Alpha and Barbieri Host Second Successful Alpha Academy Seminar
July 21, 2015 | AlphaEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
Alpha, the world leader in the production of electronic soldering materials, presented its latest assembly solutions at the second Alpha Academy seminar on Tuesday 23rd June hosted by Barbieri, its Premium Distributor partner for Italy. The event follows on from the highly successful Alpha Academy seminar held in October last year, and was attended by over 20 people from a number of key companies across a broad range of professions including production managers and process engineers.
The seminar included presentations on the latest Alpha products and assembly solutions which were a direct result of customer feedback. Alpha’s Donato Casati and Sandro Crivellaro presented the latest information on ALPHA® Exactalloy® Preforms, Low Silver Alloys and the topic of Total Ionic Contamination.
The seminar also included presentations from two guest speakers from Datapaq, a manufacturer of temperature profiling systems, data loggers and temperature analysis software for industrial heating systems and Prevent srl, a PCB Manufacturer that provides expert lab analysis.
Alpha’s Donato Casati and Barbieri’s Davide Barbieri commented, “The event has been hugely successful and we have received very positive feedback from the attendees. The technical focus of the seminar was extremely popular as it provided attendees with useful takeaways for their daily jobs. This has encouraged us to continue with the Alpha Academy seminars, with two further seminars planned for October and February.”
Alpha and Barbieri have enjoyed a long and successful partnership, with Barbieri supplying Alpha products across Italy for 33 years. This year, Barbieri has become part of Alpha’s unique group of Premium Distributors.
