WELDING COST ESTIMATIONS

Engineering Pulse This module uses the method of calculating welding cost recommended by Welding Specialists. Values provided by form on certain inputs are taken from studies conducted by internationally acclaimed institutes. Calculation No: 2014WC002 Joint Type: Joint Detail: Weld Process: Welding Method: Total Weld Length: Joint Thickness: Joint Dimensions Root Gap (g): Groove Angle (): Cap Height (h): Thickness (t1): Consumables: Consumable Group: Gas Consumption: Operator Factor: Power Characteristics: Cost per KWh Cost Input: Consumable Cost Basis: Flux Cost: Gas Cost: 1 Bohler GBP/kg GBP/cu.m Consumable Cost: Labor Cost: 30 / / 35 GBP/kg GBP/hr 1 GBP Stainless & High Alloy Steel 0.32 20 cu.m/100A.h % Consumable Spec: Deposition Efficiency: Deposition Rate: Welding Voltage: Welding Current: 1.5 2.4 mm deg mm mm Root Face Height (a): Root Penetration (r): Branch Thickness (tb): 1.5 1.6 mm mm mm Groove Angle (b): Radius (r1): Header Thick (th): 37.5 deg mm mm Groove VGroove GTAW (root/hot) + SMAW (fill/cap) Manual 8.621 12.7 m mm
