Apparatus and method for viewing molten pools in arc welding
An optical apparatus for use in viewing an arc welding process wherein the view is directly parallel to and around the electrode thus allowing the electrode tip to block the arc from direct view. The light seen is reflected from the mirror-like molten pool revealing the edge of the said pool which i...

Summary: | An optical apparatus for use in viewing an arc welding process wherein the view is directly parallel to and around the electrode thus allowing the electrode tip to block the arc from direct view. The light seen is reflected from the mirror-like molten pool revealing the edge of the said pool which is a parameter directly analyzed by video picture analysis to control an arc welding process. |
