Welding

Workforce demands, government regulations, changing business practices, and increasing environmental awareness are driving the manufacturing environment to be quieter, cleaner, healthier, safer, and "friendlier" for workers. For the Welding industry, the implementation of Camera-based Weld Monitoring systems, especially for automatic welding cells, has become a necessity to address these issues while maintaining weld quality and production efficiency.

Automation systems used in the welding industry require some sort of remote weld monitor to be able to see the weld process, verify that the tip is in position and monitor that the welding process is performing well. Because automated welding processes are typically too congested or too dangerous to have an operator directly monitor the welding tip while under operation, a camera mounted at the welding tip allows the operator to view the welding process remotely.

Recent advances in camera technology includes Wide Dynamic Range cameras that can provide much higher quality welding images, including detail of the weld tip as well as the rest of the weld work environment. The result is the ability to improve weld quality, welding productivity, and health and safety of the welding process.
