3. Does Irizar provide the WPS & PQR? No! We do not offer. The user is solely responsible for certifying WPS & PQR before deploying the equipment at the job site. A professional welding engineer should design [considering the applicable Code and Standards] by selecting the essential welding parameters such as plate beveling, wire and flux specifications, amperes and voltage, welding speed, etc.
4. Does Irizar provide the training? No! We do not offer. The Irizar Welding Manipulator must be operated by an experienced user who is a submerged arc welding operator with an updated ticket. The Welder Qualification Test (WQT) remains the user’s responsibility.
