Re: [MW:11737] Clarification of PQR/WPS in FCAW process

By Materials & Welding
Dear friends,

WPS Must be corrected accordingly.
If Welder Qualified in 3G welder can weld 1G&3G position only.(Pl go trhough ASME Sec-IX).
All informations must be fill accordance with formate issued in ASME Sec-IX and not to take shortcut for information because everyone dont know what is what

Regards,
RKVichare.

Subject: [MW:11723] Clarification of PQR/WPS in FCAW process

Dear Experts,

 

I need some clarification in document review. PQR qualified in FCAW process for 27 mm plate in 3G position. WPS is prepared for structural joint for 34 mm in all positions.What is the essential one?

 


  1. In FCAW proces PQR , Electrode AWS no. E71-T-1C is used. But in WPS E71-T-1 is mentioned. Whether its ok?

  2. PQR in FCAW qualifies 3G position of 27mm plates as per ASME SEc.IX and API-650. What is qualification of position in WPS for 3G whether its ALL POSITION or only 3G postion?

  3. The WPS is to be used for structural activies. ie. as per AWS D1.1. But in WPS also mentioned reference code as ASME sec.IX and AWS D1.1.

Plz clarify.

 

Thanks

 

Arvinda.

Re: [MW:34105] SA266 GR4N 4 Cycle SPWHT

By Materials & Welding
Hi,  You are correct, Minimum refers to the one cycle for which this part will expose until final work shop PWHT. hence mill test certificate shall include this.  Max. SPWHT, refers to additional cycles of heat treatment that are reserved for future repairs during equipment lifetime.  Again, these simulated no. Of cycles shall be specified in MTC.  The idea is we need to make sure that steel mechanical properties are not compromised upon exposure to multiple repairs (i e 4 cycles in your case).  One could say, if steel is subjected to 4 cycles and is ok, then it should by defacto be good for one cycle, yet, this is wrong assumption cause mechanical problems and microstructure of materials varies accordingly based on no. Of cycles for which material will expose. This is apparent in alloy steel and especially for impact test values as an example.  In your case, this forged CS with properties before PWHT can be understood to be " as forged" condition (i.e. Wit...

Heat tint (temper) colours on stainless steel surfaces heated in air // Heat tint

By Materials & Welding
Introduction The colour formed when stainless steel is heated, either in a furnace application or in the heat affected zone of welds, is dependent on several factors that are related to the oxidation resistance of the steel. The heat tint or temper colour formed is caused by the progressive thickening of the surface oxide layer and so, as temperature is increased, the colours change.   Oxidation resistance of stainless steels However, there are several factors that affect the degree of colour change and so there is no a single table of colour and temperature that represents all cases. The colours formed can only be used as an indication of the temperature to which the steel has been heated. Factors affecting the heat tint colours formed Steel composition The chromium content is the most important single factor affecting oxidation resistance. The higher the chromium, the more heat resistant the steel and so the development of the heat tint colou...
