22 / January 2020 powderbulk.com The main focus of the agreement is the production of high-quality monolithic refractory materials and prefabricated parts. The produc- tion line, which began operation in late 2019, is automated with a stan- dardized production process and requires only four to five employ- ees to operate. Most of the refrac- tory materials produced will be exported from China. As part of the agreement, Mitsu- ishi will dispatch professional engi- neers to assist in supervising new equipment construction, upgrading existing equipment, guiding pro- duction process improvement after installation and operation, and pro- viding technical guidance. "Atomisation for Metal Powders" course in the UK scheduled for March 2020 The course "Atomisation for Metal Powders," hosted by the University of Manchester in the UK, will be held March 5-6, 2020. Andrew Yule, emeritus professor of mechanical engineering, University of Man- chester, and John Dunkley, chair- man of Atomising Systems Ltd., Sheffield, UK, will be teaching the intensive course. Attendees will learn up-to-date practical infor- mation combined with theory. The course is for engineers working in metal powder production and research and development. The current range of available powder atomizer types will be covered for most metals, powder types, and uses. Key instrumentation, essen- tial theory, and computer modeling for powder atomization will also be covered. For more information, visit www.cpfresearch.com/courses/ amp-course.
