NPE
Orlando, Florida, USA, April 2012
The NPE is one of the largest plastics shows in the world.
The CP1000v, built for an A. Schulman plant in India,
was our primary exhibit. We also exhibited a variety of
CM and UM rotors and promoted the new laboratory
and customer demonstration facility in the US. The show
was extremely valuable to us, and the Group at large, as
we were able to advance negotiations on projects critical
to meeting our goals and objectives including two
CP2500’s recently sold to Washington Penn Plastics.
German Rubber Conference
Nuremberg, Germany, 2–5 July 2012
The German Rubber Conference 2012 exceeded all or-
ganisers' expectations. The conference took place in the
Nuremberg Convention Centre from 2 to 5 July 2012
and met positive response on the part of all participants
whose international attendance was large. More than 40
nations were present at the trade exhibition and in the
scientific programme. With more than 220 exhibitors, the
exhibition space available was fully booked. 2,600 trade
visitors came to the DKT, which is an increase of 32%
compared to the last conference in 2009. The educa-
tional symposium was complemented by a forum for
thermoplastic elastomers for the first time and with more
than 850 people, it also attracted significantly more
visitors than in the previous years.
Representatives from the HF MIXING GROUP exhibited
a large booth at the conference and also participated in
the scientific programme and the educational symposi-
um. Dr Markus Hesse gave a lecture on the topic ‘Analy-
sis of the flow processes in tangential internal mixers’
and Dr Andreas Limper and Maik Rinker gave the au-
dience of the educational symposium a closer under-
standing of everything about ‘mixing’.
Owing to the numerous interested visitors from different
countries as well as making many new contacts at our
booth, the German Rubber Conference 2012 was a
complete success. We look back on a good time spent
in Nuremberg and are looking forward to the next German
Rubber Conference with many new contacts.
PLAST
Milan, Italy, 8–12 May 2012
PLAST is the most important international exhibition for
rubber and plastic industry in Italy. In 2012 the organisa-
tion had dedicated a complete pavilion area to rubber,
called RUBBER 2012. A significant number of European
rubber machinery and tooling suppliers participated in
this area. The show had 1,514 exhibitors from 58 diffe-
rent countries and an attendance of 50,593 people. The
audience at our HF MIXING GROUP booth has been
quite high as well – some customers asked about our
TPE technology for understanding the differences between
discontinuous process/mixing and continuous ones from
the quality and cost point of view. In total the large
number of visitors to our booth generated about forty
contacts in the rubber industry and another thirty in the
plastics industry.
