| WireTrak™
Wire Speed Sensor |
- The
WireTrak™ - the new product from Computer
Weld Technology, Inc. for making your welding environment
more efficient. By providing the necessary data acquisition;
signal processing and communications firmware, the WireTrak™
allows remote logging of your wire utilization and actual
productivity rates.
- The
WireTrak™ is designed for monitoring and
telemonitoring service purposes and is based on an embedded
micro-controller.

“Impact
your wire cost with the WireTrak™” |
|
- The
Optional WireLog Plus™ software
offers the ability to program, download data and communicate
with multiple WireTrak™ units.
- The
sensor is simple to install at the GMAW wire drive motor
inlet using industry standard quick disconnect conduit fittings.
The sensor may also be remotely mounted using a industry
standard conduit assembly and the optional mounting bracket.
- A
series of display screens are provided to allow the operator
or supervisor access to wire feed speed run data and to
program the sensor for operation.
- NetHub™
is an isolated RS-485 communications driver and power supply
to connect up to six WireTrak™ Sensors to
the MODBUS™ RTU network. A total of 247 sensors may
be connected to the network using multiple NetHub™
units.
