Specification and qualification of welding procedures for production welding of steel castings (ISO 11970:2016)
ISO 11970:2016 specifies how a welding procedure specification (WPS) for production welding of steel castings is qualified.
It defines the conditions for the execution of welding procedure qualification tests and the limits of validity of a qualified welding procedure for all practical welding operations within the range of essential variables.
Tests are intended to be carried out in accordance with this International Standard unless additional tests are specified by the purchaser or by agreement between the contracting parties.
ISO 11970:2016 applies to the arc welding of steel castings. The principles of this International Standard can be applied to other fusion welding processes subject to agreement between the contracting parties.
In the case of specific service, material or manufacturing conditions, tests more comprehensive than those specified by this International Standard can be specified by the purchaser, in order to gain more information, e.g. longitudinal weld tensile tests, bend tests, chemical analyses, ferrite determination in austenitic stainless steels, elongation, Charpy "V" impact tests, and radiography.

Diese Internationale Norm legt fest, wie die Schweißanweisung (en: welding procedure specification ,= WPS) für Produktionsschweißungen von Stahlguss anerkannt wird.
Es werden Bedingungen für die Durchführung der Anerkennung von Verfahrensprüfungen und die Grenzen der Gültigkeit eines anerkannten Schweißverfahrens für alle praktischen Schweißtätigkeiten im Bereich der grundlegenden Einflussgrößen definiert.
Prüfungen sind in Übereinstimmung mit dieser Internationalen Norm durchzuführen, wenn nicht zusätzliche Prüfungen durch den Kunden oder durch Übereinkunft zwischen den Vertragsparteien festgelegt werden.
Diese Internationale Norm gilt für das Lichtbogenschweißen von Stahlguss. Die Prinzipien dieser Internationalen Norm dürfen auch auf andere Schmelzschweißverfahren angewendet werden, falls es eine entsprechende Übereinkunft zwischen den Vertragsparteien gibt.
Umfassendere Prüfungen, als sie in dieser Internationalen Norm aufgeführt sind, dürfen zur besseren Information des Kunden von diesem für bestimmte Einsatz , Werkstoff oder Herstellbedingungen verlangt werden, z. B. Längszugversuche an der Schweißnaht, Biegeversuche, chemische Analysen, Ferrit Bestimmung in austenitischen nichtrostenden Stählen, Dehnung, Charpy V Kerbschlagbiegeversuch, Durchstrahlung usw.

ISO 11970:2016は、鋼鋳物の製造用溶接手順書(WPS)の資格をどのように定めるかを規定しています。 本規格は、必須変数の範囲内での実用的な溶接作業のための溶接手順資格試験の実施条件と、資格を持つ溶接手順の有効期限を定義しています。 追加の試験が発注者または契約当事者間で指定されない限り、試験はこの国際規格に従って実施されることが意図されています。 ISO 11970:2016は鋼鋳物のアーク溶接に適用されますが、契約当事者間の合意により他の融合溶接プロセスにも適用できます。 特定のサービス、材料、または製造条件の場合、発注者はより詳細な情報を得るため、この国際規格で定められたものよりも包括的な試験を指定することができます。例えば、鋳物引張り試験、曲げ試験、化学分析、オーステナイトステンレス鋼のフェライト判定、伸び、Charpy "V" 衝撃試験、および放射線検査などがあります。
ISO 11970:2016는 강철 주조물의 생산용 용접 공정 명세 (WPS)를 어떻게 합격시킬 것인지를 명시한다. 이것은 필수 조건의 범위 내에서 모든 실용적인 용접 작업에 대한 용접 공정 합격 시험 수행 조건과 합격 용접 공정의 유효기간을 정의한다. 구매자가 구매자 또는 계약 당사자 간에 특별한 시험을 요구하지 않는 한, 테스트는 이 국제 표준에 따라 수행되어야 한다. ISO 11970:2016은 강철 주조물의 아크 용접에 적용된다. 이 국제 표준의 원칙은 계약 당사자 간에 합의된 경우 다른 융합 용접 공정에도 적용될 수 있다. 특정한 서비스, 소재 또는 제조 조건의 경우, 구매자는 더 많은 정보를 얻기 위해 이 국제 표준에서 명시된 것보다 포괄적인 테스트를 요구할 수 있다. 예를 들어, 축방향 용접 인장 시험, 굴림 시험, 화학 분석, 오스테나이트 스테인레스 스틸에서 페라이트 결정, 연신율, Charpy "V" 충격 시험 및 방사선 검사 등이 있다.
The article discusses EN ISO 11970:2016, which is a specification and qualification for welding procedures used in the production welding of steel castings. The standard defines the conditions and limits for qualifying a welding procedure specification. It also states that tests should be conducted in accordance with the standard, unless additional tests are requested by the purchaser or agreed upon between the parties involved. The standard applies specifically to arc welding of steel castings, but can be extended to other fusion welding processes if agreed upon. It also mentions that in certain cases, the purchaser may specify more comprehensive tests to gather more information about the service, material, or manufacturing conditions. Examples of such additional tests include longitudinal weld tensile tests, bend tests, chemical analyses, ferrite determination in austenitic stainless steels, elongation, Charpy "V" impact tests, and radiography.
