Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device (1) for simulating an electrode welding process having an electrode holder simulator (2) and a simulated electrode (3) arranged thereon, a simulated workpiece (4), an input device (6), an output device (7) and a control device (10). For the ideal training of an electrode welding process under conditions as real as possible, the control device (10) is connected to a memory (11) for storing parameters (Pi) of an ideal motion of the electrode holder simulator (2) during an ignition process and is designed for detecting the parameters (Pr) during an actual motion of the electrode holder simulator (2) and comparing them to the stored parameters (Pi) of the ideal motion of the electrode holder simulator during an ignition process and displaying the deviations between the parameters (Pr) of the actual motion and the parameters (Pi) of the ideal motion in the output device (7).

Abstract: The invention relates to a device (1) and a method for simulating a welding process. The device comprises a computer (2) having an input device (11) and an output device (6), a welding torch (3), a magnetic position monitoring device having at least one transmitter and a plurality of sensors, a retaining device (15) for a workpiece (4) used for the simulation and a visualization device (16) for generating a two- or three-dimensional image on the output device (6). The retaining device (15) has a recess into which the workpiece (4) can be inserted, at least one transmitter of the position monitoring device being arranged below the recess at as small a distance from the workpiece as possible, and the retaining device (15) being designed as a small, portable box to be placed on a table (10).
