Contact your people today to have them register! They WILL truly benefit from having attended this program!
These high-powered, 3-day programs cover all the essentials for successful brazing of commercial and aerospace components. The improvements to brazing operations that have resulted from these seminars have paid for the cost of the seminar many times over at many companies!
Brazing is a unique joining process that has proven to be one of the most versatile methods by which to permanently join many different kinds of metals/non-metals together in a variety of industries, including aerospace, automotive, electrical power, petrochemical, etc.
Many people think they know how to braze, but they often don’t really understand why brazing works. It has been proven over the years that when people involved in brazing understood the concepts taught in these seminars and implemented them in their operations, the vast majority of their brazing problems disappeared! Result: higher productivity, lower rework, higher customer satisfaction, and higher profits!
Kay & Associates' high-powered three-day intensive seminars cover all the essential elements of brazing in a way that is not only easily understood, but very interesting as well. All seminars run from 8:00 AM until 5 PM each day.

Here are some of the topics that will be covered during the Seminar:
Instructor: Dan Kay (BMetEng, MBA) has operated his own brazing consulting company for 25-years, and has been involved full-time in brazing for almost 50-years, teaching brazing-training courses throughout that entire time period. He received his Bachelor of Metallurgical Engineering degree from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and his MBA from Michigan State University. He spent many years in industry (at Handy & Harman and at Wall Colmonoy) during which time he not only taught their brazing-training seminars, but also was responsible for several brazing-processing plants around the country, and also spent much time in the field helping customers solve their brazing problems. Whatever method of brazing you are using (torch, induction, resistance, or furnace), you will find that Dan will provide key information and help that you will be able to quickly apply in your operations to increase your productivity and reduce your operating costs..
