Welding processes and technologies have been undergoing a tremendous change over the past few years. Industries like automotive already get most of the work done through robots and automated machinery. However, industries like ship building, heavy equipment production, small parts fabrication, etc. still extensively use manual welding processes. In either of these cases training of welders, upskilling and reskilling of the workforce is significant both for the industry as well as the employees.

Even though training is crucial to every industry and manufacturing company, not every organisation invests in welder training due to high costs. This is where Virtual Reality (VR) can be used as a training tool. Through virtual welding training using simulators, organisations can improve the effectiveness of welding training.

Virtual welding training has also greatly impacted the role of welding trainers and the way welding training is imparted. In this is article, we will explore the importance of virtual welding training, how it can be integrated in blended learning strategy, evolving role of welding trainers and improved welding training.

Here’s how Virtual Welding can be a part of the blended learning strategy – https://nationalskillsnetwork.in/heres-how-virtual-welding-can-be-a-part-of-the-blended-learning-strategy/

Whether you are a student, a trainer, a training partner, or a skill training institute, all of us have been forced to shift to a digital and blended model of learning in no time. Welding, which was always considered to be a physically demanding job, has also become virtual in training new entrants and upskilling the existing workforce. Beginners and new entrants into the welding field can learn and practice various welding processes in virtual environments that replicate real-life situations. Read more…

This creates more opportunities to train welders in standardized formats”, says Mr. Umesh Jagtap, Sr. Application Engineer – Tech Support National, Fronius India. Read more…

The evolving role of welding trainers – Part 2 – https://nationalskillsnetwork.in/the-evolving-role-of-welding-trainers-part-2/

“Welding trainers need to understand the advanced technologies thoroughly. They should know its advantages, disadvantages, application, and safety concerns. Various companies are currently using advanced technologies to meet the quality criteria and increase productivity. However, in academic institutions, we are still using basic and conventional equipment”, says Mr. Sushil Kumar Joshi, Application Engineer – Tech Support National, Fronius India. Read more…

Virtual welding training helps the students to learn and gain insights in welding and helps them become accurate welders, by learning the skill sustainably, saving the environment and resources. The virtual welding trainer also supports the trainee by showing them the ideal welding speed and position using color signals and other tools. This makes welding trainer’s job easier and welding training more effective and efficient.
