摘要： A system for torch maintenance includes: at least one sensor configured to monitor one or more conditions of a welding torch; and control circuitry configured to: receive feedback corresponding to the one or more conditions from the at least one sensor; determine that the feedback received from the at least one sensor violates one or more thresholds; and command the system to prepare for torch maintenance when the feedback violates the one or more thresholds.

摘要： An system for maintenance of consumables of a welding torch includes: one or more sensors configured to monitor one or more conditions of one or more consumables of the welding torch; and control circuitry configured to: receive feedback corresponding to the one or more conditions of the one or more consumables from the one or more sensors; compare the feedback to one or more thresholds corresponding to the one or more conditions; and command the system to perform a cleaning operation on the one or more consumables based on the comparison.

摘要： An example wire feeder includes: a frame; a receptacle configured to transfer welding-type current to a welding torch via a torch connector, and to position the torch connector to receive a wire electrode; one or more drive rolls configured to drive the wire electrode to the welding torch, the one or more drive rolls being electrically insulated from the frame, and wherein the wire electrode is electrically insulated from the frame; and a sensor configured to determine at least one of a voltage or an impedance between a first point electrically coupled to the wire electrode and a reference point.
