Welding - Acceptance inspection of electron beam welding machines - Part 4: Measurement of welding speed (ISO 14744-4:2000)

This standard is intended for use when the welding speed for elctron beam welding machines complying with prEN ISO 14744-1 is to be measured in connection with an acceptance inspection. It provides essential information on the procedure and apparatus to be used for making the measurements. Alternative standardised procedures can be used, provided they have at least the same acceptance inspection as the welds specified in this part 4. The measured parameter is the speed of the translational and rotational movements required to perform the welding operation.

Schweißen - Abnahmeprüfung von Elektronenstrahl-Schweißmaschinen - Teil 4: Messen der Schweißgeschwindigkeit (ISO 14744-4:2000)

Diese Norm ist für das Messen der Schweißgeschwindigkeit bei Abnahmeprüfungen von Elektronenstrahl-Schweißmaschinen nach prEN ISO 14744-1 anzuwenden. Sie enthält wesentliche Informationen zum Verfahren und zu Geräten für die Durchführung der Messungen. Andere genormte Verfahren können verwendet werden, sofern sie zur Abnahmeprüfung gemäß diesem Teil 4 geeignet sind. Die zu messende Schweißgeschwindigkeit bezieht sich auf Translations- und Rotationsbewegungen, die zur Ausführung des Schweißvorganges erforderlich sind.

Soudage - Essais de réception des machines de soudage par faisceau d'électrons - Partie 4: Mesure de la vitesse de soudage (ISO 14744-4:2000)

La présente norme internationale a pour but d'être utilisée lorsque la vitesse de soudage de machines de soudage par faisceau d'électrons en conformité avec l'ISO 14744-1 est à mesurer dans le cadre d'essais de réception.  Elle fournit des informations essentielles sur le mode opératoire et les appareillages à utiliser pour réaliser de telles mesures.  D'autres modes opératoires normalisés peuvent être utilisés, dans la mesure où ils satisfont au même essai de réception que les soudures spécifiées dans cette partie 4. Le paramètre mesuré est la vitesse de translation et de rotation prescrite pour effectuer l'opération de soudage.  La vitesse de soudage est un des paramètres importants en soudage par faisceau d'électrons. L'assemblage à souder ou le point où est effectuée la soudure doit ainsi être déplacé à une vitesse uniforme, de manière reproductible, dans des limites à court terme et à long terme données. L'objet de la mesure est de vérifier si les variations de la vitesse de soudage sont maintenues dans ces limites.

Overview

EN ISO 14744-4:2000 - "Welding - Acceptance inspection of electron beam welding machines - Part 4: Measurement of welding speed" (CEN) specifies how to measure the welding speed of electron beam welding (EBW) machines during acceptance inspection. The standard applies when measuring the translational and rotational speeds required for the welding operation on EBW machines that conform to prEN ISO 14744-1. It defines the essential information on the procedure and apparatus to be used for speed measurement and allows alternative standardized procedures if they provide equivalent acceptance criteria.

Key topics and requirements

  • Scope of measurement: Focuses on the speed of translational and rotational movements necessary to perform electron beam welding.
  • Acceptance inspection context: Intended for use during machine acceptance testing to verify performance against agreed requirements.
  • Procedure and apparatus guidance: Provides essential guidance on measurement methods and the types of equipment considered suitable for speed verification (no specific proprietary equipment mandated).
  • Equivalence clause: Permits alternative standardized methods provided they achieve at least the same acceptance criteria as those described in this part.
  • Compliance linkage: Intended for EBW machines that comply with prEN ISO 14744-1, forming part of the broader ISO 14744 series for acceptance inspection of electron beam welding machines.

Practical applications

EN ISO 14744-4:2000 is practical for:

  • Manufacturers of electron beam welding machines performing factory acceptance tests.
  • Quality and test engineers verifying machine kinematics and welding program speeds before delivery.
  • Inspection and certification bodies conducting acceptance inspections for compliance with EBW performance requirements.
  • End users in industries requiring precise EBW control - such as aerospace, automotive, power generation, and research laboratories - who need documented proof of machine capability.
  • Maintenance teams validating repaired or upgraded motion subsystems against original acceptance criteria.
