Mechanical joint-integrity training courses for the CPI

The Academy of Joint Integrity (www.academyofjointintegrity.com) has achieved approval from the Institution of Chemical Engineers (IChemE) for a suite of theory and practical training programs to support technicians and engineers in the chemical process industries (CPI). In addition to its established ECITB-accredited courses and CPD-accredited training courses covering the management of the integrity of flanged bolted connections, the Academy now provides five training modules approved by the IChemE. Designed specifically for the CPI, the training programs cover disciplines such as hand torque/hydraulically torque/hydraulic tensioning of flange joints and bolted connections. Training can be offered at the Academy’s seven U.K. locations, as well as delivery on-site at customer facilities, by utilizing the unique Flange Assembly Demonstration Unit (FADU). The Academy, which is part of this company’s global sealing industry specialists, supports industry with a comprehensive suite of joint integrity and sealing expertise. This includes a range of engineering services, such as technical consultations, engineering drawings, failure mode analysis and latest flange integrity calculations to EN1591. — The Flexitallic Group, Inc., Houston
