Estimate Time to Weld Stainless
Estimate Time to Weld Stainless
(OP)
I am double checking a price from a sub. How much time should I estimate for welding 10 gauge 316 stainless steel? The end product is an ASME pressure vessel. Also, if the material thickness is increased to 3/8 inches, is there an increase in time to weld? (Minutes/foot?)






RE: Estimate Time to Weld Stainless
How large are the weldments? What is the joint geometry? What process is being used to make the welds(GTAW, SMAW, GMAW, FCAW-G?)
How many welders are working simultaneously?(if this is a large vessel)
Need to know many more details before anyone can formulate an answer to your question...
