seam weld(ing)
Explanation:
Surprisingly is a rendering on Google Translate ('good for seam welding').

Gullberg (specialist dictionary) påläggsvetsning; påsvetsning = surface or bead welding.

PS at our Central London T&I agency, there used to be one Russian, German & Spanish English (ship) welding & soldering magazine-translation applicant for every (Managing Director: 'useless') one thousand literary translation candidates applying for freelance work.

welding position


Explanation:
Try looking up "lägessvetsning" and you'll get some hits. It looks like we say this the other way round in English and there is a code for each welding position
