Welding Procedure Qualification (WPQ)
Support in Welding Procedure Qualification (WPQ)
For companies wishing to qualify for EN 1090 or 3834 certification, it is mandatory to have one or more WPQs. Companies are often given assignments for which they do not have the correct WPQ. In such cases, SOMBROEK W.E. can help by taking and issuing the required qualifications. This process takes an average of one day. We log the welding process while the welder performs the required welding operations. The workpiece is then subjected to Non-Destructive Testing (NDT). If this is approved, Destructive Testing (DT) follows. Upon approval, the WPQ is issued in combination with the associated WPSs.
With SOMBROEK W.E. as your partner, you are assured of a professional and accurate approach, so that your company always meets the highest quality standards and is ready for any certification. In addition, we also have insurance for welding companies.
When your company wants to obtain or set up an EN 1090 or 3834 certification, we support you in implementing a Factory Production Control (FPC) system. This system, similar to a quality management system, makes your entire production process transparent and traceable. After successful implementation, an audit follows which, if successful, leads to obtaining, for example, an EN 1090 certificate. After obtaining certification, annual checks are necessary to ensure that everything continues to run smoothly. You can count on our services for this.
At SOMBROEK W.E., we offer flexible solutions without you having to hire us on a permanent basis. Once your company is certified, we work on an hourly rate basis. This way you get the support you need, exactly when you need it.
