Just started a new job as welding supervisor. Aside from lots and lots
of other crap that is wrong with the way the company is doing things
at the moment, they have such a scattered array of WPS's in both ASME
IX and BS EN 287-1 that it is almost impossible to collate and use all
the information.
Our biggest client (national electricity supplier) is shifting to an
entirely BS EN 287-1 controlled system, from a mix of ASME and BS EN,
which means that we as a subcontractor of theirs must do the same.
I'm busy working through the WPS's available to me so far and trying
to relate them to one another, to see where we need to formulate
completely new WPS's and where we can trans-code them to their
equivalents. Also just to get the list of all of them in one place.
What I'm hoping is that someone out there has done something similar
to this before and how you approached it.
If it helps at all, our BSEN WPS #'s look like this S B 3 03. 8 (20) S
(SMAW, Butt, material 3, Sequence number 03, filler 8, Preheat 20
deg., Stress relieving)
and our ASME IX ones are as follows M B x 1. 8 (20) S (SMAW, Butt,
Symbol [on drawing], material group 1, filler group 8, 20deg. preheat
and stress relieving)
Any help would be appreciated,
Cheers,
Ken
