Cleveland – Lincoln Electric® introduces innovations in virtual reality arc welding simulators, VRTEX®. The products provide a powerful, cutting-edge solution for cultivating welding talent quickly and resourcefully.

Exclusive to the Lincoln Electric, the VRTEX® now offers a dual user option. This lowers the cost per student and creates a more effective use of the training budget dollars. In addition, the product line includes a full immersion VR headset. The user is fully immersed in the environment, allowing for realistic views and sounds.
