Using weld cameras in a classroom has many benefits for students, instructors, and administrators by providing high dynamic range images with a clear view of the weld arc, torch tip as well as the darker surrounding features such as the weld pool and seam. Weld cameras will enhance your classroom training, making them indispensable tools for teaching welding techniques.
Rather than always having to crowd around the instructors, with weld cameras, students are able to clearly see all features of the weld process, providing a better weld instruction experience, without the instructor having to restart or repeat the welding process should the student have missed some portion of the instruction.
“By displaying the captured welding video on a remote screen, the instructors can vastly improve the learning experience of their students, with improved learning success, which is always the instructors’ goal”. – Chris Manning, Chair of Welding Programs at Northern Alberta Institute of Technology (NAIT)
Not only do welding instructors achieve their goal of improving the learning success, they also don’t have to worry about classroom space and students’ proximity to weld demos.
Having each lesson recorded also gives students the ability to repeatedly view and learn from those demos, and enables instructors to keep an on-going source of recorded material to avoid constantly recreating lessons.
Administrators experience benefits from the use of weld cameras in classrooms as well. This technology eliminates space constraints in weld training booths and allows instructors to teach more students, faster. Weld cameras can also enhance the program’s reputation, which attracts even more students to the school.
