Why Use Virtual Reality? | Lincoln Electric

Innovation

The VRTEX™ 360 is built upon the technology of the VRSim Simwelder™ and represents the next generation of VR Welding training.

The VRTEX™ 360 is a VRAW™ (Virtual Reality Arc Welding) training solution. The combination of realistic puddle simulation and arc welding sound tied to the welder’s movement provides a realistic hands-on training experience.

The VRTEX™ 360 is capable of simulating multiple arc welding processes on a wide variety of weld joint configurations.

Performance
