WDL II - Weld Data Logger

WDL II™ Weld Data Logger

  • The Weld Data Logger represents leading edge technology in arc welding data collection and logging. The micro-controller based weld data acquisition system provides a means of mearing and documenting all basic welding parameters when used with external IBM compatible printer or PC.
  • The WDL II has the unique ability to calculate heat input using the optional travel speed transducer or the actual weld length and accumulated arc time. The WDL II is the lightweight portable tool that will enable you to establish and maintain qualified welding procedures.
  • The new "Windows 95/98/NT" compatible WeldLog™ Plus software provides a mechanism that permits additional data storage and further analysis of collected data.
BENEFITS
  • Chance of error in recording data eliminated
  • Easily transportable between plants or shop locations (ideal for inspectors)
  • Instantaneous viewing of current welding conditions (ideal for inspectors)
  • Permits extended data logging without need for printer at location (ideal for inspectors)
  • Ability to collect and display run time welding data using IBM or compatible PC and optional ADMSTAT software
  • Ability to generate hard copy at job site or back at office location ideal for inspectors)

MODES OF OPERATION

  • Data Logging: Welding parameter data can be dumped to an external printer for hard copy printout and fault analysis or to a compatible personal computer using ADMSTAT software for data storage and analysis.
  • Mean and standard deviation for each parameter
  • Graphic analysis for single and multiple weld data files
