To provide a welding tip management apparatus for suppressing lowering of a line operation rate.

On the basis of a car model data management table 20, a spot point setting table 21, and the present cumulative number of spot point after a tip dress, an estimate is made on the car model on which the number of spot point is reached as set in a table 23 for setting a tip dress starting spot point and on the car model before then. If the car model on which this number is reached is the one set in a table 22 for setting a tip dress starting car model, the tip dress is started at the time of welding of this car body; if the car model is not the one set in the table 22, the tip dress is started at the time of welding of the car body set in the table 22 that exists before the number of tip dress starting spot point is reached.
