Abstract
The present invention relates to a method of automatically assigning a single welding apparatus corresponding to a single robot, which is selected as a control object, in a welding robot system capable of controlling a plurality of robots and a plurality of welding apparatuses with a single control unit. The relations of correspondence between the robots and the welding apparatuses are first predetermined, and the predetermined relations of correspondence are stored in a memory of the control unit. When a single robot is designated through a teaching console panel for executing a given welding operation, the specific welding apparatus corresponding to the designated robot is automatically determined according to the relation of correspondence stored in the storage unit. As a result, the designated robot and the corresponding welding apparatus are started.
