Welding Process(es)

Welding process(es) is/are listed on the aplicable WPS; i.e. GTAW, GMAW, FCAW, GMAW-CRO, RSW, LBW, etc.

WPS

WPS number being used for the welding

Type

GTAW = manual; GMAW = semi-automatic; GMAW-CRO = automatic, RSW and LBW = machine

Backing

if backing is used, list whether it is base metal, left-in-lplace backing strip, removable backing strip, etc. If no backing is used, indicate "None".

Plate or Pipe

What is being welded

Position

What position is being welded in? See figures at bottom of this worksheet

Volts (V)

These readings come directly from the welding machine and are entered for each weld pass.

Amps (A)

These readings come directly from the welding machine and are entered for each weld pass.

Wire Feed Rate

Currrently GMAW and GMAW-CRO only! These readings come directly from the welding machine wire feeder.

Travel Speed (est)

Time welding operation for one minute and measure inches per minute for the Travel Speed.

Weld Progression

Either uphill or downhill; each weld pass may be different if WPS states.

interpass cleaning?

Did the welder clean, grind, or wire brush between passes?

Filler Metal

List the Manufacturer, Alloy, Diameter, amnd SFA No. of the filler metal being used.

Current / Polarity

AC or DC; Electrode Negative or Positive.

Shielding Gas

Record the Shielding gas number, the mixture, and the flow rate in CFH when used.

Backing Gas

Record the Backing gas number, the mixture, and the flow rate in CFH when used.

Trailing Gas

Record the Trailinggas number, the mixture, and the flow rate in CFH when used.

Base Metal(s)

Record the Material Specification of the base Metal(s).

Coupon DIA / THK

If Plate, list the thickness; if Pipe, list the Diameter and wall thickness.
