Active Visual Sensor Based Weld Seam Tracking for Underwater Wet Welding

Abstract:

Weld automation is the development trend of underwater welding, and underwater weld seam tracking is one of the key technologies in weld automation. This paper used active visual sensor to automatically monitor the weld seam in underwater wet weld process, and image processing algorithms were developed to automatically obtain the weld torch deviation, then the weld torch was adjusted automatically according to the deviation obtained by the image, experiment results showed that this method could be used in underwater wet welding.
