I preformed quality assurance testing for pressure vessels. I oversaw certification of all welders. I discovered a loop hole/way to reduce the number of UL & PED certified welders needed on site 18 to 4. This resulted in a cost saving of over $40,000 annually. We had two identical 375,000 Amp resistance welders. The primary transformer inside one welder failed. The welders had different welding fixtures. In house I made new solid copper welding fixtures/tools to keep the factory running. This allowed the factory to limp rather than shut down because it is a single assembly line factory.
