Weber Consulting, LLC What Is It? Where Is It Used? How Does It Work? This session will discuss most aspects of thermal spray coatings including thermal spray processes, equipment, pre and post treatment, applications, and industry usage. Processes covered will include flame spray (powder, wire, and rod), detonation spray, high-velocity oxyfuel spray (HVOF), cold spray, plasma spray, and twin-wire electric arc spray. Several thermal spray guns will be available for attendees to handle and discuss throughout the class. Complex automated thermal spray systems and spray booths will be illustrated and discussed. Application examples will be presented for a variety of requirements from several different industries. Industry usage charts will be reviewed listing several processes and coating applications used by various industries. Open and lively discussion is welcomed and encouraged by the presenter who has nearly 30 years’ experience in the thermal spray industry. Wednesday, November 16 — Thursday, November 17 Registration Code: W27 SO YOU’RE THE NEW WELDING ENGINEER Room: N261 Get “up to speed” quickly, ask the right questions, and get the results needed to save money and stay out of trouble! Two-day conference for managers/engineers/designers, and others with welding responsibility but limited exposure/ background in welding. The session is based on arc welding applications but the principles have universal applicability. Presentations and discussion are based on the “Application Analysis Worksheet,” which was developed to teach a senior college course to engineers about to enter industry, with the objective of helping them develop a path to understand and deal with the challenges they were about to face. 78 WELDING JOURNAL / NOVEMBER 2016 Day 1 — Wednesday 8:00 a.m. — 8:15 a.m. Welcome and Introductions Team 8:15 a.m. — 8:30 a.m. Keynote Speaker David Landon — Vermeer and AWS president 2015 8:30 a.m. — 9:15 a.m. Application Analysis Fritz Saenger — Consultant 9:15 a.m. — 9:30 a.m. BREAK 9:30 a.m. — 10:30 a.m. Key Background Information — Steel Walter Sperko — Sperko Engineering Services, Inc. 10:30 a.m. — 11:30 a.m. “Matching” the Base Materials and the Weld Randy Dull — EWI 11:30 a.m. — 1:30 p.m. — LUNCH ON YOUR OWN 1:30 p.m. — 2:30 p.m. Pre And Postweld Operations Mike Rice — Nooter Corp. 2:30 p.m. — 3:30 p.m. Arc Welding Process Modes — Would You Benefit From “Advanced” Equipment and Techniques?
