Abstract:

Column-field-welding robots are generally used in disarranged circumstance of the building site and have to be transferred horizontally and/or vertically within the site. Column-to-column welding joints are full penetration single bevel grooves, which require a high level of welding techniques and need an operation software with huge data. Under these strict conditions, welding works by the robots should be considered as " a manmachine system" which means the cooperation of man and robot. In consequence, it is important, on one hand, to develop welding robot on both software and hardware, on the other hand, to improve circumstance for welding robots to create high degree of efficiency. As a result, high quality at lower cost will be realized.

Keywords: column-field-welding robot, full penetration single bevel grooves, man-machine system
