A mathematic model of the static and the dynamic properties of the sensor derived on the basis of control theory and experimental method are described. The model extends our understanding of arc sensor from qualitative level to quantitative level. This is important for its design and further development.展开更多

By means of the new technique the arc sensor can recognize not only V-groove but also lap joint and butt joint. The sensor has good recognition ability even for welding process with very large current disturbance, e.g. pulsed arc and short circuit welding process, etc. The proposed technique is developed on the basis of modern digital filtering theory and mathematic transformation of the signals from time domain into frequency domain.展开更多
