Events 2009

March 2009


Maastricht – The Netherlands The seminar is being formulated such that both EABS Technical; Consultants and a number of guest speakers will present Papers at the event. It is certain that specialised Papers concerning furnace atmosphere technology, automated brazing machines, The Cuprobraze Process, and the technology for the successful use of furnace brazing filler metals pastes, will be presented by the visiting speakers. EABS are currently in discussion with a well-known producer of Industrial Brazing Furnaces, and we believe that this company, too, will present a Paper.

May 2009


Basle – Switzerland The presentation of the seminar will take place on 4th June, commencing at 09:00. During the afternoon of the 3rd June Technical Specialists who possess a detailed knowledge of the brazing of tungsten carbide will be available to delegates, by appointment, for the confidential discussion of any specific brazing problems that they are experiencing.

Autumn 2009


This two-day seminar always attracts more bookings than can be accepted. So, people who plan to attend are strongly recommended to visit this site regularly so as to be ‘first in the queue’ when bookings can be made. We anticipate that the full programme, together with booking forms, will be posted to this site in late January 2009, a few weeks before the details are circulated to our respective mailing lists.

We are acutely aware that Manufacturing Industry is continually seeking specialised and focussed advice concerning what is, and what is not, ‘best practice’ brazing and soldering. Such information and advice is available from EABS!
