This standard provides requirements for the qualification of robotic arc welding personnel. This standard does not prevent a manufacturer, fabricator, or contractor from continuing to qualify robotic welding personnel according to other standards.

Qualification is limited to those performance variables provided in Tables 1 through 4 in this standard. There are three different levels in which qualification can be achieved. The three levels acronyms are Level 1—Certified Robotic and Automated Welding Operator (CRAW-O), Level 2—Certified Robotic and Automated Welding Technician (CRAW-T), and Level 3—Certified Robotic and Automated Welding Engineer (CRAW-E).
