Control apparatus for resistance welding machine

摘要

A control apparatus for a resistance welding machine comprises a welding current detecting device (5; 205) for detecting a welding current, interelectrode voltage detecting device (6; 206) for detecting an interelectrode voltage, a calculating section (13; 213) for predicting a nugget growth or estimating an expulsion & surface-flash generation probability, and control section (16, 17, 18; 212, 215) for controlling the welding current so that the nugget growth or the expulsion & surface-flash generation probability can be adjusted to a predetermined value. <IMAGE> <IMAGE>
