GB/T 19805-2005Qualification test of welding operators (English PDF)

Foreword

This Standard identically adopts ISO 14732.1998 "Welding personnel -

Approval testing of welding operators for fusion welding and of resistance weld

setters for fully mechanized and automatic welding of metallic materials"

(English version).

In order to ensure the standard coordination and operability, this Standard

makes the necessary editorial changes in the equivalent of the translation of

the international standard.

Compared with ISO 14732.1998, this Standard has the following changes in

the content.

- directly used the definitions of GB/T 3375 "Welding terminology" for "fully

mechanized welding" and "automatic welding";

- the term "welding operator" has a broader meaning and includes resistance

weld setter;

- in view of the fact that several normative references in ISO 14732 are being

revised, this Standard has been dealt with in the corresponding provisions

in light of the actual situation in China.

This Standard was proposed by China Machinery Industry Federation.

This Standard shall be under the jurisdiction of National Technical Committee

on Welding of Standardization Administration of China.

Qualification test of welding operators

1 Scope

This Standard specifies requirements for approval of welding operators for

fusion welding and resistance weld setters for fully mechanized and automatic

welding processes of metallic materials. Only welding operators/resistance

weld setters responsible for the setting up and/or adjustment during welding

have to be approved. Personnel exclusively performing the programming of the

welding unit or operation of the welding unit do not need any particular approval.

This Standard is applicable when approval testing of operators/resistance weld

setters is required by the contract or by the application standard.
