Abstract

Abstract As the weld pool contains abundant information about the welding process, the skilled welder always utilizes the observed information to control the weld pool to get a good weld quality. In this paper, a real-time vision sensing technology is used as the eyes of the welder to observe the gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) pool surface and a 3D reconstruction technology is used to reconstruct the observed weld pool surface in three-dimensions. The geometric parameters are obtained from the reconstructed pool surface. Step responses are conducted to acquire the relationship between the weld pool geometric parameters and the random variation of current, and the time-domain analysis of the system is done. Various random experiments are also conducted and the dynamic relationship of the weld current and the weld pool geometric parameters is established by means of a non-linear Hammerstein model.
