A Virtual Journey in the Welding Universe
The dominant presence of Air Liquide, a global leader in gases, technologies, and services for industries and healthcare, does not go unnoticed at Intermach 2023, the International Fair of Technology, Machines, Equipment, and Services for the Metal-Mechanic Industry. The novelty? A Virtual Reality Welding Simulator that revolutionizes the way the Industrial Welding sector is explored. The stage for all this innovation is the city of Joinville (SC), from July 11 to 14.
The Evolution of the Welding Experience
Identifying a gap in the market, Air Liquide developed the simulator with a clear objective: to demonstrate the subtleties and peculiarities of gas applications in welding processes. Until now, available simulators mainly focused on showing the functioning of welding machines, neglecting the fundamental role of gases in these processes.
The Air Liquide Welding Simulator goes further, immersing users in a virtual reality environment reminiscent of the most modern video games. The innovative platform offers nine distinct exercises, covering all stages of welding. From preparation, setting the types and percentages of gases for each application, to the final welding stage, users can track and assess their own performance.

Premium Gases for Welding on Display
But Air Liquide does not stop there. The company will also take the opportunity to present its premium line of welding gases, ARCAL™. These high-purity gases, with precise mixtures and constant homogeneity, are based on argon and include different proportions of carbon dioxide (CO2) according to their intended use.
Applications range from welding stainless steels to high-speed robotic welding – typical of the automotive industry – and welds that require greater resistance. In full compliance with ISO 14175 and AWS A5.32M standards, these gases and mixtures are meticulously prepared to meet the highest performance standards.
In the end, Air Liquide’s commitment to innovation and quality is evident at Intermach 2023, not only raising the standard for the welding industry but also creating new pathways for the training and development of professionals in the field.
