- Understand dimensional tolerances and quality requirements.
- Follow welding procedure specifications (WPS) and quality standards.

4. Equipment Operation and Maintenance

- Set up and operate welding machines and related tools.
- Adjust welding parameters such as current, voltage, and gas flow according to material and thickness.
- Perform routine maintenance and inspection of welding equipment.

5. Quality Inspection

- Conduct visual inspection of welded areas.
- Verify repair quality against specifications and acceptance criteria.
- Assist with non-destructive testing (NDT) activities such as dye penetrant inspection when required.




- Ensure welds are free from defects and meet customer requirements.

6. Grinding and Finishing

- Grind, polish, and blend repaired areas to achieve the required surface finish.
- Remove excess weld material while maintaining dimensional accuracy.
- Prepare castings for further machining, heat treatment, or final inspection.

7. Safety Compliance

- Follow workplace safety procedures and use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE).
- Handle welding gases, cylinders, and hot materials safely.
- Maintain a clean and organized work area to prevent accidents.

8. Production and Documentation
