WeldScore™
A WeldScore™ is the average WeldScore™ taken throughout the duration of the weld. The system then
provides an average WeldScore™ value for the weld. The WeldScore™ report on the Weld Listing tab
provides the average score per hour for each of the Weld Profiles over the time period you select.
NOTE | If WeldScore™ data is not available (i.e., no weld was
trained), the Weld Profile does not display in the report.
You can customize this graph to show the WeldScore™ for all Weld Profiles or for a specific profile (as long
as they are trained), as well as for different time durations. See Table 11.5 on page 11.12 for details on the
criteria available for this report.
Current/Voltage
The Current/Voltage report is useful for people such as Weld Engineers to analyze the arc current and
voltage going into welds for the various Weld Profiles they have created for the Welding Power Source. For
each Weld Profile you select in this report (or for all profiles), CheckPoint™ displays a graph for the average
current and another graph for the average voltage over the time period you select.
NOTE | Remember, the Weld Profile must have limits enabled in
order for CheckPoint™ to display any data.
You can customize this report to show average current and voltage for all Weld Profiles or for a specific
profile (as long as they were trained), as well as for specific date ranges and shifts. See Table 11.5 on page
11.12 for details on the criteria available for this report.
Wire Feed Speed
Knowing the Wire Feed Speed is important for those who need to analyze how fast the material was put
into a weld and how much material was used per weld. This can help identify any adjustments that need to
be made at the Welding Power Source. Hundreds of times per second, the Welding Power Source takes a
measurement of the speed at which the wire is put into the weld.
When the weld is complete, the power source averages those measurements together. The Wire Feed
Speed graph displays this average wire feed speed for the welds made using the selected Welding Profile(s)
over a specific time period.
You can customize this graph to show average wire feed speed for all Weld Profiles or for a specific profile
(as long as they are trained), as well as for specific date ranges and shifts. See Table 11.5 on page 11.12 for
details on the criteria available for this report.
Deposition
The Deposition report allows you to analyze how much material was used for each weld made by the
Welding Power Source or Container of power sources you have selected in the Asset Tree. The report
plots the average rate at which the material was deposited (normalized to pounds per hour) for welds
performed using the Weld Profile(s) selected.
You can customize this graph to show average deposition rate for all Weld Profiles or for a specific profile
(as long as they are trained), as well as for specific date ranges and shifts. See Table 11.5 on page 11.12 for
details on the criteria available for this report.
