DESMA Training Courses - KEY TO YOUR SUCCESS!

MEET THE TRAINER - WALTER FRICK

Walter Frick recently began to handle our training programs and the response has been overwhelming. Walter, a 30 year employee with DESMA, apprenticed with DESMA Germany in the 1970's. His roots in rubber are deep and he possesses a very strong knowledge of polymer processing - from Silicone to HNBR to butyl compounds. After his apprenticeship, Walter was a Service Technician responsible for the installation of many machines in North America and worldwide. He is one of the few people in the industry that possesses such a vast theoretical and practical knowledge of injection molding of rubber.

Over the years, Walter worked his way up within the ranks of DESMA. Walter manages the internal sales group of DESMA North America and is a key part of the Management Team. To keep "current" in his knowledge of the subject, and to also have the opportunity to work directly with customers in real world conditions, Walter assumed this additional role in early 2008.

Walter is an accomplished speaker who and has presented to the rubber industry many times throughout his carrier. Two years ago, Walter published a paper on Vacuum in Rubber Injection Molding, which debunked several "myths" of the use of vacuum. This basis of this paper is quite often used by many of our customers as a solid reference for process set up.

Contact Walter today to discuss your needs specific training needs. All programs are designed to increase machine efficiency, reduced down time, optimize your machine setup, reduced cycle times and provide your operators / support staff a higher degree of operating knowledge.

Walters programs are available on a first come - first serve basis.

During the classroom phase of the training, Walter will guide the participants page by page through our structured training manual; allowing them to ask questions and make detailed notes.  

These manuals are ideal as a quick reference in the future. Following the classroom training, the lessons learned are then reinforced with hands-on training at the machine, showing you invaluable tips on maximizing your machine’s output.
