1. PURPOSE
1.1. To established technical guidelines to perform and calibrate inverter welding
machine, rectifier welding machine, A/C transformer welding machine, an
engine driven welding machine. And to ensure that only those calibrated
welding machines will produce acceptable quality professional weld as per
national and international standards.
1.2. To minimize the current and voltage deviations between welding machine
set parameters and work piece and certify the welding machine.
1.3. Several national and international standards specify that the welding
machine to be used for welding machine products shall be calibrated.
1.4. Welding machine current / voltage is an essential variable in all of the
national and International Standards. A change in current / voltage can change
weld joint properties and introduce unacceptable discontinuities. Hence having
correct current / voltage reading on the welding machine is very vital to
produce acceptable quality welds.
2. SCOPE
This procedure details the requirement that is required to be implemented for the
welding machine calibration.
3. EXPLANATION / DEFINITIONS
KL
Open Circuit Voltage (OCV) Is the voltage at the output terminal of the
welding machine when it is energized but no
current is being drawn.
Arc Voltage Is the voltage between the electrode and the work
during welding

5. MATERIALS REQUIRED
5.3. Leads
5.4. Clamp on meter
6. DIVERSION
It is the difference in magnitude between the current rating of the welding machine
and the actual value measured in amperage volt ammeter clamp, taking as basis
the corresponding nominal value.
7. RESPONSIBILITIES
KL
7.1. Production Supervisor and / or Sr. Foreman responsibility
7.1.1. Use only calibrated welding machines.
7.1.2. Advice the staff involved and apply the requirements of this procedure
7.1.3. Arrange and meet with the minimum premises and equipment calibration.
7.1.4. Notify the Quality Control prior to the date for the calibration of welding
machine.
7.2. The Section of the Quality / Welding Inspector responsibility
7.2.1. Notify the Technical Dept. prior to the date for the calibration of welding
machine.
7.2.2. Receive the welding machine calibration certificates from Technical Dept.
and inspect, the welding machine calibration certificate in acceptable
criteria,
7.2.3. Calibration certificate to be stamped, sign and authorized to use the
welding machine.
7.2.4. Verify the validity of the calibration time.(As per Client requirement)
7.2.5. Affix labels on the welding machine indicating the calibration.
7.2.6. Maintain proper inventory and calibration records.
8. CALIBRATION
Note: This period can be set by the inspector but not higher than that
specified above.
KL
welding machine.(Welding machine Dial)
Note: Evidence records calibration results of deviations in from. Calibrations should happen in
bands of every (It should indicate the calibration bands for gradual measurement are
taken e.g. every 40A, 60A, 80A
9.1. The results of the calibration process must be registered in the Control of
Calibration of welding machine. It should be kept track of time calibration, so no
equipment is used with their deadlines expired.
9.2. The equipment may only be labeled when they are approved.
