EN ISO 9013 & 9692 — thermal cutting and joint preparation
What is it?
ISO 9013 grades the quality of thermally cut edges (plasma, oxy-fuel, laser); ISO 9692 defines how joints must be prepared for welding (angles, gaps, root faces) — the "fit-up" that determines weld quality before the arc starts.
What evidence should a candidate have?
Fabrication roles covering cutting and fit-up for welders, with drawing-based preparation and named cutting processes.
Why it matters for staffing
Good preparers double a welding team's output — a fitter who delivers clean, correct fit-ups is the most underrated profile in fabrication.
