Operation of a Fuzzy Controlled Half-Bridge DC-Converter as a Welding Current-Source
Abstract: A new Fuzzy
controlled welding machine (FCWM) current source is introduced in this paper
and the results of the new control method are explained. The Fuzzy controller
is applied to the welding machine to improve some problems of welding process.
The new intelligent controller guaranties a constant current during welding to
improve welding quality. It also provides some features such as hot-start and
anti-stuck function and a standby mode for energy saving. The effectiveness of
this intelligent welding machine was proven by the experimental results and
durable test. The results show that
designed FCWM can be used in mobile welding industries.
