MUMBAI, India, Jan. 9 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202521118549 A) filed by Dr. Vishwanath Karad Mit World Peace University, Pune, Maharashtra, on Nov. 28, 2025, for 'a sagacious autonomous tungsten inert gas (satig) welding apparatus.'
Inventor(s) include Rajesh Vinayak Patil.
The application for the patent was published on Jan. 9, under issue no. 02/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention discloses a sagacious autonomous tungsten inert gas (SATIG) welding apparatus (100) includes a base and frame (102) for supporting welding operations, a welding torch holder (104) mounted on the frame, and a filler rod holder (106) also mounted on the frame. The filler rod holder (106) accommodates filler rods of varying diameters and angles and deposits a predetermined length of filler rod during welding. A motor-controlled belt pulley mechanism (108) is operatively coupled to both the welding torch holder and the filler rod holder. Roller wheels cooperate with the belt pulley mechanism (108) to control unidirectional movement of the welding torch holder and filler rod holder. During operation, the apparatus (100) performs autonomous welding with integrated defect detection and classification using a real-time image capturing system. The system enables precise filler rod deposition, consistent torch movement, and intelligent monitoring, making it suitable for high-integrity welding applications across industrial domains such as automotive, aerospace, and shipbuilding."
