MDESIGN Seminar
Welded joints - Quality design
in practice
Increase the quality and efficiency of your welded constructions, while at the same time
minimize the risk of damage at the same time. Attend our specially designed
seminar and learn everything you need to know about welding-compatible design,
standard-compliant welding drawings and quality assurance in accordance with current standards.
These topics await you...
Welded joints are used in mechanical engineering, plant engineering,
rail vehicle, pressure vessel, vehicle construction and many other
and many other industries.
It is therefore essential for designers and engineers to have
extensive knowledge of the design of welded constructions
and their quality control.
