BPW Transpec welding team pass with flying colours

All seven members of BPW Transpec's welding team have successfully passed the transport equipment manufacturer's welding standards test.
BPW Transpec Product Manager, Steve Civelle, said the nature of the equipment that BPW Transpec manufactures, as well as its high durability and reliability standards, means specific welding knowledge is required.
"Because we manufacture trailer axles and suspensions, if the welding isn't done correctly, cracks could appear in the product," he said.
The company decided last year to unify their welders by coming up with an in-house standardised test and qualification. The test included a hands-on demonstration and safety quiz.
The welders were assessed by an external provider.
To recognise their achievement, the welders were presented with certificates.
"They were really pleased," said Civelle. "They all passed and it's been acknowledged that they’ve achieved a high standard and we appreciate their work."
In other news, for over five years Hayes Spraying has chosen BPW Transpec for its wide range of manufactured boom sprayers, allowing it to continue building quality sprayers for its customers that are very durable and simple to operate.
