Welding system parameter comparison system and method

Abstract:

An metal fabrication resource performance monitoring method includes: acquiring data representative of a plurality of parameters sampled during metal fabrication operations of a plurality of metal fabrication resources, the parameters comprising arc on time and wire deposition quantity; via at least one computer processor, analyzing a first subset of the acquired data and a second subset of the acquired data for the plurality of metal fabrication resources; via the at least one computer processor, populating a user viewable page with graphical indicia representative of at least the arc on time and the wire deposition quantity, the user viewable page facilitating a visual comparison of the analysis of the first subset of the acquired data and the analysis of the second subset of the acquired data; and transmitting the user viewable dashboard page to a user viewable display.
