Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a pulse control and waveform adjustment method and device for welding rust-proof painted plates, belonging to the field of rust-proof painted plate welding technology. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of welding technology, the application of gas metal arc welding (GMAW) has become increasingly common and widespread, and welding technologies based on GMAW are emerging one after another.

[0003] Gas metal arc welding (GMAW), as one of the most widely used welding processes, has the following advantages: ① high efficiency and fast welding speed; ② deep penetration and small welding deformation; ③ ability to weld in various positions, offering high flexibility; ④ open arc operation, facilitating observation of the molten pool and arc. With the widespread application of GMAW, higher demands have been placed on welding speed and quality, leading to the development of pulsed GMAW. Pulsed GMAW possesses advantages not found in traditional GMAW, including a more stable welding process, less spatter, and less material loss. During production, welders can perform workpiece welding manually or using robots. However, in welding production, instability can sometimes occur during pulsed welding due to the influence of on-site conditions and base material.

[0004] To prevent steel from rusting, manufacturers often spray a layer of anti-rust paint onto the steel surface. However, the presence of this paint can cause instability in the pulse welding process during welding, leading to abnormal arcs and a decline in weld quality, which can even result in product scrap in severe cases.

[0005] Enhancing the adaptability of pulse welding to anti-rust paint and minimizing its impact on the welding process is a major challenge in gas metal arc welding (GMAW). Generally, when welding anti-rust painted plates, the welding area needs to be ground before welding, followed by surface spraying after welding. This method is time-consuming and labor-intensive, hindering welding efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a pulse control and waveform adjustment method and device for welding anti-rust paint plates. By adjusting the pulse control method and pulse waveform, the influence of anti-rust paint on welding can be effectively reduced, achieving the effect of normal welding without prior grinding.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is implemented using the following technical solution:

[0008] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a pulse control and waveform adjustment method for welding rust-proof painted plates, comprising:

[0009] Obtain the initial values ​​of the pulse waveform parameters before welding begins and the actual output pulse peak voltage Us at the start of welding. The initial values ​​of the pulse waveform parameters include the voltage anomaly detection voltage Ua.

[0010] By comparing the actual output pulse peak voltage Us with the voltage anomaly detection voltage Ua, it is determined whether an abnormal voltage has occurred.

[0011] When an abnormal voltage occurs, the pulse control mode is changed from variable period to fixed period control mode;

[0012] Calculate new pulse waveform parameter values ​​using Us and Ua, and then adjust the pulse waveform using these new parameter values.

[0013] Furthermore, the step of determining whether an abnormal voltage has occurred by comparing the actual output pulse peak voltage Us with the voltage anomaly detection voltage Ua includes:

[0014] If the actual output pulse peak voltage Us is greater than or equal to the voltage anomaly detection voltage Ua, it is determined that no abnormal voltage has occurred;

[0015] If the actual output pulse peak voltage Us is less than the voltage anomaly detection voltage Ua, it is determined that an abnormal voltage has occurred.

[0016] Furthermore, if no abnormal voltage is detected, the pulse waveform is not adjusted. If an abnormal voltage is detected, the pulse waveform is adjusted in the next pulse cycle and the abnormality is detected again until no abnormal voltage is detected, at which point the pulse waveform adjustment process ends.

[0017] Furthermore, the initial values ​​of the pulse waveform parameters also include the first pulse fall time L1, the second pulse fall time L2, the pulse peak current I1, the pulse base current I2, and the pulse second base current I3, wherein the pulse second base current I3 is equal to the pulse base current I2 in the initial state.

[0018] Furthermore, the calculation of new pulse waveform parameter values ​​using Us and Ua includes:

[0019] The specific formulas for calculating the new pulse second fall time L2, pulse second base current I3, and pulse peak current I1 are as follows:

[0020] L2' = L2 + K1*(Us - Ua)

[0021] I3' = I3 + K2*(Us - Ua)

[0022] I1' = I1 + K3*(Us - Ua)

[0023] K1 and K2 are both negative values, while K3 is a positive value.

