against standards for their occupation. It also signifies that theCRAW Operator or Technician has demonstrated the capabilityof working with various codes, standards, and specifications.Since proof of active practice or re-examination is requiredevery three years, certification also signifies that the CRAWOperator or Technician is current with the welding industry.

AWS CRAW ExamLincoln Electric is a host site for the American Welding Society’s(AWS) Certified Robotic Arc Welder (CRAW) seminar andexamination. In the seminar you will be taught by a certifiedinstructor how to reference AWS code and prepare for the CRAW

exam. (Proctored by an AWS Certified Weld Inspector).

Seminar is limited to 8 attendees. You can register for the seminarand exam through Lincoln Electric Automation Division.

RequirementsContact Lincoln Electric Automation Division and downloadCRAW packet from http://www.aws.org/certification/CRAW.

Please Note: Detailed work history must be completed beforetesting. Not a Résumé.

Lincoln Electric CRAW Prep CourseThis course offered by the Lincoln Electric Automation Divisiongives you an extra 2 days of low cost preparation for the AWSCRAW exam. Included in the program are demonstrations/discussions of the various welding processes, a discussion andreview of AWS D16.1-4, and an overview of practice questions.It is offered the day before the exam.

JFLF OverviewThe James F. Lincoln Arc WeldingFoundation is a non-profit, weldingeducation organization founded in 1936to promote welding as a better method of joining metals and to promote welding asa career choice. Today numerous low costwelding educational textbooks, videos,DVDs, teaching aids and no cost periodicalsand technical papers are available throughthe Foundation.

In addition, the JFLF awards over $45,000in cash and prizes each year to the winnersof its welding design project contests, aswell as the state and national SkillsUSAwelding competition winners. See theirwebsite, www.jflf.org for details onspecific contest rules, regulations andapplication forms.

James F. Lincoln Foundation

The Arc Welding BookshelfThe James F. Lincoln Arc WeldingFoundation was created through a deedof trust “to encourage and stimulate

scientific interest in and scientific study,research and education in respect of thedevelopment of the arc welding industrythrough advance in the knowledge anddesign and practical application of thearc welding process.” As a contributionto scientific progress and to promoteindustrial progress through education,the Foundation produces and publishesbooks and other educational materialsas a non-profit service to the industry.

James F. Lincoln FoundationArc Welding BookshelfA Few of the Popular Textbooks and Videos

The Procedure Handbook of Arc Welding (PH)14th EditionPublished by The James F. Lincoln Arc Welding Foundation

With over 500,000 copies of previous editions published since 1933,the Procedure Handbook is considered by many to be the “Bible” of thearc welding industry. The hardbound book contains over 750 pages ofwelding information, techniques, procedures, photographs, drawingsand charts. Much of this material has never been included in any otherbook. A must for all welders, supervisors, engineers and designers.Many welding instructors will want to use the book as a reference forall students.

Metals and How to Weld Them (MHW)2nd Edition

by T.B. JEFFERSON and GORHAM WOODSThis book describes the internal structure of metals and its relationto mechanical and physical properties and weld ability. This dualpurpose textbook and reference manual is written in non-technicallanguage so students, welders, supervisors, engineers and educatorswill easily understand all data. The 400 page book is 6”x9” with goldembossed hard cover.

Arc Welded Projects IV (AP-IV) Published by The James F. Lincoln Arc Welding Foundation

The projects described in this 200 page book represent the range ofentries submitted in the James F. Lincoln Arc Welding Foundation AwardPrograms both as to the type and size of the project, and the nature of

the descriptive information included. Each project is detailed, includingprints and bills of material, so the do-it yourself person can understandand build these helpful projects. It also provides great ideas for weldingschool class projects. Arc Welding Projects II and III also available.
