International Metalworking News for Asia

Be sure to check out the June issue of International Metalworking News for Asia magazine, which spotlights some of the powerful new capabilities highlighted at the Grinding Symposium last month in which we were invited to participate and cover. Our lead feature, Malaysia step up to more advanced technologies, details the interview of Norbert Seo, Bystronic Senior Vice President Market Division Asia and Australia, in which he shared his thoughts regarding Malaysia’s potential especially in terms of high level technology. Norbert revealed the manufacturing sector in Malaysia continues to adopt new technologies to help increase visibility in both production and process. Having more quality in both areas through technology drives better value control, such as fewer defects and overall business efficiency. Also highlighted in this issue: Solution Sneak Peaks at HxGN LOCAL in Bangkok. Hexagon’s Manufacturing Intelligence division hosted the inaugural HxGN LOCAL MANUFACTURING ASIA event at the Novotel Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport Hotel, Thailand. The premier cross-industry technology conference has brought together industry experts and thought leaders from Hexagon’s interconnected business areas to shape the future of Smart Manufacturing solutions. Also notable in the May issue is an interview of Markus Lindemann, Head of Laser Technology Asia Pacific at TRUMPF Pte Ltd explaining the advantages of TruLaser Cell 5030 being an excellent value for money, including the company’s business in South East Asia, as well as challenges and plans. The TruLaser Cell 5030 is easy to run in components with the help of the teachbox and touchscreen. The TruTops Cell Basic software solution also enables you to make quick adjustments to programs directly at the machine with a visual support. And TruTops Cell for offline programming is of course a standard for all 3D laser machines made by TRUMPF. Rounding out the May issue is another interview. Frank Holzer, General Manager of ANCA Sheet Metal Solutions (Thailand) Ltd is a true believer in the power of a brand as it articulates to potential and existing customers the promise of what they can expect when working with a client.
