As well as getting to grips with the welding torch, users can also learn how to handle filler metal. The TIG function package is available for new Virtual Welding systems as standard and as an upgrade kit for existing devices.
The package contains a special TIG welding torch and a separate sensor, which helps teach the user how to apply the optimum amount of filler metal. A total of 10 training and simulation tasks are available. Here, joining the package’s existing models for the execution of fillet welds, single-V butt welds, pipe/pipe and pipe/plate joints, and melt runs, comes the ability to perform 3 mm thick square butt welds.
