Plate Welder
Plate Welder EPA
| KSB's | Knowledge, Skill or Behaviour |
|---|---|
| Dimensional and mechanical properties (strength, toughness, thermal expansion etc.) of materials to be welded. | K1: |
| Fundamentals of welding metallurgy (weld solidification and Heat Affected Zone) and how this can affect the weldability of materials and final joint integrity. | K2: |
| Common manual arc welding processes and the relative merits for a given application, including Manual Metal Arc (MMA),Metal Inert Gas (MIG), Metal Active Gas (MAG), Flux Cored Arc Welding (FCAW), Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG), Plasma Arc Welding (PAW) | K3: |
| Common joint types associated with welding plate and structural components (Fillet, Butt, T-Butt, Corner/Lap; Single-Sided, Double-Sided, Metallic Backed, Ceramic Backed). | K4: |
| Welding positions and progressions associated with plate and structural components and their international designations including Flat; Horizontal-Vertical; Horizontal; Vertical (upward and downward progressions); Overhead. | K5: |
| The major components of welding equipment, ancillary equipment, cabling and their assembly, including Power Source, Wire Feed System, TIG & PAW Arc Initiation Systems, interconnecting communications cables, torches, tongs, gas equipment etc. | K6: |
| Set, modify and monitor welding controls (e.g. Current, Arc Voltage, Wire Feed Speed, Gas Flow Rates, Polarity) and secondary controls (e.g. Heat Input, Interpass Temperature). | K7: |
| Welding Procedure Specification requirements, contents, and information derived to establish specific production information | K8: |
| The relative merits, applications and limitations of material preparation methods and manual material removal processes including powered and non‐powered tools. | K9: |
| Performance success factors in production, inspection reporting, productivity including time and duration, dimensional, Non-Destructive Examination, defect rates etc. | K10: |
| Causes and detection of typical welding defects and how their occurrence can be reduced. | K11: |
| Types and functions of welding consumables, fluxing systems and the requirement for correct identification, storage, conditioning, handling, recycling and disposal. | K12: |
| Requirements for correct storage, handling and segregation of materials and tooling to prevent cross contamination. | K13: |
| Organisational quality documentation, reporting systems, procedures and their role within the overall quality process | K14: |
| Continuous improvement processes, performance review and how this is undertaken within their organisation. | K15 |
| The importance of only using approved processes, procedures, documentation and the potential implications for the organisation if this is not followed. | K16: |
| Non-destructive testing reports and radiographs to identify particular defect types and the associated improvements to process and technique needed to prevent recurrence. | K17: |
| Risks and mitigation measures associated with welding and the working environment, and the organisational risk management processes | K18: |
| The importance of complying with statutory, quality, organisational and health, safety and environmental regulations. | K19: |
| Typical problems that may arise within their normal work activities/environment. | K20: |
| Work safely at all times, comply with health, safety and environmental legislation, regulations and organisational requirements | S1: |
| Can obtain, check and use appropriate documentation (such as job instructions, drawings, quality control documentation). | S2: |
| Plan and prepare welding activities before commencing the work. | S3: |
| Obtain, position and assemble welding equipment and associated safety protection needed for activity. | S4: |
| Prepare, check and protect materials and work areas ready for welding. | S5: |
| Inspect assembly to be welded and undertake remedial work to comply with specification, or implement quality steps if rejected. | S6: |
| Receive, inspect, condition and maintain consumables. | S7: |
| Set, test and monitor key welding parameters as detailed within the Welding Procedure Specification. | S8: |
| Deal promptly and effectively with problems within the limits of their responsibility using approved diagnostic methods and techniques and report those which cannot be resolved to the appropriate personnel. | S9: |
| Use manual processes and equipment to remove material (powered and non‐powered). | S10: |
| Achieves a quality of work to meet international standards e.g. ISO5817, ISO9606, ASME IX, AWS D1.1 for dimensional, surface inspection (e.g. Visual, Magnetic Particle, Dye Penetrant) and volumetric inspection (e.g. Radiography, Ultrasonic inspection). | S11: |
| Complete progressive and final checks on the weld prior to release for formal inspection and report into the production control system at the appropriate stages of the work activity. | S12: |
| Restore the work area on completion of the activity and where applicable return any resources and consumables to the appropriate location. | S13: |
| Produce welds in plate and/or structural components using two welding processes from TIG, PAW, MMA, MIG/MAG, FCAW. | S14: |
| Produce welds in plate and/or structural components using two materials from Carbon Steel, Low Alloy Steel, High Alloy Ferritic/Martensitic Steel, Austenitic Stainless Steel, Nickel & Nickel Alloys, Ali & Ali alloys, Ti & Ti Alloys, C & C Alloys. | S15: |
