Evolution Vision Welding Helmet for your Ultimate Personal Protection - Check out the new YouTube Tutorials

As a Product Manager for PPE & Accessories and an Industrial Designer, it is my job to actively drive the development process of new products while at the same time giving them a distinctive look. The expectation for the Evolution Vision was to give the product a unique Böhler Welding look which incorporates the existing design elements of the Guardian welding helmet and wraps them in a modern, sporty look.

The design process, however, is just a small part in the overall development process. The aim was to develop a functional welding/grinding combination that offers the welder optimum protection before, during and after welding. Low weight, a large visor and a good fit on the head were just as important as the technical specifications of the ADF itself. All of this required regular, if not too frequent,  alignments with the parties and engineers involved, as well as several iterations of prototypes until a functioning welding helmet was able to be created.  There  are no shortcuts.In addition to the True Colour Technology and the highest display clarity (UHD and 1/1/1/1), I would say the automatic mode is the most important feature along with being the newest in our welding helmet portfolio.  This feature allows the ADF to detect the arc amperage and automatically adjusts the required shade level.
