Abstract

To provide a spot welding system of high reliability which, when an abnormality such as a spot missing in spot welding occurs, is capable of more precisely and accurately detecting this immediately. Provided are a robot-side system having a robot and a robot-side control unit which controls driving of the robot; and a welder-side system having a welding gun mounted to the robot, and a welder-side control unit, in which the robot-side system includes: a storage unit which stores in advance appropriate thickness information of a welded part of members on which conducting spot welding; a welded-part thickness measurement unit which measures thickness of the welded part of members on which conducting spot welding; and a comparative determination unit which determines quality by comparing thicknesses of a welded part at the time of a welding start command and at the time of a welding completion command, and comparing with the appropriate thickness information of the welded part stored in the storage unit.
