In this paper, a position control scheme of the ink droplet is presented for the high image quality and print speed ink jet printer. The proposed scheme estimates the impact position and compensates it by control of the jet strobe time based on the dynamic equations describing the moving trajectory of the ejected ink droplet. Compared to the conventional jet strobe control which is based on the simple synchronization with the position signal of the ink jet nozzle, the proposed control scheme provides more accurate impact position control while the carrier is moving with accelerated or decelerated speed as well as steady state speed with fluctuations. The availability of printing during the acceleration and deceleration states of the carrier moving enables the print speed up and the frame size down which means the cost down.

Thick-shell welding for super-sized oil storage tanks is currently done manually, which causes deterioration in quality and a lack of uniformity due to frequent rewelding. The limitations of the external environment must also be considered for manual welding. This paper describes the development of a carriage system for automatic vertical welding to increase reliability, reduce cost, and enhance productivity. The system consists of a welding platform, carriage device, and control unit, which were conceptually designed according to design specifications and manufactured with modular parts. In addition, the structure was analyzed for safety and to predict design problems in advance, and the results are reflected in reviewing the design. To evaluate the performance of the system, a tensile test, bending test, and weld time test were carried out, and the results were satisfactory. The time required for automatic weld was greatly improved by more than 87%, compared to the manual welding time.

자동차 운반용 선박(PCTC) 건조 시, 자동차를 고정시키기 위해 약 5 만 여개의 Lashing Socket(6,700 Units PCTC 기준)이 소요되는데, 이때 사용되는 Lashing Socket 은 용도 및 형태에 따라 Hole Cup, Flush Cloverleaf Type Pot, Raised Cloverleaf Type Pot, D-Ring, Crinkle Bar 등으로 구분된다. 이와 같이 다양한 종류 중에서 Hole cup 타입이 전체 적용되는 Lashing Socket 의 약 80%에 이른다. 기존에 사용되고 있는 자동용접장치는 Hole Cup 이외에는 적용이 불가능하고, 자석을 이용하여 Hole Cup 의 상부에 위치시키는 방식이었기 때문에 경량화 및 다양한 종류 및 크기의 Lashing Socket 에 적용이 가능한 자동용접장비의 개발이 요구되었다. 본 연구에서는 두께가 다른 $\phi$140 Hole Cup 및 Flush Cloverleaf Type Pot, Raised Cloverleaf Type Pot 에 적용 가능하며, 분리형 용접캐리지와 Centering Template, Magnet Jig 로 구성된 연속 및 단속 용접이 가능한 자동용접장치를 연구 개발하였다. 이를 통해 종래 Hole Cup 전용 자동용접 캐리지의 문제점을 개선하여, 작업자가 Centering Template 과 Magnetic Jig 을 이용하여 캐리지를 Hole Cup 의 중앙에 위치시키기 용이하게 하였다. 이 같은 분리형 장치 구성을 통해 Hole Cup 중앙에 캐리지 고정 작업과 용접 작업을 분리함으로써 자동용접이 진행되는 도중에 여분의 Jig를 이용하여 다른 Hole Cup 에 용접 준비를 하여 연속적인 작업이 가능하도록 하였다. 본 연구는 종래의 Hole Cup 전용 자동용접 캐리지의 문제점을 개선한 분리형 용접 캐리지를 개발함으로써 아래와 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 용접 캐리지를 포함하여 각 부분별 분리를 통해 작업자가 1 회 이동 시 필요로 하는 중량을 감소시켜 장비의 이동 및 제어가 쉽다. 2. Magnetic Jig 를 Centering Template 에 결합하고, Template 의 Jig 를 Lashing Socket 에 결합함으로써 손쉽게 Lashing Socket 의 중심부를 찾을 수 있으므로 용접 캐리지의 정확한 센터 고정이 가능하다. 3. 엔코더에 의한 1 회전을 검출함으로써, 작업 종료 후, 어떤 위치에서나 작업 재개가 가능하며 원점 복귀 작업이 불필요하다. 또한 엔코더에 의한 거리 설정으로 용접 속도에 상관없이 동일한 거리만큼 오버랩 용접이 가능하다. 4 디지털 방식으로 용접 조건의 입력이 가능하고, 용접 조건을 D/B 화 함으로써 Control Panel 상에서의 자동 제어가 가능하다. 이를 통해 연속 용접 또는 단속 용접이 가능하므로 다양한 형태의 Lashing Socket 을 자동 용접할 수 있는 효과가 있다. 이상의 결과를 통해 본 장비가 Fig.2 의 3 가지 종류의 Lashing Socket 용접에 효과적인 장비임을 확인할 수 있었다.

In this paper, the dynamic characteristic analysis of carriage structure supported by air bearings were performed. Toward this end, the characteristics of air bearing were numerically analyzed to estimate the stiffness of the air bearing and the clearance between air bearing and guide surface. The modal analysis of the carriage structure was performed by using finite element method, and the experimental modal analysis was also performed to validate the finite element model, where rigid body modes were compared to validate the stiffness of the air bearings. From the results, the air spring stiffness can be estimated within the range of acceptable accuracy under any pressure and clearance condition.

Semi automatic welding method to use carriage for welding at large size block manufacture welding process of present shipbuilding industry is used much. Carriage is device that transfer welding torch in horizontal fillet weld here, but because it is no function that chase welding like robot welding method, use can be impossible in curved line welding, and simply use in straight line welding. Also, because it is no function that chase welding, though welding mistake corrects this happening often in straight line welding, much times and expense are cost. Added welding chase sensor and 80C196KC microcontroller that use strain gauge to carriage that is using present in paper that see hereupon and manufacture a private line model and container box model welding because developing system that can chase welding automatically straight line and curved line welding establishing and investigate about chase phenomenon.

In these days, welding is the most commonly used metallic connection technology and also is the fundamental production technology of the modem industrial, which is used in various areas of the industrial fields, such as shipbuilding, automobiles, airplanes and plant facilities. However welding process produces strong light, electric currents, and fume gases etc., and the welding automation is not so easy compared to the other works of manufacturing industries which produce the standardized products in large quantities. So it is difficult to weld and detect the all kinds of seams automatically by a specific sensor. In this paper the sensor applying strain gauges is used to detect the seams of triangular wave form. With the auto carriage having the sensor we proposed the experiment to weld and track the seam automatically.

Both ends of welding line are often closed by wall in the welding of ship blocks. In this research, seam tracking sensing system for butt welding in the condition with wall was developed. Seam tracking sensing system measures position of carriage from wall and detects root-pass of welding line. The system consists of the laser displacement sensors and ultrasonic sensors. The laser displacement sensor reciprocal1y rotates by the motor and measures a distance from laser sensor to the welding material. The ultrasonic sensor measures a distance between welding system and walls. The distance measured by the ultrasonic sensor is used to get X(driving) position and to determine initial and end point of the weld line. Y(weaving) and Z(height) of the weld line are obtained by the distance measured by the laser displacement sensor and the orientation of the sensor. The sensing system includes the controller that is independent from the welding carriage. The seam tracking sensing system is attached to both side of welding carriage so that interference between welding torch and sensing system can be avoided during the welding. And both side sensing system minimize dead zone. Finally, developed sensing system was adhered to welding carriage and verified usefulness by experiments.
