We TIG weld and test to customer requirements. This job was a run of more than 100 pressure vessels.

The brief

The vessels needed a clean finish inside as well as out, and every one had to pass inspection before it left the workshop.

How we set it up

Each vessel was set up on a rotary jig for welding.

A full gas purge protected the inside of the joint while it was welded. That is what gives a blemish-free internal finish to match the outside.

The result

Every vessel was inspected - 100% of the run, not a sample.

Full-purge TIG sits alongside laser cutting, bending and forming in the same workshop, so a welded assembly can be made from the first blank to the final weld under one roof.
