The invention relates to a method of transmitting data between and/or synchronising at least two welding devices (1, 27) or current sources or with another component and another device, which are supplied with energy via a supply network (35), whereby the functions of the welding process are controlled and/or regulated by means of a control system (4, 30) of the welding device (1, 27). The data, signals and welding parameters or synchronisation signals to be transmitted from a welding device (1, 27) or a welding current source or another component and another device, in particular by a processor, a PLC controller, a data module or a computer, etc., are converted by means of a communication unit (36, 37) into a data protocol which is then modulated by a communication unit (36, 37), in particular a modulation module (42, 43), across the supply network (35). The modulated data protocol is demodulated and processed by means of the preferably integrated communication unit (36, 37), in particular by means of a demodulation module (44, 45), of another welding device (1, 27) or a current source or another component or another device, and another data exchange, in particular a two-way data transfer, is optionally run.

What is claimed is: 1. Method of transmitting data between a welding device and another welding device which comprises controlling a welding process by means of a control system, supplying an arc with energy from a current source and striking the arc between a workpiece and a welding torch, supplying the welding device with power via a supply network, whereby the data is transmitted between the welding devices, transmitting the data, signals and welding parameters or synchronisation signals for one of the welding devices via a first communication unit across the supply network, whereupon the transmitted data, signals and welding parameters or synchronisation signals are read from the supply network by the other welding device and processed by means of a second communication unit and another data exchange is optionally run, and generating a synchronization signal by the one welding device at specific instants of the welding process so that the control system synchronizes control of the welding process on the basis of the synchronization signal. 2. Method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the data, signals and welding parameters or synchronisation signals of a welding process are manually entered in a control unit and are transmitted across the supply network to the other welding device. 3. Method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the data, signals or welding parameters or synchronisation signals are compiled in a data comprising a plurality of bits in the form of a high-frequency signal. 4. Method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the transmitted data, signals or welding parameters or synchronisation signals are continuously monitored by means of the second communication unit co-operating with the welding devices. 5. Method as claimed in claim 1, wherein a control signal is sent at the the transmission of the data, signals or welding parameters or synchronisation signals. 6. Method as claimed in claim 1, wherein in the protocol to be transmitted, a code is sent initially, after which appropriate control commands and data for the desired welding parameters are transmitted to at least one of the welding devices and a control system identified by the code. 7. Method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the data, signals and welding parameters or synchronisation signals of a control sequence are forwarded to the control system of the welding device via the supply network in order to control the other welding device. 8. Method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the time delay caused by the data transfer is determined by an adjustment process between the welding devices and the control systems after which the welding process is controlled so as to start and be run simultaneously. 9. Method as claimed in claim 1, wherein one of the welding devices is defined as the master device and at least one other welding device is synchronised with or timed to it via the supply network.
