Happy Welder's Day! How do professionals work at Hyundai plants in Almaty?

The welding shop is a special pride of the entities. Let's have a brief discussion of the Hyundai Trans Kazakhstan plant.
About 50 welders and four panel beaters work here. We weld a car body using equipment manufactured by OBARA (South Korea).

How to become a welder? Before starting body welding operations on their own, a new coming specialist is supervised by a foreman and undergoes training, studies the technological process.

A welder's first steps at the HTK plant begin with assistance in operations involving welding tongs. This helps to study the welding geometry. And only after completing all the stages and passing a kind of ‘exam’, a young welder is admitted to the main job.

After welding, a panel beater takes over. This is a specialist who is engaged in straightening metals and materials. The specialist levels the surface, brings them to the desired geometric dimensions.

Then the body of a future car is subjected to a quality control under the HMC standards. Then it goes to the paint shop.

Usually, they say "Don't look at welding". But today is a special day. Look at welding works in our photo gallery − it's beautiful and safe. And don't forget to congratulate your fellow welders.
