Educational webinar from Komatsu

Stamping press specialist Komatsu is staging an educational webinar that involves two sessions this week. On Tuesday 10 August, the company will set out how users can best determine their press parameter selections. A day later on Wednesday 11 August, the webinar will focus on die set-up procedures and keeping the press in good working order. Both sessions run from 09:00 to 11:00 CST.

Komatsu wants to provide its users with the tools, as well as the knowledge, needed to stamp today’s increasingly difficult materials. The purpose of this webinar is to do exactly that. The webinar will go over the spectrum of aforementioned topics and will include live demonstrations. By the end of the webinar, press shops will be able to gain a further understanding of today’s stamping materials in order to not only maximise efficiency, but increase the life of the tool and the press. The sessions in this webinar are meant to be attended in order, although if there is one session that particularly appeals, please register.

The speaker is Art Hedrick, the owner of training and consulting firm Dieology, located in Greenville, Michigan, USA. He is journeyman tool and die maker with over 40 years of metalworking experience. In addition, Hedrick is a past instructor at General Motors University and has been the recipient of many training and education awards. He has held the position of chairman on a number of stamping councils with the Society of Manufacturing Engineers and the Fabricators and Manufactures Association.
