Under the direct of the production supervision and Lead, the Longseam Welder uses specified welding processes and procedures to achieve 100% penetration welds for specified lengths of each shafts seam within prescribed codes, and according to prescribed procedures, specifications, and drawings.

• Performs visual inspection of the entire length of each seam to identify areas requiring repair.
• Reads and interprets drawings and/or computer print out “flat sheets” to determine requirement for 100% penetration welds.
• Grinds and/or air-arc gouges areas as necessary in preparation for welding.
• Adjusts welding machine to achieve desired results within parameters of established welding procedures.
• Using specified welding process (FCAW, GMAW, and/or SAW,) welds required areas to obtain 100% penetration.
• Reads and interprets applicable specifications and welding codes and procedures to determine preheat requirements. Uses oxy-fuel heating torch to preheat work specified temperature. Uses instruments provided to measure temperature of the material.
• Reads and interprets work orders and daily production schedules. Writes entries on daily production log to show work completed.
• Uses overhead crane to position work in pole-rollers and to move completed poles to designated areas.
• Adds, subtracts, multiplies, and divides feet, inches, fractions, and decimals. Uses tables to convert fractions to decimals and decimals to fractions.
• Visually inspects his/her work to assure that welds have been completed satisfactorily in accordance with applicable drawings, specifications, and codes.
• Assists and instructs other welders when needed to overcome deficiencies in quality and/or productivity.
• Wears protective equipment including safety glasses, insulated welding gloves, leather sleeves, and/or cape, face shield, and welding hood to protect himself from hot metal, arc rays, grinding debris, and other potentially harmful conditions.
• Inspects end of poles for straightness and squareness of edge cuts. Trims and/or grinds as necessary, in order to leave ends suitable for shipment to customer, or for fit up base plates.
• Uses power drills to drill and/or ream holes in pole sections as required by drawings.
• Welds other products in his or her area using either FCAW or GMAW process.
• Assembles two piece developments.
• Determines amperage and voltage settings, feed rate settings, required weld procedures, weld size and amount of penetration required.
• Grinds and/or cleans seams to ensure the required penetration and necessary UT quality weld.
• Performs daily, weekly, monthly operator preventive maintenance on seam weld machine.
• Adjust amperage, voltage, speed rates, and machine pressures constantly throughout the welding process to compensate for variations from the cutting and bending operations and the material variations.
• Additional duties as assigned

• High School Diploma or GED Equivalent preferred
• Must have knowledge of basic shop mathematics, addition, subtraction, fractions, multiplication and decimals.
• Proficiency in reading complex prints and specifications.
• Must know how to properly use a weld gauge.
• Read and write.
• Regular and timely attendance is required

• Must be able to lift up to 50 pounds.
• Must be able to perform…
