Welding License
With our Welding Course you are guaranteed to achieve the Welding License valid and internationally recognized according to UNI EN ISO 9606 and UNI EN 287 standards.
What is the Welding License?
The Welding License is the most important certification a welder can aspire to; it is needed for job hunting, to participate in State or Armed Forces calls, and even to take jobs if you are self-employed.
Expiration of Welding License
The Welder's License or Welder's Patent if taken by a private individual is nominal and personal and if specially renewed is valid for life.
Is a Welder's License required to work?
It is the first thing companies ask for before hiring you. È required by law for many engineering sectors and types of production, such as Refineries, Petrochemical, Construction, Plant Engineering for Pharmaceutical, Energy, Naval, etc.
Validity of Welding Patents
They are recognized only if they are issued by Authorized International Certifying Bodies.
Our Welder Training Center, through the Welder Course, prepares you to pass the Welding License exam issued by the best Italian Certification Body.
It is not just a certificate of attendance
The Welder's License is not to be confused with the various and of little value certificates of attendance, certificates of participation and patents in general issued by Schools, Private Technical Institutes or Companies or even worse mere individuals.
Where are the Welding courses held?
We organize Welder Courses in all Regions and several Cities in Italy upon reaching a minimum number of 5 trainees.
At our Main Office, which is a truly large Manufacturing Workshop but also a large Welding Campus, the Welder Course is held throughout the year.
You can take one of our Intensive Welding Courses and we will give you Free room and board for the duration of the course.
At the end of the course we will provide you with Services that will help you find work as a welder.
Welder Course Price
The price of Welding Courses, depends on your goals:
If you need a Welding License and which one you want to get.
Which Welding process you want to learn and consequently which Welding Course to take.
If you are starting from scratch and need to conduct the complete Welding Course.
If you just need lessons to implement your skills.
If you only need to take the Welding License exam, because you are already a welder.
What is Welding?
Welding is the process of joining two pieces into one.
Welding can be done with different processes and machinery, depending on the specifications required by the project.
The first essential activity to be carried out before welding is caulking, which is the preparation of the 2 edges of the joint to be welded.
If the 2 edges of the joint are heated to the point of fusing together with the input of a homogeneous material, it is called Autogenous Welding, while if a heterogeneous filler material is fused on the two joint edges, it is called Heterogeneous Welding.
For perfect welding, the joint to be welded must be protected from oxidation and slag, through oxygen deprivation. For more complex welding jobs, heat treatment is usually carried out, which removes internal stresses due to the cooling of the post-weld workpiece.
The new welding machines allow welding of many materials: steel, aluminum, copper, cast iron, etc.
Welding, may have defects and may have been caused by several factors: by the welder, materials used, or techniques performed.
Among the various welding defects we have: Notches, cracks, sticking, blowholes, porosity, lack of penetration, etc.
Our Welding Courses
TIG Welder Course
our TIG Welder Course with issuance of the TIG Welding License
The TIG Welder's License is valid and recognized internationally, in fact the training follows the international UNI EN ISO 4063 - 141 standard and the U.S. GTAW (Gas Tungsten Arc Weldin) standard.
The TIG Welder Course teaches you how to TIG weld professionally. The TIG Welder is widely used in Metalmechanical companies building and assembling chemical, energy, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, food plants, for the construction of aqueducts, oil and gas pipelines, in refineries, platforms, etc.
Tig Welding - also known as "Tungsten Inert Gas"
TIG Welding is a welding process whose heat necessary to melt the flaps and filler material, if any, is produced by an electric arc that strikes between an electrode that does notmelt and the workpiece.
Because the electrode does not melt, a rod (or wire) must be used to deposit the filler material, it can be used for welding small elements or thin thicknesses without filler material. The protective atmosphere required to allow the arc to operate and to prevent contamination of the bath by elements in the environment is provided by an inert gas (usually pure Argon tributary from the flashlight).
The most common TIG welding applications are manual, although robotic versions exist. Given the particular stability of the arc, the small size of the heat source, and the possibility of using without depositing filler material, the TIG process is widely used for making high-quality welds on heat-sensitive materials.
TIG welding, is widely used to weld small thicknesses (all TIG) or for larger thicknesses to make the first TIG pass of the workpiece and then given the limited productivity of TIG, electrode filler welding is done. For the very reason that many times a TIG weld needs the electrode filler welds, it is recommended that you choose a course that teaches you how to weld by both TIG and Electrode.
ITAFORMA offers you the opportunity to acquire all the skills you need through two intensive TIG welder courses.
Electrode Welder Course
our Electrode Welder Course for the issuance of the Electrode Welding License
Our Electrode Welding Course for Electrode Welder License, is valid and internationally recognized, as it has a Welder Trainingprogram and a welding exam that follows the international welding standards EN 287/ISO 9606.
Coated electrode arc welding is a manual autogenous welding process that takes advantage of the heat generated by an arc striking between a fusible coated electrode and the workpiece.
This process is one of the most commonly used in welding, mainly because of the advantage of its versatility. In fact, it allows joints to be made in any position, to be welded in the shop or in confined and confined areas (e.g., double bottoms of ships, interior of equipment, internal parts of structures) and even, with some precautions against drafts and rain, in the Shipyard.
When the generator is not easily transportable, power cables can be long enough and still be easily handled. With Electrode welding, almost all ferrous and nonferrous metals can be welded; it is not recommended for aluminum and copper, while zinc, lead, tin, and titanium cannot be welded at all.
The operational limitations of the process consist of limited productivity, as each worn electrode must be replaced with a new one and slag must be removed from the deposited metal after each pass.
Our Electrode Welder Course is 80 intensive hours of welding in 15 days.
ITAFORMA offers you the opportunity to acquire all the skills you need through two intensive Electrode Welder courses.
Mig Mag Continuous Wire Welder Course
Our Mig Mag Continuous Wire Welder Course, with International Welding License
Our Continuous Wire Welding Course has a training program and a final exam for Continuous Wire Welder License that follows the international standard UNI EN ISO 4063: 2001.
Continuous Wire Welding represents one of the most applied welding processes, mainly because of the highproductivity that is achieved due to the high currents and the large amount of material that can be deposited continuously and without interruption.
Continuous Wire Arc Welding is a set of welding processes in which heat is generated by an arc striking between a fused wire and the workpiece .
The Wire performs both the function of an electrode and the function of bringing material to the joint, as the passage of current causes it to melt, and it is continuously fed into the welding zone by means of a gun. Such Wire can be "solid" or "cored."
The protective atmosphere required to allow operation and to prevent contamination of the bath by air can be provided by a gas tributary to the flashlight ( welding with gas protection) or directly by the flux cored wire, as is also the case for coated electrodes (welding without gas protection).
This welding process can also be employed either in semiautomatic mode, when the welder handles the flashlight, or in automatic or robotic mode, when the flashlight is moved through appropriate systems (motorized beams, welding robots etc.).
Our Mig Mag Continuous Wire Welder Course lasts for 100 hours in 20 intensive welding days.
ITAFORMA offers you the opportunity to acquire all the skills you need through two intensive Mig Mag Continuous Wire Welder courses.
