There is only one event that brings together all aluminum extrusion manufacturers from around the world - The International Aluminum Extrusion Technology Seminar 2016 (abbreviated as "ET'16"). This seminar / exhibition is comparable to the "parade of the planets" - an extremely rare and significant event. And the company JSC "TATPROF" could not miss this global event. This seminar takes place every four years in Chicago.
The international seminar "ET'16" is the premiere for the global aluminum extrusion industry. ET'16 is truly global in scale and attractiveness, attracting more than 1200 industry professionals from more than 50 countries. The 11th International Technology & Exposition Seminar - ET '16 is a comprehensive event that touches on every aspect of aluminum extrusion in industry.
The employees of the company, who visited the exhibition, note that manufacturers of aluminum profiles in the USA practically do not export profiles and are focused on the domestic market.
The most important topics at the seminars were: “Innovations in extrusion equipment”, “Automation of the extrusion process”, “Innovations in the field of new alloys”. Some of the developments presented at the seminar were very much interested in the company's management, and our specialists, together with their European colleagues, are already actively introducing new technologies.
The conclusion that can be drawn from the 4 days of the exhibition: the main innovations take place in the field of new alloys and processing of automotive profiles.
