Valve Metallurgy for non-metallurgistsAbout this courseThis one day training course gives a technical insight into the materials and processes used to manufacture valves. It reviews metal and alloy options for all valve components and explains the manufacturing processes; including casting, forging, heat treatment, machining & surface coatings. Industry standards and specifications are explained, with a strong emphasis on the requirements of the oil & gas sector.
Course aimsThis course will enable sales personnel to communicate more effectively on a technical level, design engineers to optimise material & process selection and production managers to minimise the costs of manufacturing valves of the highest quality.
Who should attend?Professionals from all parts of your business who require a deeper understanding of the materials and technologies used for valve manufacture. Directors, marketing & sales, designers/specifiers, procurement and manufacturing managers.
