[0020] It should be pointed out that the above modules are only the basic steps of this embodiment. In the specific implementation process, some steps can be appropriately added, reduced or modified without affecting the overall implementation effect.

[0021] The steps for generating the initial welding path according to the geometric relationship between the top width parameter and the tilt angle parameter are as follows: Perform three-dimensional contour scanning on the top width parameter of the tank body to obtain measurement data of the top width parameter and collect real-time data of the inclination angle parameter; According to the measurement data and real-time data, the starting point coordinates and the end point coordinates are selected in the tank reference coordinate system; The route is planned according to the starting point coordinates and the end point coordinates to generate a planned path, the path curvature characteristic value is obtained according to the planned path, and the starting point coordinates, the end point coordinates and the path curvature characteristic value are combined to obtain an initial path data set; The geometric shape parameters of the welding gun end are obtained, and the initial path data set is processed by equidistant offset according to the geometric shape parameters to obtain the target data set; A modified spatial coordinate sequence of the welding center line is obtained according to the target data set, and an initial welding path is generated according to the spatial coordinate sequence.

[0022] In application, taking the welding process of RTJ slots in a factory as an example, a certain elliptical slot body was scanned, and the top width parameters were measured to be 65mm at the long axis, 45mm at the short axis, and the inclination angle parameter was 25°. The starting point (0,0,0) and the end point (300,0,0) were selected in the reference coordinate system, and the path curvature characteristic value was planned to be 0.05 / mm. The end of the welding gun is a nozzle with a cone angle of 60°. After equidistant offset processing, the target data set is obtained, and the spatial coordinate sequence interval of the initial welding path is generated with a 0.1mm interval. During actual welding, the corrected welding center line is offset by +0.2mm in the X direction, and the Y direction maintains a fluctuation of ±0.1mm.

[0023] The steps of establishing a multi-layer welding trajectory model based on a three-dimensional spatial relationship and generating dynamic welding path data including inter-layer trajectory offset are as follows: Extract data from the target data set to obtain the inter-layer trajectory offset parameters in the initial welding path; Obtain the welding layer number, increment the inter-layer trajectory offset according to the welding layer number, and generate an arithmetic sequence; Obtain the material expansion coefficient and the current layer temperature, and generate thermal deformation compensation according to the expansion coefficient and the current layer temperature; The inter-layer trajectory offset parameters are compensated according to the thermal deformation compensation amount and the arithmetic sequence to obtain the target offset parameters, and the multi-layer welding trajectory model is constructed according to the target offset parameters; According to the multi-layer welding trajectory model, a control instruction set of layer height control threshold and inter-layer overlap rate is obtained, and dynamic welding path data is obtained based on the instruction set.

[0024] In application, taking the welding process of RTJ slots in a factory as an example, when welding a stainless steel slot, the initial interlayer trajectory offset is set to 0.3mm. An arithmetic sequence is generated by increasing the welding layer number, and the offsets of the 1st to 5th layers are 0.3 / 0.8 / 1.3 / 1.8 / 2.3mm respectively. The material expansion coefficient is measured to be 1.2×10^-5 / °C, and the thermal deformation compensation is calculated to be 0.15mm when the current layer temperature is 250°C. The final target offset parameter is adjusted to 0.45mm, the layer height control threshold of the constructed 5-layer welding trajectory model is 2mm, and the interlayer overlap rate is set to 35%.

[0025] The steps to correct the three-dimensional coordinate offset of the welding gun are as follows: Based on the arc voltage fluctuation data, the real-time waveform data of the arc voltage is obtained, and the voltage fluctuation feature vector is obtained by multi-scale decomposition of the real-time waveform data; Based on the frequency characteristics of droplet transition, the time series image data of the droplet transition process is obtained, the standard deviation of the time intervals between adjacent droplet formations is obtained according to the time series image data, and the transition stability index is obtained according to the standard deviation; The voltage fluctuation characteristic vector and the transition stability index are input into a preset prediction model to obtain the welding gun lateral offset compensation amount; The lateral offset compensation amount is input into the spatial coordinate register of the welding gun to correct the three-dimensional coordinate offset of the welding gun.

[0026] In application, taking the RTJ slot welding process in a factory as an example, the arc voltage was monitored to fluctuate between 25-28V during a welding process, and the voltage fluctuation feature vector [0.5, 1.2, 0.8] was obtained through multi-scale decomposition. The droplet transition image analysis showed that the time interval standard deviation was 0.15s and the transition stability index was 0.85. The prediction model outputted the lateral offset compensation amount X+0.3mm / Y-0.2mm. After updating the welding gun coordinate register, the three-dimensional coordinate offset was corrected from (0,0,0) to (0.3,-0.2,0).

