CONNECTION BOX FOR A GAS TUNGSTEN ARC WELDING TRAINING SYSTEM, AND METHOD OF OPERATING A CONNECTION BOX OF A GAS TUNGSTEN ARC WELDING TRAINING SYSTEM

摘要

The present application relates to a connection box (600) for a gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) training system (100) is described. The connection box (600) of the GTAW training system (100) coordinates delivery of welding-type power to a GTAW torch during training. In some examples, a remote control (e.g., foot pedal) may be activated at different levels to command different levels of welding-type power be delivered to the GTAW torch from a welding-type power supply. In some examples, the connection box (600) selectively enables or disables communication between the remote control and welding-type power supply during training. In some examples, this selective enablement/disablement may be based on whether the GTAW training system is in a live-arc mode or simulation mode
