Duties of the welding engineer/supervisor
[who is responsible for monitoring the baking and electrode issue process.]
There shall be a designated welding engineer/supervisor for monitoring the electrode managing process as a whole.
His duties are,
1. Physical cross checking of qty of electrodes in the oven with that written in the baking register.
2. Physical cross checking of type of electrodes in the oven (both mother oven and portable oven) with that written in the baking register.
3. Checking of the electrode issue slip against baking register for,
3.a. Welder number
3.b. Qualification of welder and electrodes issued
3.c. Quantity of electrode issued and that recorded in the baking register.
4. Communication with all site engineers for the electrode requirement according to their job planning.
5. Necessary instructions to the electrode issuer for maintaining the required quantity of electrode for the next day.
6. Random physical check of baked electrodes for
9.a. Cracks in electrode flux if any
9.b. Over heating or under heating of electrodes
9.c. Communication with welders for the quality of baked electrodes.
7. Stock verification of electrodes against issued electrodes.
8. Order for electrodes if reorder level is reached.
9. Followup for the timely supply of electrodes.
10. Receipt of fresh electrodes
10.a. Verification of quantity, size and AWS class of electrodes against delivery challan.
10.b. Verification of the material test certificate (MTC) of the electrodes for confirmation that the same are meeting the project specification requirements.
10.c. Preparation of the incoming material inspection report and get it signed by Client/TPI if required.
10.d. On receipt of electrodes if damaged electrodes or broken hermetically sealed packets are found it should be brought to the notice of the purchasing officer and necessary corrective actions are to be suggested/taken.

Electrode bit returning process.
ELECTRODE BIT
The electrode bit is the 1" long electrode end (the holder end) that becomes balance after welding.
The electrode bits are to be returned by the welder assistant (helper to welder) to the electrode issue store and to be handover to the electrode issuer.
This is done for 3 reasons.
1. The electrode bit will not be spreaded all over the welding area as it usually occurs.
2. It is having a resale value.
3. This makes a control for the electrode issue process
The welder assistant will return the electrode bits to the electrode issuer. The electrode issuer after verifying the quantity will issue the next lot of electrodes (For the next lot of electrodes electrode bits along with electrode issue slip is needed). Based on the minimum quantity of the two conditions (electrode bit returned and the quantity in the electrode issue slip) electrodes are given to the welding assistant by the electrode issuer.
