Xiris SeamMonitor camera-based system monitors weld alignment in GTAW tube mills

Xiris Automation has introduced the new SeamMonitor, a camera-based, real-time measurement tool that monitors the alignment of torch tip to weld seam, as well as weld seam size, on GTAW tube mills.

The HDR camera captures the torch, weld arc, and surrounding environment. The system provides warning and error alerts on key measurements to operators or external equipment for process control. It includes data analysis tools and onscreen graphing of key measurements that can be sent to external equipment using OPC, analog, or digital interfaces.
