WPS and PQR Certification

Description

WPS and PQR Certification Services

Achieving these certifications is crucial for ensuring the quality and integrity of your welding processes, which in turn guarantees the safety and reliability of your projects.

What is WPS and PQR?

Welding Procedure Specification (WPS):

A WPS is a formal document describing welding procedures, which provides direction to the welder or welding operators for making sound and quality production welds as per the code requirements. It outlines variables such as materials, processes, joint designs, and techniques to ensure consistency and compliance.

Procedure Qualification Record (PQR):

A PQR is a record of the welding data used to weld a test coupon. It documents the actual welding parameters and conditions used during the procedure qualification test. The PQR verifies that the WPS can produce welds with acceptable mechanical properties.

Criteria for WPS and PQR Certification

Achieving WPS and PQR certification requires meeting several criteria:

  1. Material Specifications:
  •    Base metals to be welded
  •    Filler metals to be used
  1. Welding Process:
  •    Specific processes (e.g., SMAW, GMAW, TIG, etc.)
  1. Joint Design:
  •    Types of joints and configurations
  1. Welding Parameters:
  •    Voltage, current, travel speed, heat input, etc.
  1. Position and Technique:
  •    Welding positions (flat, horizontal, vertical, overhead)
  •    Techniques (weaving, stringer bead, etc.)
  1. Preheat and Interpass Temperatures:
  •    Temperature control to avoid defects
  1. Post-Weld Heat Treatment:
  •    Requirements for stress relief and mechanical properties

Documentation Required

To proceed with WPS and PQR certification, the following documentation is typically required:

  1. Base Material Specifications:
  •    Technical data sheets for base and filler materials
  1. Welding Procedure Specification (WPS):
  •    Detailed welding instructions
  1. Procedure Qualification Record (PQR):
  •    Records of test welds and results
  1. Test Reports:
  •    Results of mechanical tests (tensile, bend, impact tests, etc.)
  1. Visual and Nondestructive Examination Reports:
  •    Inspection results for weld quality
