Welding in plant and vessel construction

Reliable joints, tested quality and workmanship that complies with standards: when it comes to welding, Albrecht stands for the highest level of process reliability and certified production. Precise fit. Time-saving. In full compliance with all standards and quality requirements.

Welding in the manufacture of vessels and equipment

Certified welding technology for complex structures

The welding of metallic materials is one of Albrecht’s core areas of expertise. Whether TIG welding, MIG/MAG welding, electrode welding, submerged arc welding or orbital welding – we manufacture welded structures, vessels and much more to drawing specifications for demanding applications. 

Our welding technology is designed for safety-critical components and meets the most stringent regulatory requirements.

Performance Profile, Processes & Applications

  • TIG/MIG/MAG/electrode/submerged arc/orbital
  • Welding of steel, stainless steel, aluminium and special materials
  • Mechanical and manual weld preparation
  • TÜV-certified welders
  • Non-destructive testing: RT/PT/VT/UT/MT

We weld steel structures, pipework and sheet metal components, pressure vessels, heat exchangers, columns, storage tanks and much more.

Certified welding in accordance with DIN EN 1090

Manufactured in accordance with AD 2000 and the Pressure Equipment Directive (PED)

Approved welding procedures and qualified personnel

High process reliability for safety-critical components

Welding as a process at Albrecht

In-house processing

In-house processing

Welding is fully integrated into our manufacturing process. Components are prepared, welded, machined, inspected and, where necessary, blasted, pickled or painted in-house.

Through a combination of cutting processes, press braking, milling, drilling and surface treatment, complete assemblies are produced without the need for external interfaces – efficiently and with process reliability.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about welding in plant and vessel construction

Which welding processes are used?

Depending on the material and requirements, we use TIG, MIG and MAG welding processes. Particularly when TIG welding stainless steel, we ensure clean, precise welds for pressure-bearing or visually demanding applications. The choice of process is made on a project-by-project basis in accordance with technical specifications.

Is it possible to weld pressure vessels?

Yes. The welding of pressure vessels is carried out in accordance with applicable regulations such as AD 2000 and the Pressure Equipment Directive (PED) 2014/68/EU. Qualified personnel, approved procedures and documented processes ensure that the work is carried out safely and in compliance with the relevant standards.

Are welded joints inspected?

Yes, depending on the requirements, visual inspections and other testing procedures are carried out. Weld inspection and quality assurance form an integral part of our manufacturing process, particularly for safety-critical components in plant and vessel construction.

Is it possible to combine this with mechanical machining?

Yes. Welded components undergo further processing in-house – for example, by milling, drilling, grinding, blasting or pickling. This results in complete, ready-to-assemble sub-assemblies with no external interfaces.
