Heavy Commercial Weld Testing

What does the course entail?

On site testing and training for UK mainland with national coverage. This reduces down time, overnight expenses and the candidate is tested on his own equipment that he uses every day on the vehicles he welds.

Stanners specialised services have a dedicated team of CSWIP qualified inspectors to carry out BS4872 Part one/two Heavy Commercial Weld Testing.

Our weld inspectors are recognised and accepted by major manufacturers including BMW, Mercedes VW, Audi, Vauxhall and Porsche. All our BS certificates are recognised for quality of testing and accepted for all manufacturer audits.

Pre- training courses are available but our inspectors will alway try to guide the candidate through the test within the guidelines set by the BSI.

For heavy commercial, we usually recommend a test done in 6mm plate, covering up to 12mm. This is a selection of joints and weld positions covering different possibilities to weld a vehicle, tailored to the sites requirements and needs.

The tested welds are sent away to a 3rd party UKAS accredited test centre for testing to ensure competency.
