Orbital Welding is responsible for executing high-precision welds on stainless steel and other materials using orbital welding systems. This role is critical to fabricating components that require clean, repeatable, and high-quality welds—often for industries like Semi-Conductor, Chemical processing. The welder must be skilled in both orbital and manual welding processes and work within engineering tolerances, following strict safety and quality standards.
-----------------------------------
Key Responsibilities:
· Set up and operate orbital welding equipment (e.g. tube-to-tube and tube-to-fitting welds).
· Interpret technical drawings, weld procedures, and specifications for complex assemblies.
· Perform high-purity welds in cleanroom or controlled environments when required.
· Execute manual TIG welding for prep, touch-ups, or areas not suited for orbital systems.
· Conduct visual and dimensional inspections on welds using borescopes, gauges, or x-ray support.
· Document welding parameters, batch records, and inspection results according to QA protocols.
· Collaborate with engineering and quality teams to ensure welding meets industry standards (e.g., ASME, AWS, EN).
· Maintain welding logs, equipment calibrations, and consumables inventory.
· Uphold 5S, safety practices, and regulatory compliance in all welding tasks.
· Participate in continuous improvement initiatives related to welding quality and productivity.
-----------------------------------
Qualifications:
· City & Guilds or equivalent required; welding certification preferred.
· Relevant experience in orbital welding in a production or regulated manufacturing environment.
· Proficiency in TIG welding and familiarity with stainless steel, Hastelloy, or other specialty alloys.
· Ability to use orbital welding systems (e.g., AMI, Swagelok, Orbitalum, or similar).
· Strong ability to interpret isometrics, and fabrication drawings.
· Experience working with high-purity or sanitary systems is a plus.
· Comfortable working in cleanroom or high-spec environments if required.
-----------------------------------
Key Competencies:
· High precision and attention to detail.
· Strong mechanical aptitude and problem-solving.
· Knowledge of welding quality standards and inspection processes.
· Strong documentation and compliance discipline.
· Ability to work independently and as part of a team under production deadlines.
