Intelligent Welding of Materials

As welding technology improves, industry is incorporating more types of automatic welding equipment. One of the most important approaches being used is called intelligent automation for welding technology. This approach combines automatic welding equipment, the knowledge of human experts , and Artificial Intelligence (AI). An intelligent welding machine is the one equipped with sensors, artificial intelligence and actuators to sense and control welding operations in real time. Developing smart or intelligent welding machines can reduce the occurrence of defects in welds. Intelligent welder is differentiated from a mere mechanised or pre-programmed welder in that it controls the quality of the weld directly rather than simply maintaining the welding parameters within specified limits of the values based on experience and/or trial welds.
