C-LUM™ Weld Intelligence
See what the welder sees. Capture what happened. Improve training, quality, and traceability.
Developed through real-world industrial applications in Japan, C-LUM combines first-person welding video with synchronized process data to help training centers, fabricators, contractors, and QA/QC teams review welding performance with greater clarity.

Visibility Gap
Instructors and supervisors cannot always see what the welder sees. The arc, noise, and other coditions make coaching difficult.
Knowledge Gap
Welding technique is difficult to explain, transfer, and standardize. Slight differences in execution (travel speed, angle, arc length) lead to large quality gaps.
Documentation Gap
Quality issues are often reviewed after the work is already complete. Without process data, it is difficult to understand why a weld passed or failed, or what to change.
Capture. Learn. Understand. Measure.

How C-LUM Works
Camera Unit
Captures the welder’s point of view. Utilizes unique image compositing technology to capture the center of the arc and pool in real-time.
IF Unit
Records current, voltage, and temperature data. Shares data via Bluetooth to the control unit and mobile application.
Software
Displays live monitoring, records data, and supports review. Replay videos on the monitor or export via USB and review later.
Cloud
Review live and historic welding data remotely. Supports training review, documentation, and future analytics.
