Safe rail transport is in the public interest throughout Europe – and welding plays an active role. Therefore, the harmonization of welding for railway vehicles according to EN 15085 is proceeding. However, a clearly defined standard alone does not sufficiently influence the quality of welding on railway vehicles but a standardized European system of quality assurance does. The latter is a key task for the European Committee for Welding on Railway Vehicles (ECWRV). Manufacturers, operators, national safety authorities as well as manufacturer certification bodies from more than 20 countries are all currently members of the ECWRV. On May 7 and 8 ECWRV and SLV Halle together with GSI SLV Türkiye will host the event on location in Antalya or online, bringing together all interested in the exchange.
EN 15085 online database supports transparency and harmonization
In this context, the online database EN 15085 is crucial as it provides transparency regarding the validity of certificates as well as technical information. Every participant of the project needs to be up-to-date with the topic. This can be achieved by their exchange of experience such as in technical conferences about the latest developments in welding technology, the welded constructions and standards for railway vehicles.
Registration is now open.
