With the increasing impact of automation on welding operations, the International Institute of Welding (IIW) has developed a multi-level qualification system for personnel involved in mechanized, orbital and robotic welding processes. Mechanized or automated welding applications require not only technical knowledge, but also the correct understanding and management of all variables in terms of the quality and economic efficiency of the process. The International Mechanized, Orbital and Robotic Welding Personnel (IMORWP) training developed in this context has a modular structure that can be customized according to the needs of the industry. The training can be taken in the fields of mechanized, orbital and/or robotic welding at Basic and Comprehensive levels.
