Abstract
In this study, we analyzed the arc magnetic field to assess the stability of the arc welding process, particularly in robotic welding where direct measurement of welding current is challenging, such as under water. The characteristics of the magnetic field were evaluated based on low-frequency fluctuations and the symmetry of the signals. We used double-wire pulsed MIG welding for our experiments, employing Q235 steel with an 8.0 mm thickness as the material. Key parameters included an average voltage of 19.8 V, current of 120 A, and a wire feeding speed of 3.3 m/min. Our spectral analysis revealed significant correlations between welding stability and factors such as the direct current (DC) component and the peak power spectral density (PSD) frequency. To quantify this relationship, we introduced a novel approach using sample entropy and mix sample entropy (MSE) as new evaluation metrics. This method achieved a notable accuracy of 88%, demonstrating its effectiveness in assessing the stability of the robotic welding process.
