Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2010115524A1] The present invention relates to a method (500) for monitoring and/or regulating the quality of spot welds of a resistance welding gun (100), wherein the method comprises a step of measuring and storing measured values (220, 230) during the execution of resistance spot welds at different points on a workpiece. The measured values (220, 230) represent a voltage, a current, a resistance, a welding time, an energy, a force on welding contacts and/or an output during the production of a resistance spot weld. Furthermore, the method comprises a step of comparing the measured values (220, 230) with a reference measurement value (200), wherein the reference measurement value (200) represents a corresponding voltage, a current, a resistance, a welding time, an energy, a force on welding contacts and/or an output during the production of a corresponding resistance spot weld. Finally, the method comprises a step of outputting a warning message (250) when, during the comparison step, it is established that a predetermined number of successive measured values (230) is outside a predefined tolerance band (210) from the reference measurement value (200).
