Abstract
Peculiarities of application of the adaptive algorithm of neuron networks in resistance spot welding control systems based on microcontroller are considered. To simplify the required calculations at preset accuracy of control, the neuron network with input process parameters in relative units is suggested.
Keywords: resistance spot welding, nugget diameter, weld spot, microcontroller, neuron network, adaptation, algorithm
