Material Certs module

MTR traceability without the binder

Upload a material test report; Piping.Tools reads the heat number, matches it to a spec, and links it to every weld and BOM item that uses it.

  • Bulk PDF upload with heat-number extraction
  • Automatic spec match against the project material list
  • Mismatch alerts before the weld is made
  • Linked to welds, BOM items, and turnover packs

Bulk-upload the binder

Drop a folder of MTR PDFs in. Each one is parsed for heat number, spec, dimensions, and supplier, then matched against the project material list — and flagged where it does not.

Caught before it ships

When a welder logs a weld that uses an unverified or mismatched heat, Piping.Tools surfaces the issue immediately. No more discovering an MTR mismatch during the turnover pack review.

What you get

Spec matching

Automatic comparison against the project material list catches mismatches at upload time.

Mismatch alerts

A red badge on the cert and the weld means an inspector or QC engineer sees it immediately.

Always linked

Click a weld; see the MTR. Click an MTR; see every weld that consumed it.

Frequently asked questions

What MTR formats are supported?

Standard supplier PDFs are supported. Heat number, spec, dimensions, and supplier name are extracted automatically; you can review and correct any field before the cert is verified.

How does spec matching work?

Piping.Tools compares the cert’s spec, grade, and dimensions to the project material list. Anything that does not match is flagged for review before the cert is marked Verified.

Where do MTRs show up in the rest of the project?

MTRs are referenced from welds, BOM items, and turnover packs. Inspectors can navigate from a single weld to its MTR (or vice versa) in one click.
