Field Description
Wire Deposition This column displays the amount of wire (in pounds or kilograms) that was
deposited for the individual weld. If you want to see which power source made
the weld, you can click the link in the Start of Weld column to generate a Weld
Detail report.
Weld Detail Tab
The Weld Detail tab (Figure 5.28 on page 5.31) displays detailed information for an individual weld and
provides a wealth of information that was collected for that weld. There are any number of reasons you
would need to analyze an individual weld, and the Weld Detail tab allows you to do this.
TIP | Other reports may contain a link on an individual weld
listed in that report. You can click that link, and the system
automatically generates the Weld Detail report for you.
Weld Detail Criteria
When a Welding Power Source creates a weld, it assigns an identification number to that weld and sends it
to Production Monitoring™. The Weld ID is that number. In general, you access the Weld Detail report by
clicking a link in another report. The system automatically enters the Weld ID for the weld and displays the
report.
Figure 5.27 Weld Detail Criteria
If you happen to know the Weld ID of a weld whose data you want to view, you can enter that number in
the Criteria window and click Save to generate a report manually.
Weld Detail Report
Production Monitoring™ records a great deal of information about each individual weld. The Attribute
column displays the name of the piece of data collected, and the Value column displays the actual data.
Table 5.19 explains each piece of data in more detail.
