Mould Design / Product Development Workshop - by Bucher Emhart Glass

From the 10th to the 14th of October the city of St. Petersburg (Florida, USA) was home of another successful Mould design/Product Development Workshop this time organized by Bucher Emhart Glass. Dominique Vassaux from Bucher Emhart Glass and Pedro Pontes from Empakglass, have conducted this 5 day training workshop. The participants learned the current common product / parison / mould design development rules and technologies used within the mould design / production workflow.

This seminar was attended with participants from such different places as: Missouri USA (Piramal Glass), New Jersey USA (Piramal Glass), Indiana USA (Ardagh Group), Netherlands (O-I).

This multicultural set-up was much appreciated since it gave the opportunity to exchange experiences within people from different glass container plants within the same - or related - field of work and even from different backgrounds.
