Recovery for component makers discussed

More than 50 participants recently

attended the Remaining Competitive

in Hardwood Components Produc-

tion workshop at the Wood Education

and Resource Center in Princeton, W.V.

The event focused on the state

of the economy, how it affects the

industry, what other companies are

doing, what the future might hold and potential opportunities. Several speakers predicted a return to better times in the foreseeable future with long-term benefits, as weak industry participants close shop, allowing for a strong recovery for the remaining players.

Weinig’s Mooresville, N.C., location hosted an invitational expo for customers in the southeast April 24-25 which drew a crowd of 33 attendees from 16 companies.

The event focused on demonstrations of three targeted products: the EconoRip’s low-cost ripping solution, the Unimat 800’s heavy-duty moulder capacity and the OptiCut S- 35 chop saw. Application engineers, service technicians and product specialists were on hand to answer questions.

The Weinig agency for Ontario, Canada, Taurus Craco, recently welcomed customers to its facility for the Euro Technology event, April 30 through May 2.
