Melotte @ Sirris Materials Day

Sirris, the collective centre of the Belgian technological industry organises on 23 October 2008 the 2nd Sirris Materials Day about innovative use of materials as a driver for a technological edge. At the Sirris Materials Day, Melotte’s General Manager Mario Fleurinck will give a presentation on moulding @ Melotte, vertically integrated near-to-net-shape manufacturing solutions. Magnesium moulding fits in perfectly with Melotte's product & process offer. Many of our customers are looking for advanced processes, either to reduce costs (competition with low-wage countries) or to offer something a bit different. During the presentation Mario Fleurinck will focus on a major process re-engineering project based on Magnesium Moulding. The project includes the transformation, reverse engineering and optimisation, of a lost-wax steel part into an advanced magnesium moulding solution. Check out more information on www.materialsday.be/
