<p>Apparatus (10) for determining a quality of a weld produced by a welding device (12) according to the present invention may comprise a sensor (16, 18, or 20) operatively associated with the welding device (12) for sensing at least one welding process parameter during a welding process and for producing a welding process parameter signal related to the welding process parameter. A computer (26) connected to the sensor (16, 18, or 20) and responsive to the welding process parameter signal produced by the sensor (16, 18, or 20) compares the welding process parameter signal with a baseline parameter and produces an output signal (40) indicative of whether the welding process parameter signal is compliant with the baseline parameter.</p> |
