MM Tech Seminar Mexico
Moulding Machines hold Tech Seminar in Mexico
At the end of October, Kurtz Ersa México, S.A. de C.V. held a well-attended technology seminar in Monterrey on the topics of expanded polystyrene (EPS) and expanded polypropylene (EPP). Almost 100 participants from all over Mexico, Bolivia, Colombia and the USA took part in the two-day event.
The training was led by process engineer Eusebio Calva, who has more than 30 years of industry experience – the focus of the event was to give participants a deeper understanding of their EPP/EPS moulding processes. Participants learned about the chemical properties of their raw materials, the way in which pre-expansion occurs, and the aging process of materials. Kurtz machines were also used to discuss moulding and block moulding in detail – including the range of services offered and the impact of the raw materials on the quality of the end product.
Grown knowledge about Kurtz Moulding Machines
After the successful conclusion of the seminar, the participants left Monterrey with significantly increased know-how about Kurtz Moulding Machines, related processes and the variables that can influence the quality of the end products. In this context, the correct elimination of problems and the optimal performance of necessary maintenance work on Kurtz machines were also important. “It was a great opportunity to meet, share knowledge and respond to the needs of our customers,” said Marcelino Espelosin, General Manager of the Americas, expressing his satisfaction that Kurtz customers are using the knowledge they have gained to improve processes and the quality of their moulds.
