SYSTEM FOR WELDING TRAINING WITH DISPLAY, TRAINING WORKPIECE WITH TRANSPARENT WELD JOINT AND TRAINING TORCH WITH SENSOR

摘要

A system (10) for welding training is described. In one example, a welding training system (10) includes a display (26) configured to show welding features related to a training welding operation. The system (10) also includes a training workpiece (42) having a substantially transparent weld joint configured to be placed adjacent to the display (26) during the training welding operation. The system (10) includes a processing device (22) coupled to the display (26) and configured to provide welding data relating to the training welding operation to the display (26). The system (10) also includes a training torch (12) comprising an optical sensor (18). The training torch (12) is coupled to the processing device (22) and configured to provide the processing device (22) with data from the optical sensor (18) corresponding to a position of the training torch (12) relative to the training workpiece (42).
