Quality assurance in the Digital Welding System Z5

With the Digital Welding System Z5, quality assurance of the seam can be carried out during welding.

In addition to recording of data in Data Recording, in the Digital Welding System Z5, quality assurance files in the real „xls“-Excel® format are automatically generated. For each welded seam, an Excel® workbook is generated containing all mechanical, electrical and welding setup parameters of the corresponding welding process.

Moreover, during welding, the following parameters are recorded in relation to the pipe position:

  • welding currents
  • welding voltages
  • wire feeding speeds
  • wire feeding motor torques

This system is a very helpful supplement to WinCC Data Recording that operates database-oriented and can only store time-related data.

If there is any deviaton from tolerances, in the Digital Welding System Z5, the corresponding pipe position is registered. Thus, irregularities in the welding process can be easily assigned to the pipe position and repaired, if necessary.
