The know-how component is crucial for the production of quality pipes with such high-technology equipment as filament winding plants. The design of products according to the clients’ requirements with respect of international standards, the winding machine setup for production, a correct testing and handling of products, all these are determined by a correct application of the know-how indispensable due to the complexity of the composites manufacturing.
That is why alongside with the equipment supplies VEM performs the transfer of the know-how related to the design, production, handling and application of pipes made on VEM machines. The passage of this bulk of knowledge is done in the form of documentation including the design, production, testing, handling and product installation manuals and handbooks together with a license covering the use of such know-how. To these belong:

ENGINEERING HANDBOOK
PIPE DESIGNS SOFTWARE W. HANDBOOK
MANUFACTURING HANDBOOK
INSTALLATION HANDBOOK
QUALITY CONTROL AND TESTING HANDBOOK
RAW MATERIALS HANDBOOK
TECHNO–COMMERCIAL HANDBOOK

The transfer of the know-how documents is done alongside with the training of the customer’s personnel which secures a practical assimilation of the concepts. The know-how understanding and implementation are checked during the commissioning of the plant under VEM supervision.
