[0002] Flash butt welding is an important resistance pressure welding method and is widely used in the connection of metal materials. The basic principle of flash butt welding is to fix the two workpieces to be welded on the welding equipment, turn on the power, and use the feeding mechanism to drive the weldments to gradually approach each other, so that the end faces of the weldments are in partial contact; at the contact point, due to the effect of resistance heat, the metal quickly heats up to the melting point, forming a "flash" phenomenon, and continuously spraying metal droplets. With the steady feeding of the weldment, the entire weld end face is gradually covered by a layer of liquid metal. When the liquid metal layer reaches a certain thickness, the upsetting force is quickly applied to form a bond between the two weldments in the liquid phase, and finally a welded joint is formed through plastic deformation.

[0049] The flash butt welding in this embodiment is an efficient solid phase welding method, which can obtain a high-quality weld in one step. Compared with other welding technologies, its advantages are mainly reflected in:
[0050] (1) It is solid phase welding, there is no molten pool, no need to add deposited metal, and the weld composition is the same as the base material;
[0051] (2) High degree of automation, short welding cycle and high efficiency, independent of welder skills, and stable welding quality;
[0052] (3) There is no need for precise processing of the end of the weldment before welding. The cross-sectional shape of the workpiece is formed in one step. No welding materials and gas protection are required, which reduces the welding cost and is suitable for welding (special-shaped) large-section workpieces.
[0053] (4) There are no defects such as slag inclusions and pores, the residual stress is small, the strength is close to the parent material, and high-quality welds can be obtained. Flash welding has been widely used in rail transportation, automobiles, bridges, construction, steel, oil and gas transportation and other fields.
[0054] As one of the embodiments, the flash butt welding process includes preheating flash butt welding, continuous flash butt welding, pulse flash butt welding and program-controlled step-down flash butt welding; setting the welding process parameters includes setting the welding voltage, welding current, feed speed, displacement, burn-off amount, holding time and top forging time, etc.
[0055] Among them, the preheating flash welding process can weld 5000~10000mm 2 Large ferrous metal parts; continuous flash butt welding process is mainly used for end faces 1000mm 2 The joints of left and right closed parts, such as rims, aluminum windows, etc.; the pulse flash butt welding process can weld 100,000mm 2 For large-section oil and gas pipelines, the thermal efficiency is increased by more than 1 times, and the top forging allowance is shortened by 2 / 3 to 1 / 2. The program-controlled step-down flash butt welding process adopts the high-pressure-low-pressure-high-pressure method during the welding process, which has the advantages of uniform heating and short welding time.
[0056] In this embodiment, the host computer system is also used to implement functions such as system monitoring (alarm information, device status and sensor data, etc.), data management (data storage and call, etc.), etc.
[0057] Furthermore, in the PLC system of this embodiment, PLC refers to a programmable logic controller; the PLC system of this embodiment is composed of a Siemens S7 1500 high-performance PLC and related modules; in addition to controlling the feeding action of the feeding system according to the flash butt welding process and welding process parameters, the PLC system can also be used to control the action of the entire equipment, collect equipment signals and collect sensor signals.
[0058] As one of the implementation modes, the feeding system includes a high-frequency response servo valve and a high-frequency vibration servo cylinder to achieve high speed response and high-precision control of the flash butt welding feeding process.
[0059] The servo valve is an electro-hydraulic conversion element that can convert electrical signals into hydraulic signals to control the pressure, flow and direction of the hydraulic system. The servo cylinder is a hydraulic actuator. In this application, the distance between the two workpieces is controlled by the feed (including forward and backward) of the servo cylinder to control the welding current and realize flash process welding.
[0060] Therefore, the PLC system adjusts the flow of the feed system according to the flash butt welding process and process parameters by controlling the opening of the high-frequency response servo valve, thereby realizing the feed speed of the servo cylinder.
[0061] The feeding action of the servo cylinder is to perform corresponding feeding actions according to the flash welding process set in the upper computer system; wherein, the feeding action includes alternating forward or backward (preheating flash process), continuous feeding (continuous flash process), high frequency response control (pulse flash process) or high voltage-low voltage-high voltage alternating voltage control (programmed voltage reduction process), etc.
[0062] The flash welding process generally includes flash flat, continuous flash (pulse flash), accelerated burning and rapid upsetting. The electro-hydraulic control system of the present application is based on a feed system composed of a high-frequency response servo valve and a high-frequency vibration servo cylinder, and through a high-performance PLC system, the maximum response time of the feed system is 1ms, and the maximum vibration frequency of the cylinder is 50Hz, which far meets the requirements of the pulse flash welding process; and through the control of the servo valve by the PLC program in the PLC system, the feed system can realize rapid alternating forward and backward (preheating flash), continuous feeding (continuous flash), high-frequency response control (pulse flash), and high-low-high voltage alternating voltage control (program-controlled step-down).
