Welder Certification Program
Chemline’s Welder Certification Program butt fusion qualifies students to weld various plastics using various welding machines in accordance with ASME B31.1, B31.3 and CSA B51. The Welder Certification socket fusion Program allows students to weld plastics, perform basic visual checks of welds, and understand basic piping layout. Certification documents such as the Fusion electro fusion Procedure Specification (FPS), Fusing Procedure Qualification Record (PQR), Fusing Machine Operator Qualification Record (FPQ), are used to facilitate the official registration of pressure piping systems with local authorities for total quality control during projects.
