Tracking

How it Works

The arc sensor constantly monitors arc conditions in the weld. If the software detects less than optimum weld settings, the main system controller is notified and automically corrects the welding conditions and position of the torch.

With the conventional method, the robot corrects the welding conditions based on the weaving position in the weld. When this happens, the welding current is automatically adjusted, based on the calculated distance. Our laser sensing methods adds additional precision and speed to this process.

Arc Sensing Methods

OTC offers 3 methods for seam tracking: Arc Sensor (AII-AR), TIG Arc Sensor (AII-TR) and Laser Tracking (AII-LT).
