At Solidus IQ, we provide comprehensive Welder Performance Qualification Record (WPQR) services in Newcastle to ensure that your welders meet the highest industry standards.
A Welder performance Qualification Record (WPQR) is an official document that verifies a welder’s ability to create welds that meet specified criteria. It is developed after the welder passes a qualification test based on a Welding Procedure Specification (WPS). This record demonstrates that the welder can produce a weld that meets the standards outlined in the code ISO 9606, to comply with other standards including AS/NZS 1554, and AS/NZS 3992.
You may wonder;
“Why do I need a WPQR if my welder already has the skills?”
The answer is simple: even if a welder can perform the task, the WPQR proves that their work adheres to the required quality and safety standards. In critical industries, welding quality directly impacts structural integrity and safety. With a valid WPQR, you can be confident that your welding team meets the requirements, reducing the risk of defects and failures. Check out the Australian Standards website HERE.
