Following
the success of the first four seminars in 2000,
2002, 2004 and 2006 held in Europe, the 5th seminar
will be held on 24-26 September 2008 in Toronto,
Canada.
27 lectures will be given
by invited, well-known experts in the field of resistance welding from leading
institutes and companies all over the world. They will
cover the latest inventions and developments in resistance welding
with special emphasis on applications of new materials which are difficult to
weld such as advanced high strength steels and aliminum alloys
etc.
The objectives of the
seminar are:
• To bring up the latest innovations and developments on industrial applications of resistance welding.
• To provide an opportunity for industrialists and specialists in resistance welding to share their expertise and experiences at an international level.
