If you’re looking for that ONE place where you can invest your time and know that you’ll walk away happy, then today’s Heat Treat Radio episode is one you’ll want to hear. In this podcast, Anne Goyer from IHEA, Eva Rowe from Messe Dusseldorf North America, and Peter Sherwin from Eurthorm by Schneider Electric join Heat Treat Radio host Doug Glenn to discuss the two most important international heat treating events – one in North America and one in Europe — the International Thermprocess Summit 2018 (ITPS) and Thermprocess 2019.

Doug’s three guests review the talks and news from the North American event, ITPS, which was held earlier this year, July 30-August 1, in Atlanta, Georgia. Peter Sherwin describes the talks that impressed or stood out to him the most. Anne Goyer addresses the floor talk from attendees and vendors regarding future shows. Eva Rowe reveals what participants can expect at Thermprocess 2019, which will be a quartet of shows which they’ve called the “Bright World of Metals.” The four events that are combined into this “Bright World of Metals” are Metec, Thermprocess, GIFA, and Newcast. All will take place in Dusseldorf, Germany, next June 25-29, 2019.

And don’t forget that here in North America, the two leading heat treating trade shows are Furnaces North America in the even-numbered years, and ASM’s Heat Treat Show in the odd-numbered years.
