Einfach starten with a sensor on a machine. Growing through a platform-based approach across your entire production operation.

The trust of leading industrial partners.

Joining technology · Laser processes · Coating · Additive manufacturing - serving sectors ranging from automotive OEMs and cladding system manufacturers to the aerospace industry.

Why Process Monitoring

Four perspectives that make process monitoring a business necessity

Cost perspective

Errors caught during the process are a hundred times less costly than those discovered at the customer stage. The 1-10-100 rule makes process monitoring an economic necessity.

Verifiability

Verify rather than extrapolate: for every unit produced. Spot checks indicate probabilities; process monitoring provides data.

Future Perspektive

Today’s data foundation determines tomorrow’s eligibility for tenders, serving as the basis for AI integration, brand protection, and ESG reporting under the CSRD.

Safety

Safety represents the chain linking the process to the end customer. Any question regarding liability can be answered using documented process data.

Goals of Process Monitoring

What process monitoring achieves in day-to-day manufacturing

Three operational service areas that PROMOS covers simultaneously:

Detecting welding and production defects without loss of cycle time

Detecting defects early

Measurement takes place in parallel with production, rather than as a pre- or post-production inspection.

Detect process drift before it incurs costs.

Thermal drift, parameter deviations, and wear on sensors or optics become apparent before they lead to rejects or line stoppages.

Avoid waste, don't just reduce it.

Producing economically

Early error detection prevents units from passing through production only to be found unsuitable for shipment later.

Deploying resources effectively

Raw materials, energy, machine time, and testing capacity are focused on value creation rather than downstream correction.

99.8% traceability for every workpiece

Work verifiably

Every single unit is documented and traceable via its complete process history.

Reproducible rather than dependent on daily form

The assessment follows a defined, transparent set of rules, not the daily form of a specialist.

What weldmetrix does differently

Three differences compared to conventional process monitoring

Many manufacturers today rely on isolated monitoring tools, one software application per machine, one data silo per vendor, and no overview of the entire production operation. PROMOS changes this, whether you are starting with a single machine or looking to integrate your entire production process.

PLATFORM PRINCIPLE

A layer over your existing system, not a new stack.

PROMOS works with the laser sources, welding power sources, and systems already present in your production facility: TRUMPF, LASERLINE, IPG, COHERENT. The sensor technology integrates with existing infrastructure rather than replacing it.

Existing investments become a data source, not an obstacle.

CORRELATION LOGIC

Multiple signal sources instead of a single sensor

Conventional sensor-based monitoring focuses on a single aspect. PROMOS correlates data from its own sensors, third-party sensors, and the system itself to generate an assessment for each component; no single sensor can detect every class of fault.

An OK/NOK decision per unit, based on multiple data sources.

AUDITABILITY

Documentation per component, not per batch

Conventional process monitoring records system logs. PROMOS documents data for each unit produced:nin a structured, audit-proof, and retrievable manner. Every wafer, every weld seam, and every component receives its own continuous record.
