Portugal has digitized more than 50% of welding training throughout the country. To this end, they have acquire 108 Soldamatic welding simulators. With this investment, Portugal is at the forefront in the digitization of welding training.

GSI SLV Nord in Germany has opened a new training center for welders based on the Augmented Training methodology. Thus, the students carry out the practices in Augmented Reality, acquiring the necessary skills and abilities to move on to a real welding workshop.

Adecco has chosen Soldamatic for welders training and qualification. Welder is one of the most demanded profiles with very difficult coverage due to the shortage of qualified personnel in this specialty. This initiative is part of the Adecco School program, which aims to attract and train profiles with very low unemployment rates, allowing unemployed people to enter to the labour market and helping companies to incorporate high demand profiles.

In March 2021, Chungnam Mechanical Technical High School in Daejon (S. Korea) acquired a full Augmented Lab with 11 units of Soldamatic. These systems have been used for over a year, to train both new students and second year students. As a result, the school is not only able to deliver a high quality training with increased success rates among the students, but also is saving a considerable amount of money in materials and consumables. The course is more attractive, helping to recruit new students that would have not paid attention to such a major. Overall, the school and the new welders are fully satisfied with the acquisition and were happy to collaborate in the shooting of the video.

Seabery has successfully managed to be present as a sponsor in “The First Virtual Simulation Competition”, framed in the 10th “Arc Cup” International Welding Competition of the 2022 Belt and Road and BRICS Skills Development and Technology Innovation Competition. Seabery provided 10 Soldamatic welding simulators to the organization to develop the virtual welding competition, which took place between November 19 and 20, after offering training to the 120 contestants, coming from different companies and national institutes.

German Chancellor, Olaf Scholz, visited “Learning Factory Industry 4.0” at ABB in Berlin. The Chairman of ABB’s Board of Directors, Peter Voser, and Sami Atiya, President of ABB’s Robotics & Discrete Automation Business Area, inaugurated the centerpiece of the new building, with cutting-edge training facilities that prepare trainees for the digital future of manufacturing. There they could see how hundreds of apprentices are being trained with Soldamatic, the most advanced and efficient digital training solution for welding, based on augmented reality technology and using real components.
