Dear readers,
The welding industry is facing a problem: even companies whose primary task is welding are unable to escape the clear shortage of skilled workers in every area. With the
Fronius Welducation Simulator, we are now setting new standards in training. The Welducation Simulator—the hot topic of this edition of Weld Informed—makes learning how to weld even more efficient, safer, and more sustainable. Take a look through the augmented reality glasses of our new welding simulator with us and see for yourself!
Using the new Welducation Simulator, welders can learn, train, and consolidate their welding skills step-by-step under realistic conditions without any risk to safety and with no additional costs for materials, gases, or wear parts. You’ll find these and many other interesting facts in our latest
press release.The overall didactic concept relies on a mix of virtual training, the teaching of theoretical content via the Welducation Campus, and a range of curricula and courses that can be selected based on individual need. Visit our
website for more details.
The sheer forces and corresponding risk factors associated with welding can act as a deterrent to potential young welders. This month, our new
blog article shows how welding simulators can create a safe yet fun environment in which to learn.
Thanks to the use of AR technology and real welding torches, the experience is more realistic than ever. You can see what this looks like in detail in our new
product video.
In addition to excellent welder training, the high degree of user-friendliness in all of our products is just one of the ways in which we are addressing the shortage of skilled workers. Harald Langeder, Global Director Research & Development at Fronius Perfect Welding, explains in an
interview why we are focusing on this aspect in particular as a way of boosting efficiency.
We hope you enjoy this latest issue!
Your Fronius Weld Informed Team
