Weld Informed: fascination welding!  ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌  If this newsletter isn't displayed correctly, click this link.   Weld Informed   Welducation Simulator     Dear readers, The welding industry is facing a problem: even companies whose primary task is welding are unable to escape the clear shortage of skilled workers in every area. With the Fronius Welducation Simulator, we are now setting new standards in training. The Welducation Simulator—the hot topic of this edition of Weld Informed—makes learning how to weld even more efficient, safer, and more sustainable. Take a look through the augmented reality glasses of our new welding simulator with us and see for yourself! Using the new Welducation Simulator, welders can learn, train, and consolidate their welding skills step-by-step under realistic conditions without any risk to safety and with no additional costs for materials, gases, or wear parts. You’ll find these and many other interesting facts in our latest press release. The overall didactic concept relies on a mix of virtual training, the teaching of theoretical content via the Welducation Campus, and a range of curricula and courses that can be selected based on individual need. Visit our website for more details. The sheer forces and corresponding risk factors associated with welding can act as a deterrent to potential young welders. This month, our new blog article shows how welding simulators can create a safe yet fun environment in which to learn. Thanks to the use of AR technology and real welding torches, the experience is more realistic than ever. You can see what this looks like in detail in our new product video. In addition to excellent welder training, the high degree of user-friendliness in all of our products is just one of the ways in which we are addressing the shortage of skilled workers. Harald Langeder, Global Director Research & Development at Fronius Perfect Welding, explains in an interview why we are focusing on this aspect in particular as a way of boosting efficiency. We hope you enjoy this latest issue! Your Fronius Weld Informed Team   Learning to weld made easy   Virtual training with the new Welducation Simulator is the perfect instrument with which to simulate complex processes and tricky situations in a risk-free and cost-effective way, and to repeat them time and again without wasting resources. Thanks to these exercises, beginners can improve their welding skills in a safe environment and learn directly from their mistakes, perfectly preparing them for welding on a real seam.   Click here to read the press release! Step by step to a professional level     Trainees can use the Welducation Simulator to practice all three process variants (manual arc welding, MIG/MAG, and TIG). Extensive analysis options help trainees to improve their technique and identify mistakes by letting them continually track their progress. Welds can be recorded and replayed at any time via the Welducation Campus, meaning the trainee’s own welding performance can be closely analyzed.   For all the information you need, please visit our website! A pinch of modernity for training   The trend is unmistakable: the number of welders is decreasing, while industrial and manufacturing firms have been noticing a declining interest in welding among young people for years. Well-trained welding professionals are among the most in-demand vocational groups worldwide, making them a rare commodity. Welding simulators can provide a remedy here, as they speak to a sense of modernity in the industry and can thus improve the image of the profession.   Read all about it in our blog now! More realistic than ever   Augmented reality, original welding torches, and the housing of a real welding system create a stunningly realistic welding experience. At the heart of the lifelike representation are the brand-new virtual glasses, which cause the simulated welding sequence to magically appear in the real-life environment.   Click here to watch the video! Answers to the skills shortage   Fronius Perfect Welding has been in the midst of a dynamic growth process for years. One factor that eventually limits the continuous demand for new specialists is the available pool of workers on the market. “If I can shorten the training time and then use easy-to-operate welding systems, which have a short learning curve, then I am still productive and efficient as a company, even if there are still a few open vacancies,” says Harald Langeder with conviction.   Curious?
