Certification of Welding and Brazing Procedures
The qualification aims to verify the operator’s ability to control and adjust the welding unit
in fully mechanized and automatic processes, and to qualify them according to the validity
fields specified by the reference standards used for certification.
The qualification of welding operators can be conducted in accordance with the following
international standard:
UNI EN ISO 14732
Services Offered
