Direct Energy Deposition (DED) using wire fused by multiple laser beams is becoming a more widely adopted Additive Manufacturing process among integrators and OEMs. Each entity tailors its process control to optimize results. The August Video of the Month showcases the impressive Meltio process being used by one of those companies in action, captured by a Xiris Automation weld camera. In certain conditions, the camera's images can be analyzed to extract thermal data about the build and melt pool, potentially enhancing overall process control. 💡 Subscribe to our Welding Video of the Month! 💡 https://bit.ly/4dE1FFb 👈

Deep Learning is Transforming Weld Penetration Monitoring 🚀 Welding is at the heart of manufacturing, but ensuring the perfect weld every time is no easy feat. Traditional methods rely on indirect data, making it hard to see what's really happening with the melt pool and weld penetration. AI (Artificial Intelligence) techniques can be employed to enhance the quality of the segmentation of the scene for better data extraction. 💡Check out the blog now ⏩ https://bit.ly/3ZTVrwM

🚀 Check out our September Video of the Month. This video offers a unique perspective on wire-added GTAW deep groove welding, capturing the interaction between the tungsten electrode and the filler wire. The new Xiris Automation XVC-310 Lipstick Camera, with its compact design, provides optimal positioning for observing and controlling wire placement. The camera clearly visualizes the melt pool's progression through the narrow gap of this multi-pass weld, enabling precise process control.

📊 Check out this example of how melt pool morphology data can be used for process control to recognize and avoid potential defects in welding. Key features like the pool's size, shape, and orientation play a vital role in controlling the welding process. For instance, when there’s a lack of shielding gas, the melt pool may exhibit perturbations. ⚠️ In the image, you can see a normal melt pool (top left) compared to one that's been affected by a lack of shielding gas (top right). The segmented melt pool orientation chart (bottom) clearly identifies this issue, highlighting how changes in appearance correlate with variations in parameters. 📊 By detecting these shifts in real time, operators can intervene quickly, preventing defects and ensuring high-quality welds. ✅ Understanding melt pool behavior not only enhances quality control but also supports more efficient welding practices. 🔧 Download our white paper: Why Melt Pool Analysis is Important for Automated Welding. 📄 https://hubs.la/Q02QR5bg0
