If you are in the Welding business you clearly know that a Welding Procedure Specification (WPS) is a document to guide the effective creation of a weld that meets all applicable code requirements and production standards.
The WPS contains details that are necessary to create the desired weld. This includes information such as base metal grade, filler metal classification, amperage range, shielding gas composition, and pre-heat and interpass temperatures.
The traditional way to produce a WPS would be to search through legacy documents or code books, we have even created a post to distill some of this data so you can use this helpful link to manually look-up the "P numbers" and "F numbers" or alternatively you can watch the video below that shows how to create a WPS in ProWrite in under 90 seconds?
It is your choice but we think you'd rather be welding than looking up tables in code books!
