Welder Qualification Testing
Fusion Pro Testing And Training LLC provides welder qualification testing to certify welders and verify their ability to produce welds that meet applicable requirements. Our welder qualification testing takes place onsite at the shop, allowing the welder to complete a weld test conveniently in their normal work environment. We then inspect the completed weld to determine whether the work meets the applicable code requirements. This process provides a direct assessment of the welder’s work based on an actual test weld.
Contact us today at (262) 309-7083 to discuss the testing requirements and arrange an onsite visit.
What Can Your Shop Expect From Onsite Testing?
We coordinate the qualification testing at your shop, where the welder performs the required weld test onsite. Once completed, we inspect the weld against the applicable code requirements to determine whether the welder’s demonstrated work satisfies the qualification criteria.
Onsite testing generally involves:
- Coordinating a testing date at the shop
- Having the welder complete the required test weld
- Inspecting the finished weld
- Evaluating the weld against applicable code requirements
- Determining whether the weld meets the required criteria
We evaluate each test weld according to the requirements that apply to the qualification.
How Are Welder Qualification Tests Conducted?
Welder qualification tests are conducted onsite at the shop, where the welder performs a test weld according to the requirements that apply to the qualification. Applicable welding codes can establish requirements for how the test is conducted and the criteria used to determine whether the welder qualifies.
Once the test weld is complete, we inspect and evaluate it using the appropriate methods and resources. These may include fillet gauges, the Lincoln Procedure Handbook, and code books such as AWS D1.1. The results of the test are then used to determine whether the welder has satisfied the requirements for the applicable qualification.
How Long Should You Allow for Qualification Testing?
The typical completion time for this service is 1 to 3 days. The exact timeframe can vary based on the shop location, complexity of the testing, and overall project size.
For example, the scheduling and inspection requirements for a smaller qualification assignment may differ from those of a larger project involving more extensive testing needs. Reviewing the scope beforehand allows us to determine what will be required onsite and provide a more appropriate timeframe for the work.
