Setting assistance device and setting assistance method
In a setting assistance device for assisting setting of a welding condition, an input receiving unit receives a new welding condition that is specified, and a reliability output unit outputs a degree of appropriateness of the new welding condition relative to a plurality of well-tested welding conditions, which are welding conditions that have been used in the past and well-tested, in response to reception of the new welding condition by the input receiving unit.
1. A setting assistance device for assisting setting of a welding condition, comprising:
a receiving unit that receives a new welding condition that is specified; and
an output unit that outputs, to a display unit, a degree of appropriateness of the new welding condition relative to a plurality of well-tested welding conditions, which are welding conditions that have been used in the past and well-tested, in response to reception of the new welding condition by the receiving unit,
wherein the output unit outputs the degree of appropriateness in accordance with a degree of remoteness of the new welding condition from a measure of central tendency of the plurality of well-tested welding conditions, and
wherein the degree of remoteness is a Mahalanobis distance between the measure of central tendency of the plurality of well-tested welding conditions and the new welding condition.
2. A setting assistance device for assisting setting of a welding condition, comprising:
a receiving unit that receives a new welding condition that is specified; and
an output unit that outputs, to a display unit, a degree of appropriateness of the new welding condition relative to a plurality of well-tested welding conditions, which are welding conditions that have been used in the past and well-tested, in response to reception of the new welding condition by the receiving unit,
wherein the output unit divides welding conditions into a plurality of ranges on the basis of the plurality of well-tested welding conditions and sets the degree of appropriateness for each of the ranges, and the output unit outputs the degree of appropriateness set for one of the plurality of ranges that includes the new welding condition.
3. The setting assistance device according to claim 2 ,
wherein the plurality of ranges are determined in accordance with a weighted sum of a plurality of items included in each of the plurality of well-tested welding conditions.
4. The setting assistance device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the receiving unit further receives attribute information related to at least one of a welding material, a welding device, and a workpiece, and
wherein the output unit outputs the degree of appropriateness in accordance with the attribute information.
5. A setting assistance method for assisting setting of a welding condition, comprising:
receiving a new welding condition that is specified; and
outputting a degree of appropriateness of the new welding condition relative to a plurality of well-tested welding conditions, which are welding conditions that have been used in the past and well-tested, in response to reception of the new welding condition
wherein the outputting of the degree of appropriateness occurs in accordance with a degree of remoteness of the new welding condition from a measure of central tendency of the plurality of well-tested welding conditions, and
wherein the degree of remoteness is a Mahalanobis distance between the measure of central tendency of the plurality of well-tested welding conditions and the new welding condition.
6. A setting assistance method for assisting setting of a welding condition, comprising:
receiving a new welding condition that is specified; and
outputting a degree of appropriateness of the new welding condition relative to a plurality of well-tested welding conditions, which are welding conditions that have been used in the past and well-tested, in response to reception of the new welding condition,
wherein, during the outputting, welding conditions are output into a plurality of ranges on the basis of the plurality of well-tested welding conditions, the degree of appropriateness is set for each of the ranges, and the degree of appropriateness is set for one of the plurality of ranges that includes the new welding condition.
