Welding Data Collection

Documentation and Analysis

All welding data at a glance

Document welding data reliably

Transparency and safety, but also productivity and time-saving: the requirements are high in welding production. The recording, documentation and analysis of welding data is therefore becoming increasingly important. This is because direct feedback from production helps to optimize processes, monitor system statuses and identify errors. The result: reliable, high-quality production.

The WeldCube analysis system offers the right solution for all requirements—from small businesses to large companies with a wide range of networked welding systems. This means that you get optimum support with your data documentation.

Advantages of data documentation

Save time and money

Automatic recording: No handwritten notes required
Assessments at the touch of a button
Early error detection
Central management of jobs

Increased safety in production

Traceability at component and seam level
Continuous documentation
Risks are minimized

Increase productivity

Identify potential optimizations
Each weld seam under observation
The system status at a glance

Quality assurance and transparency

Wherever welding is carried out, manufacturers and users expect perfect and demonstrable quality. Ultimately, stable and flawless weld seams are crucial to ensuring that safety and functionality criteria are met. A continuous quality assurance process is therefore essential in the majority of companies.

Safe and documented welding

EU Standard EN 1090 requires welding data documentation

Since 2014, load-bearing steel or aluminum structures may only still be sold if they comply with the EN 1090 series of standards.

The EU standard requires full documentation of the weld seams so that they can be consistently traced.

Documentation at component level

The component-level documentation enables weld seams to be assigned to a component and a welding system. This makes it possible to produce components with consistent traceability.

Preparing statistics

Statistics functions allow you to quickly and easily create and visualize useful analyses. This has many advantages for you, including helping you to optimize production processes.

Our example shows the highest error rate per day and welding system, analyzed using WeldCube Premium. Using these data, individual stages of production can be examined in further detail and improved as necessary.

Light

WeldCube Light is available in SmartManager in every TPS/i – at no additional cost. Averages for each weld seam are recorded directly in the welding system, visualized on a web basis for each TPS/i and provided as a PDF export.

Basic

For users who need actual values with a scanning rate of up to 100 ms, limit monitoring or editing functions for set values alongside the average values, WeldCube Basic is the ideal solution. Here, the data is also recorded directly in the welding system and visualized on a web basis. Both a PDF and a CSV export are available as part of this process.

Premium

WeldCube Premium saves the welding data of networked Fronius systems in a database. In addition to the TPS/i, you can also use other digital welding systems as well as DeltaSpot with WeldCube Premium. The central storage allows for comprehensive and component-oriented documentation, assessment and analysis of the data. Table-based and graphical assessments are available at the touch of a button.
