The purpose of this study is to monitor the welder performanceWelder performances during the FCAWFlux-Cored Arc Welding (FCAW) process, which applies different electrode movements compared with shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) as previously explored. The inertia measurementMeasurement units (IMU) sensors were used to capture the wrist-hand motions of a welder, and the support vector machine (SVMSupport Vector Machine (SVM)) method was used to evaluate the welder's performance while welding.
