An unusual Notice!
For a few days I was racking my brain to work out why it would be required (not wanting to look foolish by asking) but eventually my curiosity won out and I had to ask one of the people that I was working with.
The company that I was working with supplied high quality ingots where the metal was being used to make blades for aircraft engines and they were advised by one of their customers that they needed to enforce this. I then asked why this would be a requirement and was told that there was an accident investigation that concluded that a single ball from a ball point pen was included in the blade and that caused the blade to fracture causing the accident.
3 things are certain in life….
- Death (a little dark I know)
- Taxes
- You have never seen it all
That’s it for now

Bite Size - Weld Log Module
The Weld Log module enables Companies to track welding carried out on a casting (unique ID/Serial Number), by Job Number or Part Number. This will record the welder name, position of the weld on the casting, type or welding rods used, batch(s) of weld rod, quantity (& Weight) of rods used. A weld map, or multiple maps if tracked by job or part, can also be attached to show visually where each weld occurred. The welder will have access to the welding specifications stored against the part to make sure the weld falls within one of the specifications.
