Lincoln Electric VRTEX 360+ Dual User K4602-1 is a virtual reality welding training simulator for teaching and reviewing welding setup and technique with two students working independently on one machine.
Key Features and Benefits
- Virtual weld-puddle visuals and welding sounds provide feedback as technique changes.
- Tracks work angle, travel angle, travel speed, distance and position for instructor review.
- Demo, Replay and Lesson modes help review a simulated weld.
- Virtual bend-test feedback supports discussing why a simulated weld passes or fails.
- Dual stands support two learners independently using different processes and welding procedures.
