Welding inspection
Inspection of the welding work is crucial in order to obtain the proper quality. FORCE Technology holds many years’ experience in this field and is able to assist you.
Inspection during daily welding work and at major welding projects is so important that it should be performed by personnel that holds the necessary qualifications and is capable of handling the dialogue with welders and other personnel.
Welding technology inspection for owners and contractors
When your company is handling major projects with requirements for third party welding inspections, there will often be a need for welding inspectors and this is when your company can rely on FORCE Technology’s welding inspectors.
They all have certificates from one of the international welding educations from EWF/IIW and many years’ experience with inspection and are familiar with most applied welding standards and specifications.
Welding coordination within the company
It is necessary that welding companies are in contact with, and can make use of, a qualified welding coordinator in order to live up to the increasing demands of directives and customers. If your company does not have or need a full time employed welding coordinator, you can “rent” a welding coordinator with FORCE Technology.
The welding coordinator’s function will usually be laid down in a written agreement, which may be displayed during external audits of your company. Focus areas should be described in this agreement often refererring to ISO 14731 ”Welding coordination – Tasks and responsibilities”.
Such an agreement will also include conditions as to the presence of the welding coordinator. This could be once a week or for specific projects, according to agreement.
