Abstract
Welding quality of a welding section W welded by laser welding is determined by acquiring an image of the welding section W and its surrounding region by means of a high-speed camera 11, analyzing, as parameters, the number of spatters P per unit length and the area of a high-luminance region in the acquired image by means of an analyzer 12, and comparing the analyzed parameters with respective comparison tables created beforehand, to determine the welding quality of the welding section Wa. Information on the welding quality of the welding section W is displayed on a monitor 13. Not only the laser welding quality of the welding section can be determined but also in-process shearing strength prediction as well as in-process fracture mode prediction can be performed, thus enabling quality control matching high-speed and high-precision laser welding.
