A
welding system (2) and a method for transferring specific data for producing a welded joint (7) between
welding controls (11 to; 21 to 24; 31, 32) of the
welding system (2) are provided. The welding
system (2) has at least two welding controllers (11 to 13; 21 to 24; 31, 32) each configured to store
welding joint data (1311 to 1317) for producing the weld joint (7), at least one welding tool (41) for producing a weld joint (7) on at least one workpiece (5; 5, 6) under control of one of the at least two welding controllers (11 to 13; 21 to 24; 31, 32) on the basis of the stored
welding joint data (1311 to 1317), and a
communication device (15; 25) for communicating with the at least two welding controllers (11 to 13; 21 to 24; 31, 32), wherein the
communication device (15;25) is designed to initiate a transmission of
welding joint data (1311 to 1317) stored on the
communication device (15; 25) from a source welding control (11) of the at least two welding controls (11 to 13; 21 to 24; 31, 32) to a target welding control (12, 13; 21 to 24; 31, 32) of the at least two welding controls (11 to 13; 21 to 24; 31, 32).
