Under the motto ‘Join with Weller’, a total of 300 invited guests from 32 countries took part in the company trade fair in Besigheim near Stuttgart, Germany. Marcus Eisenhuth, General Manager Europe of Cooper Hand Tools called the event a “great success”. Weller, a leader in soldering, presented its product novelties and specialist solutions in different workshops. Topics like soldering tips and lifetime issues, fume extraction or hot air and BGA were not only discussed in theory, but also tested in the practical part of the workshops. During the factory tour the ‘made in Germany’ aspect was the fore.
The new high-end-multitalent WR 3M was presented as a highlight. The versatile repair station is specifically tailored to the needs and requirements of professional repairs to latest-technology electronic sub-assemblies in industrial production engineering and in the repair and laboratory fields.
At the closing of the workshops, Marcus Eisenhuth praised the long-standing partnership and good contact with his customers. 18 customers were honoured for more than 20 years of good cooperation.
