Academy
We want to contribute to your success! Our Academy combines flange assembly training, individual training and learning formats on the latest developments in sealing technology under one roof – certified • online • live. We take care of everything you need for growth, exactly where you need it.
Certified Training #
Our TÜV-certified flange assembly training in accordance with DIN EN 1591-4:2013-12 is the foundations for risk mitigation. Incorrectly assembled flange connections pose a real danger and are one of the main reasons for leakage: Consequences can include the risk of explosion, environmental pollution and production losses. Assembly expertise is essential to counteract these risks. We prepare you both in terms of theory and practical applications, with training and examination materials according to a standard-compliant syllabus. Once you have successfully completed the basic qualification, you will receive a certificate according to DIN EN 1591-4, and you’ll also have the opportunity to take additional modules.
The training is particularly suitable for bolting fitters, their supervisors, responsible engineers and technical managers who have to assemble and maintain connections in pressurized systems in critical applications.
