Perform routine gas tungsten arc welding
The Coded Welding Gas Tungsten Arc skill set covers preparing and producing welds to code standards using gas tungsten arc welding. It has been developed specifically to suit the role of a welder in the defence industry; for example those working on projects such as ship or aircraft building or the maintenance of military vehicles.
It will provide existing workers with the skills to be able to weld to the requirements of AS1796 and obtain Certification no. 7 from Weld Australia. You will also gain knowledge and skills on health and safety with welding, setting and maintaining welding parameters, as well as welding in the 2G and 5G weld positions.
Gain these skills:
- Learn how to apply safe welding practices
- Perform engineering measurementsÂ
- Interpreting welding specifications including standard welding symbolsÂ
- Selecting appropriate weld preparation methods for material and position of welds.
- Preparing materials, setting up of jigs, fixtures, clamps,etc. and joint preparationÂ
- Identifying defects as described in the range statement across a range of welded materials
- Advanced welding using Gas Tungsten Arc Welding Process
- Â Perform Welds to Code Standards using Gas Tungsten Arc Welding Process
