We provide Weld Procedure Specification (WPS) tests to verify manufacturers are fully qualified to perform welding operations in line with specific codes and procedures. Our testing simulates real-world fabrication conditions — from equipment and preparation to preheating and heat treatment.
Tests We Perform
- Destructive & Non-Destructive Testing
- Tensile Tests
- Bend Tests
- Hardness & Micro Hardness Tests
Standards We Follow
- AWS D1.1
- API 1104
- ASME
We use advanced testing and analysis to examine weld samples, pinpoint failure causes, and provide detailed root-cause reports to improve quality and prevent future issues.
- Failure Root Cause Analysis
- Sample Preparation
- Mounted & Polished Cross Sections
- Digital Imaging
- High-Magnification Analysis by SME
- Macroscopic Examination

Our weld training program is designed as a combination of hands-on welding experience and classroom theory. A great way to learn welding for all levels of experience.
We account for many individual skill levels, from the beginner to the advanced welder. Welding is a skill to be developed, and at Precision, we focus on individual practice to attain that skill. Each of our students gets hands-on training every hour for the entirety of their course. We believe this aids in our ability to consistently produce highly skilled welders that are more than qualified to enter into the industrial workforce.
