Weld monitoring camera system shows SAW process

The iShot® Weld-i® from InterTest is a compact weld monitoring camera system (3.4 in. by 1.25 in. dia.) that can verify torch positions, wire feed orientation, and welding part alignment during the SAW process. The system uses a 1080p/30fps HDMI video signal with generated crosshairs on a full HD monitor to help ensure the operator that the automated and live SAW process is running to specifications.

The system comprises a Sony MA130 Micro HD camera, 16x optical zoom, image flip, image mirror, manual shutter/focus/zoom control, auto image stabilization, 13 megapixels still-frame picture capture, LED illumination, and crosshair line adjustment in the vertical and horizontal positions.

The welding camera system comes with a choice of 10-, 25-, and 50-ft. cable lengths with protective sheathing at the camera head end. The camera head uses spatter shields in front of the lens to protect the weld camera from any incidental spatter, smoke, or dirt from the environment.
