Notes:
Outlines the need for the development of a top-face sensor systemto ensure consistent penetration during mechanized arc and laser welding.Lists the characteristics such a system should incorporate and describescurrent sensor systems which might be adapted. These include ultrasonictechniques, acoustic emission techniques, weld pool sag sensing techniques,weld pool oscillation sensing, weld pool viewing techniques, and thermalsensing techniques. Gives the range of application and accuracy of control ofthe reported systems and concludes that there is currently no one system,commercially available, which satisfies all the requirements of the idealsystem.
