摘要： A welding system includes a welding station having a weld station computer and a weld system in communication with the weld station computer. The weld system includes a supply of weld material, a welding device, and a weld supply motor assembly that moves the weld material to the welder device. The system further includes a weighting device operatively connected with the weld station computer to measure a weight of the supply of weld material and to communicate the weight of the supply of weld material to the weld station computer; and a sensor operatively connected with the weld supply motor assembly and the weld station computer so as to communicate the speed of the weld supply motor assembly to the weld station computer. The weld station computer is operatively connected to the weld supply motor assembly to control the speed of the motor assembly based on the weight data.

摘要： A welding system comprises a plurality of welders and a server. Each welder includes one or more processors and one or more sensors. The one or more sensors are configured to measure weld data. The weld data includes data related to one or more operating parameters of the welder that are configured to control an ongoing weld operation of the welder. The welding system comprises a server in communication with the one or more processors to receive the weld data. The server is configured to process the weld data and communicate the processed weld data to the one or more processors. If the weld data does not meet predetermined criteria, the one or more processors are configured to modify the ongoing weld operation of the welder.

摘要： A system for welding two pipes includes a first pipe clamp, a second pipe clamp, a weld torch, an inspection detector, a motor, one or more processors, and a grinder. The weld torch is configured to create a weld joint between the pipes at an interface region between the pipes. The inspection detector is configured to emit an inspection beam of radiation. The motor is operatively associated with the inspection detector to direct the inspection beam of radiation along the weld joint between the pipes. The one or more processors are operatively associated with the inspection detector to determine a profile of the weld joint between the pipes. The grinder is configured to grind at least a portion of the weld joint between the pipes based on the profile of the weld joint between the pipes.
