Definition of "welding power characteristics"

36
Welding power characteristics are created from a family of characteristics
assigned to several parameters. In case of spot welding, these parameters are
total material thickness, welding current, set point energy, welding time and
choke effect (time constant for current slope-up and time constant for current
slope-down). A "Point" is defined as the synergic parameters that are regis-
tered and saved for one power value. Up to 20 points can be saved without
prescribed order for creating a characteristic.
The computer computes and indicates the intermediate values between two
points from a line equation. The parameters of a characteristic for those
power values being before the point of the lowest and/or behind the point of
the maximum power value are predicted by the computer from the initial or
final straight line. Of course, these parameters are displayed, too
