Abstract
The invention relate to a system, for example a welding system, for running a welding process or related process, having at least one wirelessly communicating component with a transmitter and/or receiver system. At least one mounting unit (28) is provided in the various components of the system, in particular the welding system, which can be fitted with a communication module (29) and at least one connecting mechanism of the mounting unit (28) is connected to an internal data transmission system (32) of the system, in particular the welding system. At least one mounting unit (28) is equipped with a communication module (29) in order to run a signal and/or data transmission.
Claims29
A system for running a welding, soldering or torch-cutting process, which has at least one component which communicates wirelessly by means of at least one transmitter or receiver system with at least one transmitter or receiver system of another component of the system, wherein at least one component and the other component comprises a mounting unit, each transmitter or receiver system being contained in a communication module replaceably mounted in the mounting unit for inserting or changing the communication module, and the mounting unit has at least one connecting mechanism for connection to an internal transmission system or a power source of the system.
A method of welding, soldering or torch-cutting, comprising wirelessly transmitting signals from a least one component of a system for running a welding, soldering or torch-cutting process to at least one other component of the system by means of a transmitter or receiver systems, wherein the at least one component and the at least one other component are replaceably mounted on a respective mounting unit, each mounting unit is connected by means of a connecting mechanism to an internal data transmission system, and at least one communication module is inserted in each mounting unit, whereafter a signal or data transmission is run via the transmitter or receiver system of a communication module in one of the mounting units to the communication module in the other mounting unit.
