The SeamMonitorTM System includes a high dynamic range (HDR) camera system, con gurable optics that can be adjusted to suit most welding environments, an Industrial Panel HMI controller for image recording, processing and display, and image processing software for monitoring all details of the welding process, and optional features such as a Light Tower/ Buzzer to warn the operator of failure conditions or errors. The results of the system’s measurements can be used to control external equipment through a set of analog outputs which is also mirrored on the system display, or via a light tower.
By using the Xiris SeamMonitor, operators can obtain seam alignment and other simple weld inspections as well as having a clear image of the weld arc and its immediate environment to allow for weld process monitoring and ongoing adjustments to the weld process.