[0027] The steps for executing the step-by-step cladding control according to the preset cladding layering strategy are as follows: Based on the preset cladding layering strategy, the cladding layering strategy is disassembled to obtain the total depths of multiple tanks; Arrange the total depth of the tank to obtain a depth series rule, and obtain the layer thickness threshold parameter according to the depth series rule; Obtain the current welding layer number, obtain the preset swing amplitude parameter corresponding to the current layer number according to the current welding layer number, and obtain the inter-layer swing frequency compensation coefficient according to the swing amplitude parameter and the layer thickness threshold parameter; Generate an acceleration control signal of the periodic swing trajectory of the welding gun according to the inter-layer swing frequency compensation coefficient; When the welding gun triggers an acceleration control signal during interlayer transition, an inclination compensation parameter is generated according to the layer thickness threshold parameter, and the welding gun is controlled to perform side wall welding according to the inclination compensation parameter.

[0028] In application, taking the welding process of RTJ slots in a factory as an example, when a 15mm deep slot body is layered, the total depth is divided into five 3mm layers. When welding the third layer, the swing amplitude parameter is set to ±1.5mm, and the swing frequency compensation coefficient of 1.2 is generated in combination with the layer thickness threshold. The generated acceleration control signal is 0.5g. After triggering, the welding gun automatically increases the tilt angle compensation by 10° when welding on the side wall to ensure that the penetration depth reaches 2.8mm.

[0029] The steps of obtaining the molten pool coverage width, extracting the correlation between the temperature gradient parameter between welding layers and the molten pool coverage width, and adjusting the welding travel speed based on the correlation are specifically as follows: Based on the path curvature characteristic value, the path curvature is monitored in real time to obtain the tangent angle difference between adjacent path points, and the path curvature change parameter is obtained based on the tangent angle difference; Obtain the current traveling speed of the welding gun, establish a quantitative relationship model based on the curvature change parameter and the current traveling speed, and generate a traveling speed adjustment coefficient according to the quantitative relationship model; Obtain the molten pool coverage width and extract the correlation between the temperature gradient parameters between welding layers and the molten pool coverage width; The pulse frequency output value of the servo motor is obtained according to the travel speed adjustment coefficient and the correlation relationship, and the welding travel speed is adjusted according to the pulse frequency output value.

[0030] In application, taking the welding process of RTJ slot in a factory as an example, a curvature change slot body monitors the tangent angle difference of adjacent path points to be 8°, and the curvature change parameter is 0.08 / mm. When the current travel speed is 200mm / min, the quantitative model outputs an adjustment coefficient of 0.9. Combined with the correlation between the temperature gradient parameter 12°C / mm and the molten pool width 7.5mm, the servo motor pulse frequency is adjusted from 2000Hz to 1800Hz, and the final travel speed is reduced to 180mm / min.

[0031] Dynamically matching the cumulative welding layer characteristic value with the preset tank depth judgment threshold to obtain a matching result, and executing the lane change welding instruction according to the matching result, specifically, the steps are as follows: Based on the welding path, path nodes are set on the welding path. After the welding gun passes through the path nodes, the number of path points is counted to obtain the characteristic value of the cumulative number of welding layers. Dynamically matching the cumulative welding layer characteristic value with the preset groove depth judgment threshold to obtain a matching result; Obtain the uniform value of the weld width and the interlayer fusion area of ​​the current welding layer, and obtain the cladding quality evaluation parameters based on the uniform value of the weld width and the interlayer fusion area; The optimized adjustment amount of lane-changing spacing is obtained by combining the matching results and the cladding quality evaluation parameters, and a lane-changing path control data set with a smooth transition curve is generated based on the optimized adjustment amount; A lane-changing welding instruction is generated based on the lane-changing path control data set, and the welding gun is called to perform the lane-changing operation according to the lane-changing welding instruction.

[0032] In application, taking the welding process of RTJ slots in a factory as an example, a ring slot body is set with 36 path nodes, and the depth threshold is matched when the cumulative number of welding layers reaches 24 layers. The average value of the current layer's weld width is 0.95, the fusion area is 85mm², and the evaluation parameters are excellent. The lane change spacing optimization adjustment amount +0.2mm is generated, and the lane change path control data set contains 3 Bezier curves with a smooth transition radius of R5mm. When executing the lane change command, the welding gun completes the X-axis 1.2mm offset within 0.5 seconds.
