Abstract

This paper make a detailed survey and research about the real situation about Chinese welding industry, and the future cooperation suggestion between Finland and China in this area. This topic was approached by searching for the latest and most accurate information through interviews, site visits, websites, books and promotional materials. The site visits are the most important. The destination cities in China cover a large range from northern to the southwestern areas in China. More than 15 professional welding factories or factories which have a welding workshop were visited, and based on discussions and an investigation in those factories; detailed and reliable data was collected. By using and analyzing that information, a general profile of modern Chinese welding factories was generated.
