Description

International Welding Engineer (IWE) and International Welding Inspector (IWI) specialised in solving complex welding problems in industrial manufacturing environments.

I support manufacturers facing welding defects, unstable welding processes and welding procedure issues that affect production quality, certification or delivery schedules.

My work focuses on identifying the root causes of welding failures and implementing practical technical solutions to restore stable and reliable welding operations.

Typical challenges I help solve

- recurring welding defects in production

- welding procedures that do not perform in real manufacturing conditions

- failed welding procedure qualifications (WPQR)

- welding quality problems in structural components

- technical welding issues affecting production efficiency

Services

- welding failure analysis and root cause investigation

- welding procedure optimisation (WPS / WPQR)

- welding process troubleshooting

- welding defect assessment and inspection

- technical support for welding coordination and compliance

I have experience supporting manufacturers working under standards such as

- EN 15085 and

- ISO 3834.

My objective is to quickly diagnose welding problems and deliver effective technical solutions that restore production stability and welding quality.
