Want to see through heat and blinding brightness to the core of your welding process?
Handheld wireless weld inspection system SERVO-ROBOT has
launched WiKi-SCAN, a unique handheld laser-based welding inspection system. To inspect the part, the inspector simply holds the system up to the unwelded or welded joint and presses the trigger to take measurements and determine if there are any defects present. The WiKi-SCAN
Success for ‘Welding World’ THE AWD (Association of Welding Distribution) Welding World™ Village was a resounding success and brought another dimension to MACH 2012. With 27 welding and cutting equipment, consumables, safety and gas suppliers in one area, visitors found it easy to find the products and companies they were seeking. With more than 20,000 visitors overall and the Thursday attendance 23 per cent up on 2010, AWD members were delighted about the quality of enquiries being received. Visitors also agreed how useful it was to have all aspects of welding represented in one zone. MACH 2012 proved extremely successful for all exhibitors and it is hoped that many will return in 2014 to produce an even bigger and better Welding World™ Village. allows inspection of joint preparations, joint fit-up, weld bead profiles and weld defects. It accurately measures critical parameters such as face and root openings or gaps, mismatch and bevel angle. Results can be automatically compared to the tolerances set and provide GO/NO-GO feedback. Furthermore, a permanent record of the weld measurements, voice and written comments and pictures of the weld are stored in the WiKi-SCAN and can be sent to your computer. Advantages of the WiKi-SCAN include less redundant inspection, fewer unneeded repairs, reduced inspection time and cost saving. Servo-Robot – USA Email: info@servorobot.com Website: www.wiki-scan.com
