Simplify and speed up calculations for heat input (kJ) and travel speed (IPM) during in-process weld monitoring for critical welds and Weld Procedure Qualification. The InProcess Calculator combines calculator and stopwatch functions with reduced manual entry for formula calculations and easy arc-time live updates to the calculations with one click. This streamlined approach reduces error and allows for faster and easier reporting and timely feedback during the welding process. The InProcess Calculator is a great tool for Welders, Foremen, Engineers, Quality Inspectors, CWI’s and Educators Key Features 1. IPM (Inches Per Minute) Travel Speed Calculator (Also will work with Metric) 2. Joules/Inch (Heat Input) Calculator (Also will work with Metric) 3. Four individual stop watches that can be run simultaneously for timing multiple welders 4. Store and recall calculations in a Weld Monitor Log and label results with pertinent identifying information such as “Weld Number”, “Pass”, “Filler”, “Welder ID” and “Line Number” as well as a “Notes” field. Simple, intuitive layout Stay focused without notifications or overwhelming features Fully offline – your data never leaves your device Disclaimer: The information provided in this app is for general use only.

About

Weld Heat Input

Features
Read full description

Weld Heat Input helps welders, inspectors, and fabrication teams calculate practical starting-reference heat input values without spreadsheets, paper notes, or a network connection. Use it to: - calculate heat input from voltage, current, travel speed, and process efficiency - view results in kJ/mm, kJ/cm, and kJ/in - switch between metric and imperial unit systems - apply built-in process efficiency presets or enter a custom factor - save local setups and recent calculations on your iPhone Why people buy Weld Heat Input: - faster than checking handbook notes or ad-hoc spreadsheets in the field - more focused than broad welding suite apps - paid once, with no ads, no account, and no tracking - built for offline shop-floor and job-site use Important: Results are starting references only. Always confirm procedure requirements, engineering review, applicable code, and inspection expectations before welding.
