Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention relates to a welding teaching system, which is formed by a six degrees of freedom platform or Stewart Platform on which the welding gun carrying the electrode is placed. The Stewart Platform is connected to communication means and automatized movements as well as processing means which allow the recording of the experimented welder's movement in order to reproduce them for a welder trainee who is in a training stage. The objective of the present invention is providing a system for teaching how to weld, composed by a Stewart Platform, a welding gun, at least a sensor, an interlace, a processor, a memory, a controller and actuators. The present invention also comprises methods for capturing the movements of an experienced welder in order to teach how to weld a welder trainee in the training stage.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A system for teaching how to weld which allows training experienced welders in a shod amount of time CHARACTERIZED in that said system comprises: a base ( 2 ) from which six actuators ( 3 ) emerge which allow an upper platform ( 4 ) to be moved in six degrees of freedom; wherein from said base ( 2 ) a fixed bench ( 5 ) having a surface ( 6 ) on which a plate to be welded is mounted, emerges; wherein said upper platform ( 4 ) has an adaptor ( 7 ) on which a welding gun having a handle (…
