Welding Sequence Optimizer

Welding Sequence Optimizer (WSO) is a pioneering digital toolset based on Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning algorithms that will help you minimize the inherent welding deformations.

 

It works in two ways:

  1. As standalone solution without the need of running FEA welding simulation ( Included in all versions).

  2. Acting as a plugin for commercial FEA welding simulation software. (CAE Version)

​

What is a Best Welding Sequence?

​As general definition, the best welding sequence is a proper order of placement and welding direction for each bead that minimizes an objective function such as deformations, residual stress, cycle time, robot collisions, etc.

Additional tools for CAE engineers

  • CAE results in HTML - stop making presentations

  • Thermal coefficients calculator

  • Simulations monitor - alarms by email, phone call, telegram. You can interact with a bot.

  • ​Heat source calculator

  • Graphs and plots to understand deformation.​

  • Project tracking tool - Gives you a report with the time spent on the simulations.

  • Software Dev tracking tool - helps you to keep your improvements requests organized

GD&T Assessment for CAE Results

CMM can be emulated by probing points on the deformed CAE model.

​

Our integration of Kotem Smart Profile. enables the evaluation of the blueprint GD&T characteristics. 

​

While running a Sequence Optiization you can select a key characteristic as objective function instead of total displacement.
