With the rapid advancement of industrial automation, welding — one of the key manufacturing processes — is undergoing a transformation from traditional manual operations to intelligent and automated solutions. As a pioneer in intelligent welding technology, Weld Navigator® has independently developed a teaching-free laser seam tracking system, which has become a powerful tool for upgrading welding pro
With the global energy structure transitioning towards cleaner sources, LNG storage tanks, as core infrastructure, have manufacturing quality that directly affects transport safety and operational efficiency. However, the welding process of LNG tanks is extremely complex and demands exceptionally high seam quality. Traditional welding techniques rely heavily on manual operations and struggle to meet the stringent req
In the wave of global industrial automation, spiral pipes are widely used in industries such as oil, gas, and water supply. The quality of their welding is directly related to the safety and reliability of the pipeline. Traditional welding methods rely on manual operations, which are prone to weld misalignment and inconsistent quality, making it difficult to meet modern manufacturing demands for high precision and ef
In weld seam tracking systems, industrial cameras play a central role in capturing, processing, and feeding back weld seam position data. By utilizing high-speed, high-resolution image acquisition and real-time image processing powered by intelligent algorithms, industrial cameras act as the “eyes” of the tracking system. They can identify the weld seam position and shape in complex welding environments,
With the rapid development of industrial automation and intelligent manufacturing, welding quality has become a critical factor directly affecting product performance and lifespan in high-end manufacturing. To meet increasingly stringent requirements for welding precision, laser seam tracking sensors—capable of achieving 0.01mm-level precision positioning—have emerged as a core technology for efficient an
