ESAB Welding & Cutting Products has introduced the first-ever Smart Phone application for welding. Available for use with IPhone, Blackberry, and Android devices, the ESAB Welding Parameters Set-up Guide is a user-friendly application that helps welders quickly identify the correct parameters for a specific job.
The user simply enters the metal to be welded and the filler metals, and the application determines the appropriate settings for the welding machine.
"This takes the traditional set-up guides we already had in use to the next level," says ESAB North America President Andrew Masterman. "At ESAB, we are always looking for ways to help welders be more productive and produce better quality welds. As more welders have begun to adopt new mobile technologies, it seemed natural to repackage this useful information into a mobile format."
