I did some work in a place that did just that - 30 years ago. They were welding hemispherical caps on the ends of 1/16 diameter tubes. The operators controlled the holders for the tubes and the caps as well as the electrode and the wire by watching it on a 13 inch b&w crt screen. They were in a separate room from where the welding was going on
