Abstract

The invention discloses a method for monitoring the electric arc length through electric arc voltage signals. According to the method for monitoring the electric arc length through the electric arc voltage signals, by means of real-time detection of electric arc voltage signal waveforms in the process of welding or additive manufacturing of an electric arc, an electric arc voltage time-domain signal waveform higher than an electric arc voltage threshold value is extracted, so as to obtain an electric arc voltage time-domain feature waveform, noise elimination is conducted on the electric arc voltage time-domain feature waveform through wavelet analysis, low-frequency components of the electric arc voltage time-domain feature waveform are extracted through wavelet packet analysis, an electric arc voltage signal low-frequency component feature waveform graph is drawn, the electric arc voltage signal low-frequency component feature waveform is substituted into an electric arc length mathematical model, an electric arc length change time-domain waveform in the machining process is obtained through calculation, and the electric arc length at any machining moment in the machining process can be obtained through the electric arc length change time-domain waveform. By the adoption of the method for monitoring the electric arc length through the electric arc voltage signals, offline detection and online monitoring of the electric arc length in the electric arc welding processes of TIG, MIG, MAG, PAW and the like and in the metal material electric arc additive manufacturing process can be achieved.
