WELD WORKS

Better than any library: CONSTRUCT CUSTOM WELDS ONSCREEN

With WELDWORKS, from Palisades Research, your symbol takes shape before your eyes as you build it. When done, insert it with a touch. Reuse the symbol over and over, making changes as needed, as you progressively annotate your drawing. Save symbols as templates to recall for use in any drawing. WeldWorks implements the latest ANSI/AWS specifications (A2.4-93).

• Create simple and complex custom weld symbols quickly and easily.
• Fillet, flange, groove, plug, projection. seam, slot, spot, stud, and surface welds.
• Also includes brazing, examination and all applicable supplemental symbols.
• Literally hundreds of possible weld symbol variations at your fingertips.
• 100% compliancy with ANSI American Welding Society specifications.
• Straightforward, flexible dialogue interface makes you productive immediately.
• Supports AutoCad R12 , R13 and R14, 2000 for DOS or Windows platforms.

How It Works

First, pop up the WeldWorks dialog box in the middle of any AutoCAD drawing session. Select the Weld Type: Fillet, Flange, Groove, Plug, Projection, Seam, Slot, Spot, Stud, Surfacing. A visual template for the type pops up in the display window. Specify Supplements: weld all around, field weld, consumable insert, melt through, back or backing, joint with backing. Assign other characteristics such as Direction, Placement, Contours (concave, convex, flush, or none), and predefined Finish Symbols.

Labels and Noting: WeldWorks has ANSI standard noting built in (where AAC-MA stands for Air Arch-Carbon Manual weld, for example). You can also attach user-defined labels that will be displayed with each insertion to pass along extra instructions.

Configurable: You can specify different layers for various symbol components, the block to be used for leader line arrowheads, arrowhead size, symbol scaling, and multiple leader lines. Save and recall these settings.

Automatic Bills of Material: WeldWorks automatically embeds valuable information into each symbol insertion including weld size, length, and pitch. Extract this data for creating reports, BOMs, purchase orders, and for use with spreadsheets, etc.

• Flexible settings allow you to control layers, leader lines, text style, text size, scale and much more.
• Save your most commonly used weld symbol configurations. Restore them quickly and easily.
• Manually insert blocks from WeldWorks' extensive library of welding symbols.
• Easily accessible, comprehensive list of standard AWS welding reference abbreviations.
• Extract weld label attributes to a file for use in a database or bill of materials.