[0024] Furthermore, when adjusting the pulse waveform using the new pulse waveform parameter values, the first pulse fall time L1 is not adjusted, but the pulse waveform is adjusted using L2', I3', and I1'.

[0025] Secondly, the present invention provides a pulse control and waveform adjustment device for welding rust-proof painted plates, comprising:

[0026] The acquisition module is used to acquire the initial values ​​of the pulse waveform parameters before welding starts and the actual output pulse peak voltage Us at the start of welding. The initial values ​​of the pulse waveform parameters include the voltage anomaly judgment voltage Ua.

[0027] The judgment module is used to determine whether an abnormal voltage has occurred by comparing the actual output pulse peak voltage Us with the voltage abnormality judgment voltage Ua.

[0028] The pulse control adjustment module is used to change the pulse control mode from variable period to fixed period control mode when an abnormal voltage occurs.

[0029] The waveform adjustment module is used to calculate new pulse waveform parameter values ​​using Us and Ua, and then adjust the pulse waveform using these new parameter values.

[0030] Thirdly, the present invention provides a computer-readable storage medium having a computer program stored thereon, which, when executed by a processor, implements the steps of any of the preceding methods.

[0031] Fourthly, the present invention provides a computer device / equipment / system, characterized in that it comprises:

[0032] Memory, used to store computer programs / instructions;

[0033] A processor for executing the computer program / instructions to implement the steps of any of the preceding methods.

[0034] Fifthly, the present invention provides a computer program product, including a computer program / instructions, characterized in that, when the computer program / instructions are executed by a processor, they implement the steps of any of the methods described above.

[0035] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by the present invention are as follows:

[0036] This invention provides a pulse control and waveform adjustment method and device for welding rust-proof paint plates. By adjusting the pulse control method and pulse waveform, the influence of rust-proof paint on welding is effectively reduced, achieving the effect of normal welding without prior grinding.

[0041] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, and should not be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0042] Example 1

[0043] This embodiment describes a pulse control and waveform adjustment method for welding rust-proof painted plates, including:

[0044] Obtain the initial values ​​of the pulse waveform parameters before welding begins and the actual output pulse peak voltage Us at the start of welding. The initial values ​​of the pulse waveform parameters include the voltage anomaly detection voltage Ua.

[0045] By comparing the actual output pulse peak voltage Us with the voltage anomaly detection voltage Ua, it is determined whether an abnormal voltage has occurred.

[0046] When an abnormal voltage occurs, the pulse control mode is changed from variable period to fixed period control mode;

[0047] Calculate new pulse waveform parameter values ​​using Us and Ua, and then adjust the pulse waveform using these new parameter values.

[0048] The pulse control and waveform adjustment method for welding rust-proof paint plates provided in this embodiment involves the following steps in its application:

[0049] The first step is to record the data used in the calculation.

[0050] Before welding begins, record the first pulse fall time L1, the second pulse fall time L2, the pulse peak current I1, the pulse base current I2, the pulse second base current I3, and the voltage anomaly detection voltage Ua as the initial values ​​for the initial stage of welding. In the initial state, the pulse second base current I3 is equal to the pulse base current I2.

[0051] When welding begins, the actual output pulse peak voltage Us is recorded in real time.

[0052] The second step is to determine if there is any abnormal voltage.

[0053] The specific judgment method is as follows:

[0054] By comparing the actual output pulse peak voltage Us with the voltage anomaly detection voltage Ua, it is determined whether an abnormal voltage has occurred.

[0055] 1> Mode 1: If the actual output pulse peak voltage Us is greater than or equal to the voltage anomaly detection voltage Ua, i.e., Us≥Ua, then it is in a normal state, as shown in the attached diagram. Figure 1 As shown;

[0056] 2> Mode 2: If the actual output pulse peak voltage Us is less than the voltage anomaly detection voltage Ua, i.e., Us < Ua, then it is determined to be an abnormal voltage. This is an abnormal state, as shown in the attached diagram. Figure 2 As shown;

[0057] The third step is to adjust the waveform based on the judgment results:

[0058] 1> If Us≥Ua, no abnormality occurs, and the pulse control and waveform are not adjusted.

