EN 1090 – WPS-Packages

Please choose your desired product.

With our WPS package for manual steel applications, you can save up to 85% on costs* and reduce the time spent having your products certified in accordance with EN 1090. The welding procedure specifications in accordance with EN 15612 (Qualification by adoption of a standard welding procedure specification) in these WPS packages contain details on various steel grades and material thicknesses as well as filler metals, and are available in digital form on a customer-specific basis. *Assumption: based on a minimum of 5 welding procedure tests

Content of the WPS package

The WPS package steel includes 121 welding procedure specifications for manual applications to material quality up to S460N. Additionally, pipes and tubular constructions are included.

Advantages of the WPS package

With our ready-made welding procedure specifications (WPS), you save on costs for lengthy welding procedure tests and the creation of your own specifications.

*Assumption: based on a minimum of 5 welding procedure tests

WPS packages help you to reduce your project workload and eliminate time-consuming steps on the way to CE marking.
You can use the WPS packages with both Fronius welding systems and equivalent welding systems from other manufacturers.

Creating the finished welding procedure specification

Since EN 1090 came into force in 2014, factory production control (FPC) is required for welded constructions of all execution classes.

This FPC demonstrates that appropriate welding procedure specifications (WPS) are in place at the workplace and work is carried out in line with them.

"While the entire process in steps 1 through 3 requires a great deal of planning work, the cost of qualifying the processes in step 4 is huge, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises. This is where Fronius comes in by offering ready-made and cost-effective WPS packages for manual steel and CrNi applications. The organizational costs associated with welding procedure qualification, which would be necessary to create the welding procedure specifications, are completely eliminated."
