<p>A method and apparatus for calibrating a welding-type power supply and a robot are disclosed. They include entering a calibration mode (in the welding-type power supply) and providing one or two predetermined commands (for a welding parameter) from the robot to the welding-type power supply, and comparing them to two standards. A command scaling curve for the parameter is calculated in response to the comparisons. Predetermined commands, relating to two or more different welding parameters, may be used to calibrate two or more parameters, and to create two or more command scaling curves. Parameters that are calibrated include wire feed speed, voltage and arc length (trim). Feedback from the welding-type power supply may be provided to the robot that is indicative of a commanded output. The predetermined commands may alternatively be user-determined, or provided by a user interface or a memory. <IMAGE></p> |
