    CALIBRATION CASE CALIWELD NORMATIVE REMINDER According to the EN1090 standard, a welding generator must undergo a control of its welding parameters. This check allows us to issue a «Valida- tion report». The following validation procedure is based on the reference standards EN 50504 and EN 60974-14. The objective of this procedure is to ensure a correct welding result that is reproducible over time.
