Image Now Offers Support for ISO Documentation with its Smart Weld™ Digital Arc Stud Welding Equipment

Image Industries, Inc., a leader in stud welding, provides support for ISO documentation with a Quality Control Documentation feature on their revolutionary line of digital arc stud welding equipment—Smart Weld™. This new feature creates an excellent advantage for companies implementing ISO 9000-style programs by making quality control data management quick, efficient, and accurate.

Smart Weld's Quality Control Documentation feature serves as a reinforcement tool for maintaining quality control measures. By reporting information such as, date and time, weld tool used (1 through 4 option), mode used, weld parameters requested (time and current), and actual weld results (time, current, and voltage), users can determine whether quality standards are being consistently upheld with every weld. Statistical Process Control (SPC) limits can also be entered and reported by Smart Weld. An engineer determines optimal weld settings, then enters upper and lower SPC limits, which are based on real world variations. If the weld falls outside of these programmed limits, the Quality Control Documentation feature alerts the user with an error message.

Once the weld is complete, the user has the option to print out a documented report of the weld parameters and evaluate the effectiveness of the weld. This information is output in ASCII format, usable by a wide variety of common peripherals, including printers, PCs, palm style devices, and other data storage devices connected to Smart Weld's dataport with a DB9 connector.
