Another highlight of the event was the live metalworking demonstrations on multiple EMAG machines. Attendees witnessed world-class manufacturing solutions for carrier production on the VLC 250, combination machining with the VSC 400 DDS hard-turn and grinding, and two-sided shaft machining on the VT 2-4 from EMAG’s new Modular Standard product family. The unique event allowed participants to secure greater process knowledge in their markets and provided numerous networking opportunities within the industry. “We like to open our doors and welcome in both known and new customers to see the capabilities of our production facility and meet our team while sharing with them the wide range of solutions EMAG has to offer for any manufacturing challenge,” stated Peter Loetzner, CEO of EMAG LLC. “We are proud to celebrate 20 years of operation in the US with our customers and share with them how we are advancing technologies to make the next 20 years even more successful.”
