Digital Welding Procedure Specification (dWPS)

X5 WF APC

The use of digital WPS (Welding Procedure Specification, dWPS) and WeldEye cloud service require X5 Wire Feeder 300 APC and a valid Kemppi WeldEye subscription with the Welding Procedures module. The X5 equipment includes a link to a free trial registration – featuring also a free trial option for WeldEye ArcVision. For more information on WeldEye, refer to weldeye.com or contact your Kemppi representative.

Digital Welding Procedure Specification (dWPS) is a WPS in digital format that can be set to observe the welding parameters of the supported X5 FastMig equipment. The WPS view shows the digital WPSs with one or more weld passes assigned to the welder or welding station in the Kemppi WeldEye cloud service.

The WPSes can be read on the control panel display and/or a memory channel can be linked with a WPS. X5 Wire Feeder 300 APC control panel provides a couple of ways to do this:

>>  In the main WPS view: Follow the more detailed steps in APC control panel: WPS view.

>>  In the Memory channels view via activating an existing memory channel: Open the memory channel 'Actions' and choose to link it with a WPS. In the view that opens, select the WPS and weld pass information to be linked with the memory channel. More detailed information on memory channels is in AP/APC control panel: Channels.

Once a WPS is linked to a memory channel, the welding parameters are still manually adjustable, but the adjustment ranges defined on the active WPS are indicated on the screen.
