Lincoln Electric has recently developed a virtual welding system that is said to have a different approach to teaching basic welding techniques.
The VRTEX 360 is a VRAW (virtual reality arc welding) training system where welding students are offered a virtual hands-on training experience.
The virtual welding system feeds computer-generated data with a virtual welding gun and helmet equipped with internal monitors. The system is said to be comparable to video games as it provides a similar real-time welding technique feedback.
