Addressing Skills Gap

The welding industry currently faces a workforce crisis. Although there is a steady flow of applicants seeking work, few employers are finding what they actually need: workers with the right specializations and certifications to perform the skills that are missing on job sites. D&H Sécheron Welding Institute has instructed over 2000 welders since its inception in 1998.

Research and Development Centre

D&H Sécheron Electrodes Private Limited has been among the first Indian companies in setting up an independent R&D Centre alongside the main factory at Indore, Madhya Pradesh. R&D Centre was recognized by the Department of Science and Technology of "The Government of India" in 1979. The Department of Science and Technology has been renewing the recognition based on the developments in the organisation.

NABL Accredited Testing Facilities

R&D Centre has its own testing laboratory accredited by NABL, (National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories), Department of Science and Technology, India. The laboratory is equipped with latest equipments for carrying out destructive and non-destructive tests like mechanical testing, hardness testing, impact testing down to -196°C, metallographic studies, corrosion testing and radiographic testing. All raw materials are tested before use in the manufacture of consumables. Each batch of consumables undergoes various process control stages and final testing of the weld metal in the laboratory to ensure the best quality is delivered consistently.

Following equipments are used in the laboratory to achieve the objectives:
 * Spectrometer
 * Mechanical testing machines for Tensile and Hardness properties
 * Impact test down to -196°C (ASTME-23)
 * Metallographic test
 * Corrosion test including advanced tests facility to conduct as per TM-01-77-96 (SSCS) and TM-02-84-96 (HIC) to meet NACE Specification requirements
 * Micro Hardness
 * Diffusible hydrogen test apparatus
 * Wear testing machine (as per ASTMG 65)
 * Non destructive test
 * Well equipped heat treatment facilities
 * Shadowgraphy
 * Broaching Machine
 * Creep-testing Machine

Welding consumables manufactured here have been elaborately tested and approved by inspection agencies such as Bureau of Indian Standards, Research Design and Standards Organisation, Engineers India Limited, Projects & Development India Limited, Lloyd's Register of Shipping, Bureau Veritas, American Bureau of Shipping, Det Norske Veritas AS, Indian Revenue Service and the Director of Boilers. The procedures also are established in accordance to ISO 9001:2000 and other international standards.
