Instead of putting the focus on MAPLAN and the rubber injection machine, the idea behind this event was to select a concept involving the presentation of the whole product range from the material to the final product or quality control respectively. In that context it was a logical consequence for us to invite important partners of ours who collaborate with us on numerous projects every day to participate in this internal trade fair. That gave our visitors a perfect opportunity for networking but also the possibility to attending speeches on specific subjects related to practical cases and research. Offering our customers a platform to network was equally important as working closely with our partners. Additionally to the shorts breaks in between the high-quality speeches, the guests had a nice opportunity to connect during the evening event at the Belvedere Palace. I like to remember that beautiful summer evening at the Belvedere, the breathtaking view, the graceful dancers and the joyful atmosphere. 334 visitors 24 countries 24 partners 26 speeches 10 machine exhibits 18 machines in construction On the occasion of the “MAPLAN Days of Technology“ which took place on the 4th and 5th of June 2014, 334 visitors from all over the world came to the MAPLAN headquarters in Ternitz. Specialized lectures from 24 partners, machine exhibitions and demonstrations in the machine hall and the production plant gave opportunities for networking and illustrated the latest stage of the elastomer moulding injection technology. Apart from visiting the wide updated product range of MAPLAN’s horizontal and vertical machines customers had the opportunity to attend lectures and visit the stands of well-established partners of MAPLAN. Next to these technical highlights, one of the most memorable parts of the event was the evening program at the Belvedere Palace.
