There is a noticeable increase in demand for training courses on welding and laying polyethylene (PE 80, PE 100 and PE-Xa) pipes and fittings for gas and water lines. The SKZ Plastics Centre is responding to this with an expanded range of in-house training courses for skilled workers – particularly in the context of current infrastructure projects related to the energy transition.
The training courses focus on proven methods such as heating coil and heating element butt welding of PE pipes and fittings. These methods are used in gas and water supply systems and in the laying of cable protection pipes, among other things. Participants learn not only how to carry out the work professionally, but also the relevant standard requirements and measures for quality assurance and documentation.
In addition to practical training on modern welding equipment, there is a special focus on process-reliable execution, error minimisation through systematic working and understanding the material-specific properties of PE 80, PE 100 and PE-Xa.
Shaping the energy transition with plastics technology
A key driver of the rising demand is large-scale projects such as the SuedLink route. During the construction of the underground power line, numerous supply lines must be laid or protected – with a correspondingly high demand for qualified specialists. The proper processing of PE pipe systems is of crucial importance here.
‘In view of the increasing shortage of skilled workers in the construction and supply sector, practice-oriented training courses are becoming increasingly important. With our tailor-made in-house training courses, we offer an effective solution for providing targeted further training for employees and keeping in-house expertise up to date with the latest technology,’ says Andreas Grzeskowiak, site manager at SKZ in Peine.
In-house training courses for tailor-made further training
In-house training courses enable companies to train several employees at the same time – either on site or at a location of their choice. The content is individually tailored to the respective operational requirements. On request, the training courses can also be conducted in English or with interpreter support – ideal for internationally active companies or teams with a multilingual workforce.
