As we are starting to approach the countdown to the end of 2019, and still we several assignments in hands, we just wanted to mention our latest assignment.
Vetreria Etrusca, located in Altare, near Savona, Italy, invited Empakglass, after a Mould Design Training held in July, to deliver an IS Production and Quality Control training.
Etrusca has several daily challenges, making in between 4 to 5 job changes per day, on a total of 7 lines, the articles that are produced are much more than trivial shapes. And produces in some lines 4 articles at the same time, with different weights.
So, focusing from the glass conditioning, gob shape, delivery, IS settings and timing, in a very interactive and synergic approach, we covered the basic approach and then we were challenged by Etrusca teams to actually perform it on their running productions.
Well, for everyone who has seen Empak teams in action... our natural habitat is the shopfloor!
From Empak, we just wanted to mention that we really loved all the interaction with Etrusca Team, the fact they were really engaged in participating and for the confidence they had in our approach.
See you soon, Etrusca!

EMBALVIDRO, a Greenfield Container Glass Plant, located in Angola, challenged Empakglass's team to provide to its newly set Mould Design Department, the base know-how to become proeficient and independent while developing glass containers but also the necessary mould equipment.
In a Boot Camp logic, the team from Embalvidro was in Empakglass's HQ in Lisbon for three straight weeks, on which the know-how was built from the foundations, the basics in glass process up until subjects as diverse as "simulating" a conversation with a client proposing a bottle design and from there, using a CAD software, to develop the actual container, check the IS machine limits, most suitable production process, weight vs brimful capacity and finally extending from there up until the mould equipment drawings, the materials and parison development.
As a complement to the actual training, visits to Mould Equipment Facilities were made and also a Glass Production Facility, in order to provide an insightful vision of the actual process. Our deep thanks to NeckMolde, Metavil and Intermolde as well as Vidrexport, for letting us visit their production facilities.
We've even had the visit of our CEO, Pedro Pontes, which has been since 2018, in San Diego, USA.
Any greenfield project sucess's, as we know, depends directly on the set of skills, know-how and positive attittude from all the people involved, We wish Embalvidro all the success and the trust in Empakglass for supporting them on this journey.

Just before going into well deserved vacation, Emhart and Empak held another Product Development & Mould Design Training.
This time, with the beautiful City of Savona as background scenery to inspire us all!
With an holistic approach, subjects like glass properties, analyzing an IS timing and even the impact of glass conditioning, gob temperature and delivery system, set the building blocks for a successful mould design.
As part of our tradition in these trainings, we invite the attendees to bring real case scenarios to challenge Empak's PAKGlass Forming Simulator, and this time was no exception.
To the participants and Emhart Team, our deep thanks for welcoming us into your Glass Plant, for the challenges presented during the training and the hospitality!
