Features
Read full description

The PLASSON-SmartFuse app captures quality relevant data during the preparation of PE / PP pipes for the electro fusion welding process. The BARCODE function decodes and shows the contents of barcodes conform to ISO12176-3 (fusion operator badge), ISO12176-4 (traceability code), ASTM F2897 (component code) and ISO13950 (fitting welding barcode). The WELDING function captures data during the preparation of the welding process following a pre-determined profile, e.g. job code, joint code, photos of quality relevant steps, GPS-data, system barcodes etc. Welding parameters will be transmitted via bluetooth connection (BLE) to compatible electro fusion controllers (processors) and the welding process will be started. The welding process data can be monitored within the range of the bluetooth connection. After the welding process is finished the device log in transmitted to the Smartphone and added to the captured data. After uploading to the server database the data can be reviewed on the EFCC-WepApp (ElectroFusion Control Center) by a limited group of people.

PASCHAL AR allows you to place PASCHAL scaffolding and formwork solutions in an augmented reality environment; thus enabling better safety, and a more optimal use of PASCHAL material. It also allows you to perform guided inspections of scaffolding on-site. On devices with LiDAR, the inspection automatically detects correct and incorrect scaffold material. You must receive a scaffolding or formwork solution .paschal or .txt-file from PASCHAL, and open it in this AR app, and visualize it in the environment you want.
