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...

Weldable design
in practice

Bring yourself up to date in terms of "static and dynamic loads" (production- and stress-appropriate).

Assessment of the quality of a welded construction

Take influencing factors into account as early as the development phase and implement targeted measures to ensure welding quality.

Avoid damage and optimize
welded constructions

Increase the reliability and service life of your welded construction with our specialist seminar.

Standardized welding drawings
according to ISO 2553

Learn how to define welding drawings in accordance with the most important ISO guidelines.

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.

 

Objectives of the seminar

Welded connections
  • Avoid weak points
    Recognize structural changes and notch effects and consider countermeasures
  • Cost efficiency
    Material and cost savings through optimized design practices
  • Increased safety
    Secure verifications in conjunction with optimizations
  • Practical examples
    Independent assessment and evaluation of welding situations
