Any chance you could find out when the Eider sea water lift pump is heading back out.. the previous one was B.E.R....?s29ttc wrote:Its mechanical engineering, I work for Weir Pumps in cathcart in Glasgow. Is now known as CLyde pumps since Jim McColl bought us over. I will qualify as a business technician. What basically happens is I train 6 mths in EK in milling turning fitting CAD maintance etc, then come up to Weirs do a year on shop floor in assembly and fitting and then the rest of my 4 year apprentiship in offices moving around the areas, draughting, CAD and solidworks, design, sales and marketing, custom engineering, service and spares etc. When your times out you can be offered a position in any department and this is where you will grow your skills. For instance I could become a draughtsmen or a sales engineering or a hydraulic design engineering depending where I am offered and also where I fight to get in myself.kenny wrote:What kind of engineering are you doing?

Re: Another Newbie (Lanarkshire) - Few pics of current Jalopy
I could have an ask about, not kind of pumps I have been dealing with really sea water lift pumps are a different department from the departments I have been involved in. Will enquire tomorrow and see who deals with them.Victor Meldrew wrote:Any chance you could find out when the Eider sea water lift pump is heading back out.. the previous one was B.E.R....?s29ttc wrote:Its mechanical engineering, I work for Weir Pumps in cathcart in Glasgow.

Erm had a quick look about doesnt seem to be that much info on that project that I can find. I am guessing they are due next year then? Dont quote me on that just taking a guess with what I found. Seems they are dealing with a guy Graham Marshall or something from Shell and the enquiry looks to be sent in mid april this year.Victor Meldrew wrote:Any chance you could find out when the Eider sea water lift pump is heading back out.. the previous one was B.E.R....?s29ttc wrote:Its mechanical engineering, I work for Weir Pumps in cathcart in Glasgow.
