RE: [MW:24051] Welder Qualification as per ASME SEC IX

Hi Mohd. Azam,

Please look though the following extracts from Sec-IX. It’s advisable to test and qualify the welders separately and before assigning them in production joints.

Thanks..

Hi,

Can that welder be checked for any documentation for the similar works after he left the organisation. I mean that welder might have been working in different organisation but what if he/she had been working with the same welding parameters (this is just to say about his consistency in welding) and these documents are available?

Can that welder be waived off to re-qualify based on these documents as this will prove his consistency.

Dear Azam,

Welder Qualification shall be performed by each Qualifying Organisation according to ASME Sec.IX.

Yes the previous Qualification made by the X welder before leaving the organisation will be valid by qualifying a single test coupon for that process.

Thanks & Regards
