BRM at EMO Hannover 2011 – The World of Metalworking

EMO Hannover 2011 isn’t just another trade show. It’s the world’s premiere event for metalworking technology. Organized by the German Machine Tool Builders Association and promoted by CECIMO, the European Association for the Machine Tool Industries in Europe, EMO Hannover 2011 is the place to be to see new machine tools, manufacturing systems, and many other products – all while learning about innovations in metalworking technology. Four years ago, EMO Hannover drew 166,500 visitors from 80 countries. Nearly 60% of these attendees were industry executives, and that year’s show generated an order volume of 4 billion Euros.

This year, Brush Research Manufacturing (BRM) will travel from Los Angeles, California to Hannover, Germany to participate in another world-class event. From September 19 - 24, BRM’s Michael Miller will review technical drawings, troubleshoot applications, and answer questions from the Brush Research booth (Hall 11, A53) at EMO Hannover 2011. In keeping with the innovative spirit of the show, BRM’s VP of Global Sales will also debut a new line of high-performance nylon abrasive tools. Although we’ll tell you that these new products are an extension of our Nampower line, that’s all we’re saying about these new finishing and deburring tools – at least for now. Hopefully, you’ll attend EMO Hannover so that we can show you!

Showcasing new products is important, of course, but EMO Hannover 2011 also provides American companies like ours with an opportunity to exhibit existing technologies to an international audience. That’s why BRM will also bring Flex-Hones for deburring, edge blending, chamfer blending, and surface finishing. BRM Flex Hones produce a non-directional or cross-hatched pattern and are used in automotive, hydraulic, pneumatic, and industrial applications. They differ in terms of grit and size, and can be used to produce the proper edge radius on a variety of materials. Because selecting the right abrasive for the base material is so critical, we’re eager to share what we know - just as we did in our last blog entry. Two NEW specialty Flex-Hone lines will also be on display at the show.

September is a busy month for trade shows, but there’s no better event for metalworking than EMO Hannover. Whether you’re sourcing miniature deburring brushes, diamond Flex-Hones, or nylon abrasive tools – or even if you’re just interested in talking about new technologies – we hope you’ll visit us at the Brush Research booth in Hall 11, A53.
