The VeriWeld-SE™ Weld Seam Monitor is designed in response to customer demands for continuous “real-time” feedback of machine performance and welder operation validation for new and existing coil joining welders. The goal of the VeriWeld-SE™ is to prevent costly weld breaks by identifying potential problems before the weld is released into the processing line. As a secondary benefit, the monitor also assists in identifying items on the machine, such as weld head bearing failure, secondary shunting, shear blade wear, and other preventative maintenance issues that should be addressed for optimal machine performance. Full integration is available for existing Taylor-Winfield and any other manufacturer’s welders.
Taylor-Winfield is a leader in providing coil joining welders for continuous production of steel since the inception of the industry. The VeriWeld-SE™ Weld Seam Monitor records, analyzes and stores machine operating and weld schedule parameters using customer defined preset variables to validate weld quality. The weld data is read at 2,000 samples per second and the results are archived within the system and transferable to MS Excel and “upper level” SPC and SQC systems. This technology was developed in Taylor-Winfield’s Research & Development Laboratory in collaboration with several major steel producers.
Taylor-Winfield Technologies, Inc. is dedicated to delivering advanced manufacturing technologies and process solutions that enable our customers to compete in today’s ever changing marketplace. By providing simple to complex metal joining and material handling systems for steel production with on-going field service and replacement parts support, Taylor-Winfield remains the company customer’s trust.
