机器人焊接智能化技术实验室

  The Intelligentized Robotic Welding Technology Laboratory of Shanghai Jiao Tong University was established by Professor Chen Shanben in March 2000, and has accumulated a series of academic and technical bases in the research work of intelligentized robotic welding and intelligentized welding manufacturing technology and its system realization led by Professor Chen Shanben since the 1990s.

Developed artificial intelligence technology to simulate the observation, judgment and operation behavior of welders, research on key technologies such as automatic identification of welding environment, intelligent control of welding pool based on visual information in local environment, computer vision, knowledge modeling, fuzzy neural network and intelligent control are successfully used to solve the problem of dynamic process control of pulse TIG welding under various typical process conditions, formed a series of inovative result: based on welding environment visual information recognition, pool dynamic shape and two-dimensional, 3D characteristics of visual computing, welding dynamic process of visual, arc sound，spectral and multi-information acquisition and fusion technology, build neural network deep learning algorithm of welding quality prediction model, welding dynamic process fuzzy neural network controller design, with time delay of neural network compensation and self-learning control, using fuzzy identification and rough set theory knowledge modeling of welding process of uncertain objects; Basic research results of intelligent robotic welding science and technology for multi-information fusion prediction and compensation control method of aluminum alloy GTAW welding air hole defects.

Research on the key technology of local autonomous and intelligent welding robot system, and integrated developed the initial welding environment perception of autonomous recognition and guidance, weld recognition and independent planning, track correction and tracking, welding melt pool visual sensing and feature extraction, process expert system guidance, penetration. Developed and manufactured an intelligent in welding flexible manufacturing cell (IWFMC) with 9 freedom degrees, a Local Autonomous Intelligent Welding Robot (LAIWR) system with 7 freedom degrees and visual serving and real-time feedback intelligent controller for welding dynamic process, and full-position autonomous welding robot with wheel-foot combination cross-barrier (APAWR). A series of innovative results have been obtained in the key technology research and system development of intelligent and autonomous welding robot.
