Qualitätsanforderungen für das Schmelzschweißen von metallischen Werkstoffen - Teil 1: Kriterien für die Auswahl der geeigneten Stufe der Qualitätsanforderungen (ISO/DIS 3834-1:2020)

Dieses Dokument beschreibt die allgemeine Auslegung der Normenreihe ISO 3834 und die zu beachtenden Kriterien für die Auswahl der geeigneten Stufe der Qualitätsanforderungen für das Schmelzschweißen von metallischen Werkstoffen, aus den drei festgelegten Stufen in ISO 3834-2[1], ISO 3834-3[2] und ISO 3834-4[3]. Es gilt für die Herstellung, sowohl in Werkstätten als auch auf Baustellen.
ANMERKUNG 1 ISO 3834-2, ISO 3834-3 und ISO 3834-4 enthalten komplette Sätze von Qualitätsanforderungen zur Prozesskontrolle für alle Schmelzschweißprozesse (für einen einzelnen Prozess oder in einer festgelegten Kombination). ISO 3834-5 legt die Dokumente fest, deren Anforderungen erfüllt werden müssen, um die Übereinstimmung mit den Qualitätsanforderungen nach ISO 3834-2, ISO 3834-3 oder ISO 3834-4 nachzuweisen.
Dieses Dokument legt keine Anforderungen für ein Qualitätsmanagementsystem fest. Aber Abschnitt 6 enthält Elemente eines Qualitätsmanagementsystems, deren Einschluss ISO 3834 ergänzt.
ANMERKUNG 2 ISO 3834-2, ISO 3834-3 und ISO 3834-4 dürfen für sich allein oder in Verbindung mit ISO 9001:2015 vom Hersteller angewendet werden.

Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards

bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out

through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical

committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International

organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.

ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of

electrotechnical standardization.

described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the

different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the

editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).

Introduction

Processes such as fusion welding are widely used to manufacture many products. In some companies, they

are the key feature of production. Products may range from simple to complex. Examples include pressure

vessels, domestic and agricultural equipment, cranes, bridges, transport vehicles and other items.

These processes exert a profound influence on the cost of manufacture and quality of the product. It is

important, therefore, to ensure that these processes are carried out in the most effective way and that

appropriate control is exercised over all aspects of the operation.

It is emphasised that the ISO 3834 series is not a quality management system standard replacing

ISO 9001:2015. However, it can be a useful tool when ISO 9001:2015 is applied by manufacturers.

Specification of quality requirements for welding processes is important because the quality of these

processes cannot be readily or economically validated. Therefore, they are considered to be special

processes as noted by ISO 9000:2015.

Quality cannot be inspected into a product: quality has to be built in. Even the most extensive and

sophisticated non-destructive testing does not improve the quality of the product.

For products to be free from serious problems in production and in service, it is necessary to provide

controls, from the design phase, through material selection, into manufacture and subsequent

inspection. For example, poor design may create serious and costly difficulties in the workshop, on site,

or in service. Incorrect material selection may result in problems, such as cracking in welded joints.

To ensure sound and effective manufacturing, management needs to understand and appreciate the

sources of potential trouble and to implement appropriate procedures for their control.

The ISO 3834 series identifies measures that are applicable for different situations. Typically, they may

be applied in the following circumstances:
— in contractual situations: specification of welding quality requirements;

— by manufacturers: establishment and maintenance of welding quality requirements;

— by committees drafting manufacturing codes or application standards: specification of welding

quality requirements;

— by organizations assessing welding quality performance, e.g. third parties, customers, or

manufacturers.

The ISO 3834 series can be used by internal and external organizations, including certification

bodies, to assess the manufacturer's ability to meet customer, regulatory or the manufacturer's own

requirements.

Quality requirements for fusion welding of metallic
materials —
Part 1:
Criteria for the selection of the appropriate level of quality
requirements
1 Scope

This document provides a general outline of the ISO 3834 series and criteria to be taken into account

for the selection of the appropriate level of quality requirements for fusion welding of metallic

[1] [2] [3]

materials, among the three levels specified in ISO 3834-2 , ISO 3834-3 and ISO 3834-4 . It applies

to manufacturing, both in workshops and at field installation sites.

NOTE 1 ISO 3834-2, ISO 3834-3 and ISO 3834-4 provide complete sets of quality requirements for process

control related to all fusion welding processes (for each process separately or in combination as specified).

ISO 3834-5 specifies the documents with which it is necessary to conform to claim conformity to the quality
