Take a systematic approach to improving quality and increasing profits with Energas, an Air Liquide company. Over the past decade, Airgas and Air Liquide has created a database based on the more than 2,500 audits completed with customers studying metal fabrication shops via the Welding Efficiency Analysis Program (WEAP). The WEAP collects and analyses key inputs about your welding operations to help you realise where you can make efficiency and process improvements resulting in real cost savings.
As part of the program our welding experts will work with you to develop and implement a continuous improvement plan. After the implementation stage, we’ll help you stay on track by monitoring your progress using our dashboard and reporting support tools.
Are you operating your welding processes at your optimum?
The preview of what you can learn about your operation from a Welding Efficiency Analysis as well as how your operation compares to the industry average.
WEAP provides you with insight into how your operation is performing and helps you quantify the real costs of any inefficiencies you may have. We can analyse your operation to help you evaluate cost to weld, travel speed, over welding, gas to wire ratio, MIG consumable efficiencies, plasma consumables efficiencies, operator factor and much more.
As a business owner or manager responsible for delivering quality to your customers while managing your bottom line, you have to consider all of the variables:
- Is your process as efficient as it could be?
- Are you producing the quality that your customers expect?
- Is there an opportunity to produce more and spend less on welding costs?
Answering these questions with certainty will help you ensure your operation continues to succeed by assuring your customers receive a quality product while controlling your production costs.
