In this whitepaper, THIELMANN engineers have examined the mechanical characteristics of both two and three-welded seam containers to determine overall product integrity. To obtain an in-depth understanding of the durability of each container they also performed a series of tests, including, edge impact tests, volume increase under pressure analysis and bursting test behavior. Once complete, a unanimous conclusion was reached that: the best welding seam is the one you never need to make. **Please complete the form below to download your complimentary copy of this whitepaper to your device.** [ DOWNLOAD ](https://www.thielmann.com/en/knowledge-base/sic-welded-seams#til-contact-form) ## DOWNLOAD YOUR PAPERS COMPLETE THIS FORM TO GET IMMEDIATE ACCESS TO THE DOCUMENT YOU REQUESTED ### RELATED ARTICLES As one of the world’s leading manufacturer of stainless steel containers, THIELMANN has accumulated significant expertise across a wide range of industries over many years.Our experts regularly compile educational material and analyses such as our Whitepapers and Case Studies, which are an excellent way to share in our knowledge and expertise and to find out more about our industry, product and application-specific insights and experience.We invite you to peruse our informative material and welcome any questions or enquiries you may have.
