Alongside the associated Welducation Campus platform, the Welducation Simulator offers trainees and trainers a complete teaching concept consisting of theoretical content and virtual training units with the simulator.
The combination of theory and virtual training lets training participants consolidate their knowledge while also developing their practical skills. They can apply the concepts they have learned on the spot in the simulation, try out different welding techniques, and see the effects they have on the virtual workpiece.
Using AR technology, actual welding torches, and the housing of a real welding system creates a real-world welding simulation. Training participants also practice preparing for the actual welding process and the tasks between welding on the new simulator (checking the gas supply, attaching return lead cables, setting welding parameters, removing slag, etc.).
The safety risk due to the hot arc, UV radiation, and welding fume is significantly higher for beginners during welding than in other professions. Virtual training completely eliminates this risk.
The Welducation Simulator enables resource-conserving training by saving expensive consumables such as materials for workpieces, wire, and shielding gas. In addition to protecting the environment, this also cuts costs.
Trainees can use the Welducation Simulator to practice all three process variants (manual arc welding, MIG/MAG, and TIG).
Extensive weld analysis options help training participants improve their technique and identify mistakes by letting them continually track their progress. Welding can be recorded and replayed at any time via the Welducation Campus, meaning the trainee’s own welding performance can be closely analyzed against the optimal target.
Each welding task requires different techniques and manual skills, so learning different welding positions is an essential part of welding training.
Participants can train with a wide variety of workpieces, which they can attach in various positions on the stand included in the scope of supply. A large stand is also available to provide even more variation. Whether an overhead fillet weld or a single-V butt weld, participants can train on nearly any welding position.
The Welducation Simulator provides a fast way of training skilled workers by combining practical training units with theoretical content on the Welducation Campus platform.
This carefully designed training system takes the pressure off especially in times of skills shortages. Trainees can acquire knowledge and skills on their own with the help of theoretical content and prepared courses rather than requiring continual guidance from trainers.
The course overview on the Campus platform offers trainers a summary of trainees’ performance. They can see how many times the participants have practiced welding in the virtual space and whether the individual processes were successfully completed or not.
