Record number of visitors at Kurtz Ersa in-house fair!
Moulding Machines present smart solutions for Industry 4.0
Planned well in advance, the two-day Kurtz Ersa in-house fair for the Moulding Machines saw an absolute record number of visitors. With 500 people registered for the first day alone, the programme of lectures, vivid live demonstrations in the machine factory and the general programme of events really hit the mark in terms of visitor interest.
On 16 and 17 November Kurtz Ersa presented innovative highlights from the fields of particle foam machines and foundry machines for guests from at home and abroad, and illustrated ways of linking the individual systems intelligently to one another in this era of digital networking. Lectures on both subject fields started every hour between 10:30 AM and 3:30 PM on the first day, and provided the theoretical base for the exhibits in the machine factory.
Legendary Kurtz Ersa Stairwell Party
The end of the lectures was by no means the end of the event – after a short break, the legendary Kurtz Ersa Treppenhausparty (“Stairwell Party”) began at 7 PM, with musical entertainment provided by the “Kleine Salonorchester” (“Small Salon Orchestra”) and a range of delicious food on offer. After changing to a smaller line-up with tuba, cajon, guitar and accordion, the four-piece band even managed to fit into the lift and took the music up to the higher floors. On Friday morning, the focus was back on engineering topics, lectures missed first time round could be visited. The lunch break was accompanied by music from the Group’s own Hammerchor (“Hammer Choir”), in the afternoon customers were invited to an optional tour of Wertheim including the castle.
“We are very pleased with the fantastic reception given to the 2017 in-house fair by our customers and the positive feedback on the event. There was an enormous effort involved in giving our business partners a hands-on demonstration of the broad performance spectrum of Moulding Machines at Kurtz Ersa with regard to digital networking in the form of future-oriented and competitive solutions. It was a lot of work, but a lot of fun as well! In the name of the Management Board I would like to thank all customers, partners and employees who contributed to the success of the Kurtz Ersa in-house fair”, said Kurtz Managing Director Uwe Rothaug.
