Abstract: Described herein are examples of systems that include a welding machine and a welding screen assembly communicatively linked to the welding machine. The welding screen assembly may include an adjustable opacity dimming screen and a coupling component configured to detachably couple the adjustable opacity dimming screen to a handpiece of the welding machine, wherein the coupling component may enable adjustable positioning of the dimming screen in relation to the handpiece. The welding screen assembly may further include a light source positioned on a side of the assembly proximal to a weld site and a control system configured to adjust the opacity of the adjustable opacity dimming screen to block excessive light during welding.