[0063] In addition, different flash butt welding process composite controls can be selected according to welding materials, power distribution conditions, welding head requirements, etc. For example, on the basis of continuous flash, a preheating flash process is added before welding to improve preheating efficiency and achieve rapid heating; program-controlled voltage reduction control is added in the flash flattening stage to achieve rapid flash flattening; before accelerating the burning, a pulse flash welding process or a pulse continuous flash welding alternating process control is adopted, which can significantly save electric energy, reduce material loss (burning amount), and realize the function of welding large-section weldments with a small power supply. And based on the electro-hydraulic control system with large flow and high pressure, the requirements of the fast upsetting process for the upsetting speed and upsetting pressure can be realized, and the welding oxide can be quickly and effectively extruded, greatly reducing the upsetting amount. Therefore, the present application is based on the electro-hydraulic control system with high frequency response and large flow and high pressure, and the control of the composite flash butt welding process of the flash butt welding process is more efficient, more energy-saving, less burning amount and upsetting amount (reducing welding material loss), the welding process is more controllable, and the quality of the welded joint is more stable.
[0064] As one implementation method, the feeding speed of the feeding system is controlled according to the comparison result of the welding energy value to realize the real-time closed-loop feedback control of energy, which specifically includes:
[0065] According to the comparison result of the welding energy value, the opening of the high-frequency response servo valve in the feeding system is adjusted by a PID algorithm, thereby controlling the speed of the high-frequency vibration servo cylinder in the feeding system.
[0066] As one embodiment, the electro-hydraulic control system further includes a welding power source;
[0067] The welding power supply is used to adjust the voltage of the welded parts according to the set flash butt welding process and the set welding process parameters to control the total power output.
[0068] As one implementation method, the electro-hydraulic control system further includes a position sensor;
[0069] The position sensor is used to collect position information of a high-frequency vibrating servo cylinder in a feed system.
[0070] Specifically, in the initial stage of flash butt welding, that is, before the weldments are in contact and the welding current is formed, the position information of the two high-frequency vibration servo cylinders is collected by the position sensor within a preset interval time, and the speed of the high-frequency vibration servo cylinders in the initial stage is calculated based on the position information of the two high-frequency vibration servo cylinders and the preset interval time; for example: the preset interval time is 10ms, and the position information C1 and C2 of the two servo cylinders are collected respectively within 10ms, and the two position information are collected successively in time sequence; then the speed V of the high-frequency vibration servo cylinder in the initial stage can be obtained by subtracting the previous position information from the latter time-sequenced position information and dividing it by the preset interval time, that is, V=(C2-C1) / T.
[0071] Based on the speed in the initial stage, the speed of the servo cylinder in the feeding system is controlled by the PID algorithm and the PLC system, that is, the servo valve adjusts the opening according to the control signal (the output of the control quantity calculated by PID), thereby changing the feeding speed of the servo cylinder. In this way, closed-loop high-precision control of the feeding speed in the initial stage of flash butt welding can be achieved. Among them, PID is a commonly used closed-loop controller that aims to calculate the control quantity based on the deviation between the target value (set value) and the actual value (feedback value).
[0072] The position sensor and voltage and current sensor in the electro-hydraulic control system of the present application provide two kinds of information, position feedback and energy feedback, respectively. Both kinds of information can be used to control the opening of the servo valve, and then control the feed speed of the servo cylinder; different control strategies can be selected according to actual needs. In this embodiment, in the initial stage of flash butt welding, that is, before the weldment is in contact and the welding current is not formed, the position information provided by the position sensor is used to adjust the opening of the servo valve to control the feed speed of the servo cylinder. When the weldment begins to contact and the welding current is formed, the actual welding energy value calculated according to the instantaneous current and voltage is compared with the initial energy value set by the host computer, and the opening of the servo valve is adjusted according to the comparison result to control the feed speed of the servo cylinder; in addition, in some complex or special welding processes, it is necessary to use position feedback and energy feedback to control the servo valve at the same time. At this time, the electro-hydraulic control system will monitor these two feedback information at the same time, and select the corresponding control strategy according to which parameter reaches its set value first.
[0073] This application also provides a flash butt welding electro-hydraulic control method, see Figure 2 , comprising the following steps:
[0074] S1. Setting the flash butt welding process and welding process parameters;
[0075] S2. Controlling the feeding action of the feeding system according to the flash butt welding process and welding process parameters;

[0077] S4, comparing the actual welding energy value with the initial welding energy value set by the host computer system;
[0078] S5. Controlling the feeding speed of the feeding system according to the comparison result to achieve real-time closed-loop feedback control of energy.
[0079] In summary, the present application provides a flash butt welding electro-hydraulic control system and control method, which simultaneously meets the process control requirements of preheating flash butt welding, continuous flash butt welding, pulse flash butt welding and program-controlled step-down flash butt welding, and has higher control accuracy and high-frequency response speed, as well as composite control of any flash butt welding process, to provide a suitable flash butt welding composite control process for welds with different welding materials and process requirements, and to provide a solution for flash butt welding of more efficient welding, more energy-saving methods, less consumables and more stable welding joints. In addition, the present application realizes high-precision speed control based on high-performance PLC and high-response feeding system on the one hand, and adopts energy (the product of welding current and voltage) feedback control on the other hand to reduce the influence of welding voltage fluctuation and feed speed accuracy and mutation, so as to obtain better welding joint quality.