[0059] 2> If Us < Ua, an anomaly occurs. In this case, the output waveform is an abnormal pulse waveform, which needs to be adjusted. The adjustment steps are as follows:

[0060] The first step is to change the pulse control mode from variable period to fixed period control mode, that is, the time of each pulse cycle is consistent and does not change during welding;

[0061] The second step is pulse waveform adjustment. The first pulse fall time L1 is not adjusted. The second pulse fall time L2, the second pulse base current I3, and the pulse peak current I1 are adjusted as follows:

[0062] L2' = L2 + K1*(Us - Ua)

[0063] I3' = I3 + K2*(Us - Ua)

[0064] I1' = I1 + K3*(Us - Ua)

[0065] K1 and K2 are both negative values, and K3 is a positive value. The new value obtained is used as the new parameter of the current pulse waveform.

[0066] Through the above solutions and actual welding verification, adjusting the pulse control and waveform can achieve the purpose of adjusting the arc state, so that the improved pulse arc can be adapted to the welding of anti-rust paint plates.

[0067] Appendix Figure 1The pulse waveform diagram is shown when the actual output pulse peak voltage Us is greater than or equal to the voltage anomaly judgment voltage Ua, that is, when Us≥Ua. At this time, no anomaly has occurred, and the pulse waveform is not adjusted.

[0068] Appendix Figure 2 The pulse waveform diagram is shown when the actual output pulse peak voltage Us is less than the voltage anomaly judgment voltage Ua, i.e., Us < Ua. At this time, it is judged that an anomaly has occurred and the pulse waveform needs to be adjusted.

[0069] Appendix Figure 3 This is an adjustment diagram of the pulse waveform. After an abnormality is detected, the pulse waveform is adjusted. For specific adjustment methods, please refer to the above text. The adjustment trend of the pulse waveform is: the pulse peak current I1 decreases, the pulse second base current I3 increases, the pulse first fall time L1 remains unchanged, and the pulse second fall time L2 increases.

[0070] By adjusting the pulse waveform, the following electric arc state can be presented:

[0071] 1. By adjusting the pulse waveform, the welding capability of the pulse arc for rust-proof paint plates can be improved.

[0072] 2. Regardless of how the pulse waveform is adjusted, a stable one-pulse-one-droplet transition state can be guaranteed, and the arc maintains good stability throughout the entire welding process.

[0073] It should be noted that this patent does not explicitly specify the corresponding relationship between the adjustment amounts of the pulse peak current, the pulse second base current, the pulse first fall time, and the pulse second fall time when adjusting the pulse waveform. The adjustment amounts of the four can change with the welding material, shielding gas, or welding conditions, but as long as they conform to the overall trend of current waveform adjustment, they are within the protection scope of this patent.

[0074] Appendix Figure 4 This is a flowchart of the entire welding process. When the welding machine is turned on, before welding begins, the initial values ​​for the following pulse parameters are set: first pulse fall time L1, second pulse fall time L2, peak pulse current I1, base pulse current I2, second base pulse current I3, and voltage anomaly detection voltage Ua.

[0075] When welding begins, the actual output pulse peak voltage Us is recorded in real time, and the relationship between the actual output pulse peak voltage Us and the voltage anomaly judgment voltage Ua is compared to determine whether an anomaly has occurred. If no anomaly is found, the pulse waveform is not adjusted. If an anomaly is found, the pulse waveform is adjusted in the next pulse cycle and the anomaly is judged again until no anomaly is found, at which point the pulse waveform adjustment process ends.

[0079] The judgment module is used to determine whether an abnormal voltage has occurred by comparing the actual output pulse peak voltage Us with the voltage abnormality judgment voltage Ua.

[0080] The pulse control adjustment module is used to change the pulse control mode from variable period to fixed period control mode when an abnormal voltage occurs.

[0081] The waveform adjustment module is used to calculate new pulse waveform parameter values ​​using Us and Ua, and then adjust the pulse waveform using these new parameter values.
