NEW BRITAIN, CT (May 21, 2007) Â VRSim, Inc. has announced therelease of the SimWelder SMAW (Shielded Metal Arc Welding) Module. SimWelder(www.simwelder.com) is a cost effective, stand-alone appliance that helps trainbetter welders faster. By giving students more weld passes and giving instructorsobjective feedback, SimWelder augments traditional welding training.
Using SimWelder, students enter an interactive virtual environment that mergescomputer-generated data with physical props. By simulating the welding process, nometal is consumed, and no waste is created. Students get more passes, instructorsget better data, and companies save money.
The SMAW Module follows the release of the GMAW (Gas Metal Arc Welding) Module andis the second welding module in the series for SimWelder. This module simulatesthe SMAW welding process, from properly setting up the equipment to welding with astick, realistic sound and slag included.
The SMAW Module includes a SMAW device with retracting rod that mimics the burn offof the stick.  The stick device adds a critical third dimension for the trainee, noted Matthew Wallace, President and CEO.  Not only must a welder get travel speedand angles correct, now he or she has to compensate for the burn off rate of thestick. This proprietary technology was developed from the bottom up by VRSim.
The SMAW Module is being used at the U.S. Army Ordnance Mechanical MaintenanceSchool at Aberdeen Proving Grounds, Maryland. The SimWelder SMAW Module version hasbeen featured at Edison Welding InstituteÂ's (EWI's) 2007 Technology Conference(Materials Joining: Building for the Manufacturing Future) and received a greatresponse.
The SMAW Module can be purchased as a stand-alone unit or in combination with theGMAW Module.
