Welding system and method for the transmission of information as well as for influencing parameters of a welding system

摘要

The invention relates to a welding system (1) having a current source (3) for producing the electrical energy for a welding process, and having a communication system (29) for producing a wireless communication connection between system components (2, 6). The communication system (29) has a first signal transmission device (30) for a transmission of reference data, which first signal transmission device (30) has a sending and/or a receiving device (31, 32) assigned to a stationary component (2) and a sending and/or a receiving device (31, 32) assigned to a portable component (6). According to the invention, the communication system (29) has an additional signal transmission device (33), particularly an RFID element, which has at least one identification means (34) arranged in a first sending and/or receiving device (36) of the stationary component (2), and one identifier (35) arranged in an additional sending and/or receiving device (37) of the portable component (6). The first sending and/or receiving device (36) assigned to the stationary component (2) forms within the range thereof a calling area (46) of which the spread is smaller than the range of the first signal transmission device (30).
