The best way to get full value from Swagelok components is to learn the best way to select and install them. And the best way to acquire that knowledge is to let our in-house experts teach you. We have a wide variety of classes to pass along our expertise, starting with our Nov. 8 class in tube bending.
Tube bending is not a skill that is taught in schools or published in textbooks. It is a skill that is normally passed from a craftsman to his apprentice. When you learn from the experts at Swagelok Northern California, you never have to worry about whether a co-worker has taught you any bad habits. With guidance from our certified expert, you'll learn how to consistently make optimal tube bends, and do the work efficiently.
We start at the beginning: How to handle tubing without damaging it. We'll show you how to properly cut and debur the tubing as well as how to bend it. You'll learn how to calculate the length of tubing you need to get from Point A to Point B. That's especially important when you are using expansion loops and offsets, which we'll also cover.
Good craftsmanship not only saves money by reducing the amount of expensive scrap, it also improves fluid system performance.
The course has hand-on exercises as well as classroom instruction, so you'll be able to practice what you just learned.
Anyone who has to install tubing can benefit from this course: fabricators, contractors and technicians. But it's also valuable knowledge for people who design fluid systems: engineers and draftsmen. Anyone responsible for inspecting or maintaining a fluid system also needs to know if the job was done right: quality control personnel and safety engineers.
