The seminar served as a platform to promote Japan’s latest high-precision welding technology into India. The eminent faculty included Prof Kazuhiro Ito (Joining & Welding Research Institute – JWRI, Osaka University, Japan), who delivered valuable lecture on Microstructural & Topological Modification of Fusion welds for Mechanical property improvement and Mr Masaharu Sato, Japan Welding Engineering Society (JWES ,Japan), who covered topics including the importance of welding quality control, certification systems as practiced in Japan. With an aim to support ‘Make in India’ vision, this initiative is expected to foster the growth of personnel engaged in the manufacturing sector, Welders and Welding Technologists in particular.

Expressing his views on the occasion, Mr Masahide Sato referred to Japanese Prime Minister Mr Abe’s visit to India on 13 – 15 Sept 2017 and re-iterated Japan’s strong support for initiatives such as “Make in India”, “Digital India”, “Skill India”” and “Start-up India”.

Stressing the need for advanced Technology infusion along with Skill development he added “Application of advanced intelligent welding machines which synergise with the Skill of Welders to achieve superior Quality Welds with higher productivity, as being the next big thing of the future for Indian industry”.

Mr Sudhir Gurtoo stated in his address about Japanese technology being an ideal example of best manufacturing practice giving world “zero defect” principle. He also stressed that “Wedding” is most important event in one’s life and “Welding” is most important event in metal working technology and both must be handled with care.

Mr Uday Raykar mentioned that Pune is the city of technocrats and they are more than willing to adopt latest technology in welding to produce goods of international standard.

Arc welding seminar 3There were 140 participants from different companies like Bajaj Auto, Mahindra, Thyssenkrupp, Tata Motors, Thermax, Volkswagen, Cummins and various other MSME units and faculties from technical institutes like COEP, several ITI’s and many other engineering colleges.
