Job Description & How to Apply Below
- Parameter Configuration:
Set up and adjust machine parameters according to the Welding Procedure Specification(WPS), including welding current, voltage, wire feed speed, and travel speed. - Flux Management:
Ensure the proper flux type is used and that the flux hopper is full and properly positioned to deliver consistent, & granular flux to the weld joint. - Machine Inspection:
Verify the submerged arc tractor, carriage, or boom is functioning correctly, including proper grounding (work return cables) and electrode wire feeding. - Joint Preparation:
Ensure the work piece is secure, clean, and properly aligned,, particularly for large, heavy-duty components - Start/Stop Control:
Properly initiate the arc (often using steel wool or high-frequency units) and manage the stop/crater fill to avoid defects. - Welding Position - operator has to know the welding positions
- Safety Compliance:
Adhere to safety procedures, including wearing appropriate PPE, although a welding hood is often not required for the arc itself. Ensure good ventilation to handle potential fumes. - Flux/Slag Disposal:
Safely remove hot flux and welding slag, disposing of it in designated steel bins. - Equipment Maintenance:
Perform routine maintenance on the tractor, wire feeder, and flux handling equipment. - Never Leave Running:
Never leave an operating sub-arc machine unattended. - Technical drawing knowledge - Interpretation of technical drawings and weld symbols.
- Understanding of flux-wire combinations and their effect on mechanical properties.
- Ability to fix common defects such as porosity or cracking.
- Welding Procedure Specification (WPS), including welding current, voltage, wire feed speed, and travel speed.
- Welding Position - operator has to know the welding positions
- Blueprint Reads:
Ability to read engineering prints and interpret welding symbols - Basic understanding of mechanical adjustments, torch alignments, and routine equipment maintenance
- Safety and Material knowledge:
Understanding of workplace safety standards (OSHA compliance) and handling Personal Protective Equipment’s (PPE)
