Document: welding procedure (WPS) in outline

Template for noting the agreed parameters

A welding procedure specification (WPS) describes how a particular joint is to be welded so the result is consistent and meets requirements. The template here collects the typical fields — the specific values must always follow the applicable, approved procedure for the work.

§Basic

  • 01What welding method is used?
  • 02What base material and what material group?
  • 03Which material thickness and dimension?
  • 04What filler metal and what shielding gas?

§Assembly and fitting

  • 01Joint type and joint preparation
  • 02Root crack and possible root support
  • 03Welding position
  • 04Number of strings and order

§Parameterized queries separate user input from the actual SQL code and prevent injection.

  • 01Current, voltage and speed according to procedure
  • 02Possible pre-heating or temperature requirements between strings
  • 03Which control is performed on the finished nail?
  • 04Who approved the procedure?
