 3) On shear testing of the specimen, button fracture has been observed and the value was approximately 540Kg (welds dia. approximately .phi.4mm)

In this study a new arc sensor algorithm for automatic weld seam tracking was proposed, which uses the relative welding current variation according to the tip-to-workpiece distance in GMA welding. Since the new developed arc sensor algorithm is not sensitive to unstable factors of arc signal, the system is expected to get rid of the problems of already existing arc sensor system which include the difficulty of modeling the process for various welding conditions and limitation of application to thick plate welding. Thus the system is applicable not only to thick plate welding but also to thin plate welding. To implement the new arc sensor algorithm the system parameters which include sampling time, averaging range, weighting factor of moving averaging, basic compensation time, and basic compensation distance were determined by experimental analysis. Consequently this system has shown the successful tracking capability for the various welding conditions.
