发明名称 IN-PROCESS WELD GEOMETRY METHODS & SYSTEMS
摘要 In-process weld geometry methods and systems are discussed, enabled, and provided. Some embodiments include in-process welding devices to compensate for error associated with detected weld penetration depth. Exemplary devices can generally include an ultrasonic energy source, an ultrasonic receiving sensor, and a controller. The ultrasonic energy source can be disposed to generate ultrasonic energy through a first specimen being welded to a second specimen. A weld seam can be used to join the first specimen to the second specimen. The ultrasonic sensor can be disposed on an opposite side of the weld seam from the ultrasonic energy source, and configured to detect ultrasonic energy propagated from the first specimen side of the weld seam to the second specimen side of the weld seam. The controller can be disposed to receive data from the ultrasonic sensor, configured to determine time of flight signal data corresponding to arrival of the ultrasonic energy detected by the ultrasonic sensor, and configured to compare the determined time of flight signal data to a model to compute error associated with the determined time of flight signal data due to a dynamic welding environment. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are claimed and described.
