Description
Provisional welding apparatus The present invention relates to a tack welding device, and more specifically, to a tack welding device in which the supply of a workpiece and tack welding are performed automatically. Welding is a method of joining two solid materials by forming direct atomic bonds between them, and it is widely used to join metal materials. Generally, a welding device performs welding work along a welding line using a welding torch or the like while the workpiece is secured by being placed on a fixing jig that holds the workpiece. To this end, conventionally, a worker proceeded with preliminary preparations for welding by directly placing one workpiece onto a fixed jig and securing it to the jig through bolting, and then directly placing another workpiece onto the fixed jig and securing it to the jig again through bolting. In addition, even after the welding was completed, the welding process was carried out in a manner where the worker manually released the bolts on the welds and directly retrieved the welds. Accordingly, conventionally, since the worker must place and bolt each welding target onto a fixed jig, there is a problem of increased work time due to prior preparation for welding and retrieval of the completed weld. In addition, since workers must manually secure each welding target, there are issues such as reduced reliability of product production due to the mixing of welding targets, low work efficiency resulting from increased working time, and increased costs. To address these issues, a system has been developed that automatically transports workpieces using a transport robot and a welding robot to perform welding; however, there is still a problem where the quality deteriorates due to misalignment between workpieces during the transport and automatic welding processes. In addition, conventional tack welding devices perform uniform welding automatically, so they have the problem of low versatility as they cannot perform welding on objects of various sizes and shapes. In addition, conventional tack welding devices have a problem in that precise alignment and contact are not achieved during the tack welding process, and consequently, inspection is not performed, leading to a significant deterioration in the quality of the main weld when alignment is off.
