allowing it to be bent. If the weld passes the visual
inspection, the user can move proceed with the bend
test. If a weld fails the bend test, the details such as a
percentage of failure will be displayed in the informa-
tion box on the right side of the screen. The weld fail-
ure is measured in three different aspects including
Lack of Fusion, Porosity, and Slag Inclusion. If the
