Lorch Connect Gateway App (LCG)

Lorch Connect Gateway App

CONNECT. WELD. SEE CLEARLY

The Lorch Connect Gateway App for an easy start-up of the Lorch Connect

Gateway.

The Lorch Connect Gateway acts as the interface between the user and the

welding system plus the Lorch Connect Portal.

All digital services of Lorch are available here.

The app enables the configuration and modification of network settings, in order

to connect the Lorch Connect Gateway with the Lorch Connect Portal.

In addition, the Lorch Connect Gateway can be paired to a Lorch Connect

account via the app.

It is possible to gather additional information about

each weld seam such as order number, part number, serial number, and WPS

number. In addition, process information such as wire diameter, material and

gas type can be added to the welds. On basis of this data the customer can later

carry out analyses and cost calculations according to his tasks.

Our digital services ata glance:

Online monitoring: Performance in numbers.

The dashboard represents the central feature of the Lorch Connect Portal. It

shows all key production indicators such as duty cycles, arc times or parameters

in a quick and easy-to-understand manner. This offers a straightforward and

convenient way for you to identify the productivity of all connected systems.

Cost controlling: Paying off in the end.

How profitable was an order or specific component? The answer to this question

is held by the cost controlling tool. This tool automatically adds up all

consumption figures and monetises them. The basis for the calculation is formed

by your individual master data and includes such information as the prices of

different welding wires and gases, the cost of energy and the labour costs

associated with your welders. The result is a calculation of profitability that is

comprehensive and dependable.

Documentation: All essential data in one location.

The Lorch Connect Gateway records each individual weld seam along with all

data that may be relevant to production and passes this information on

automatically to the Lorch Connect Portal. At this portal, all weld seams are

documented with their associated parameter values. The real-world advantage:

You can now draw important conclusions from such individual, process-defining

parameters as current and voltage and apply them to the quality of the seam or

the compliance with welding procedure specifications.
