본 연구에서는 플라즈마 감시에 의한 용접성 평가방식과 효율적인 감시 알고리즘을 위한 시뮬레이션 툴의 개발을 목표로 한다. 레이저 용접 시 발생하는 플라즈마를 검출하기 위하여 플라즈마에서 발생하는 자외선신호를 반도체 광 센서를 사용하여 검출하고, 감시장치로 쓰이는 개인용 컴퓨터에 고속으로 전달, 저장하는 장치와 전달된 신호를 이용하여 용접 결함을 검출하는 모니터링 시스템을 개발하였다. 이 장치를 사용하여 용접 데이터베이스를 구축하고, 용접성과 플라즈마 신호와의 관계를 평가하고, 분석하였으며 특히 용접 결함 검출 모니터링에 적합한 특징의 선택, 결정을 위한 특징의 수, 분류기 사이의 비교 등을 위하여 오프라인 상태에서 시스템 구현에 적합한 특징의 선택, 결정을 위한 특징의 수, 분류기 사이의 비교 등을 비교 분석할 수 있는 시뮬레이션 툴의 개발과 이를 실제 시스템에 구현하는 방식을 취하였다. 목표로 하고 있는 시스템은 신뢰성 있고 효율적인 레이저 용접 결함 감시 시스템이며 이의 구현을 위해 용접 품질 모니터링 프로그램 중 분류기와 GUI을 구현하였으며 Perceptron, Wavelet, MLP 등을 적용하여 이의 결과가 실제 실시간 품질 해석에 적합한 데이터로 사용할 수 있는가에 대한 분석도 행하였다.

In resistance spot weld, the assurance of weld quality has been a long-standing problem. Since the weld nuggets if resustance spot welding form between the workpieces, visual detection of defects in usually impossible. Welding quality of resistance spot welding can be verified by non destructive and destructive inspections such as X-Ray inspection and testing of weld strength. But these tests, in addition to being time-consuming and costly, can entail risks due to sampling basis. The purpose of this study is the development of the monitoring system based on fuzzy inference, aimed at diagonosis of quality in resistance spot welding. The fuzzy inference system consists of fuzzy input variables, fuzzy membership functions and fuzzy rules. For inferring the welding quality(strength), the experimental data of the spot welding were acquired in various welding conditions with the monitoring system designed. Some fuzzy input variables-maximum, slop and difference values of electrode movement signals-were extracted from the experimental data. It was confirmed that the fuzzy inference values of strength have a .${\pm}$5% error in comparison with actual values for the selected welding conditions(9-10.5KA, 10-14 cycle, 250-300 $kg_f$). This monitoring system can be useful in improving the quality assurance and reliability of the resistance spot welding process.

This paper introduces an effective system design method to develop a customer oriented product using a design optimization process and to select a set of critical design paramenters,. The process results in the development of a successful product satisfying customer needs and reducing development risk. The proposed scheme adopted a five step QFD(Quality Function Deployment) in order to extract design parameters from customer needs and evaluated their priority using risk factors for extracted design parameters. In this process we determine critical design parameters and allocate them to subsystem designers. Subsequently design engineers develop and test the product based on these parameters. These design parameters capture the characteristics of customer needs in terms of performance cost and schedule in the process of QFD, The subsequent risk management task ensures the minimum risk approach in the presence of design parameter uncertainty. An application of this approach was demonstrated in the development of weld quality monitoring system. Dominant design parameters affect linearity characteristics of weld defect feature vectors. Therefore it simplifies the algorithm for adopting pattern classification of feature vectors and improves the accuracy of recognition rate of weld defect and the real time response of the defect detection in the performance. Additionally the development cost decreases by using DSP board for low speed because of reducing CPU's load adopting algorithm in classifying weld defects. It also reduces the cost by using the single sensor to measure weld defects. Furthermore the synergy effect derived from the critical design parameters improves the detection rate of weld defects by 15% when compared with the implementation using the non-critical design parameters. It also result in 30% saving in development cost./ The overall results are close to 95% customer level showing the effectiveness of the proposed development approach.
