First issued in 1911, the Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code is a set of universally-recognized safety standards developed by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers that regulate the design, manufacture, installation, inspection, and care of boilers, nuclear components, and other pressure vessels. Section IX of this code relates specifically to the qualification of welders, welding operators, brazers, and brazing operators and the procedures they employ in welding and brazing these items.
This is a new qualification for Baker Industries, which has become a leading provider of CNC machining, fabrication, and additive manufacturing to the oil and energy industry in recent years, and strengthens the company's already extensive portfolio of qualifications and certifications.
