Surfcam Technology Days Draws Nearly 500 in Jalisco, Mexico
The event was presented at the Conalep Cast Zapopan technical school in partnership with a Surfcam reseller, Soluciones en Diseño y Manufactura.
Surfcam, a brand of Vero Software, hosted a Surfcam Technology Days event in Jalisco, Mexico, where 480 participants attended seminars, conference sessions and live demonstrations over the course of two days. Presented at the Conalep Cast Zapopan technical school in the city of Zapopan, the event drew representatives from 55 companies and 15 schools, including Surfcam customers, potential customers, students and professors.
“During the two days, we conducted seminars in the morning and afternoon, and we offered conference sessions related to manufacturing areas such as 3D scanning, 3D printing, cutting tools, CNC machines, quality control and, of course, the latest technology available in Surfcam,” says Ricardo Valadez de la Torre, general manager of Soluciones en Diseño y Manufactura (Guadalajara, Mexico), a Surfcam reseller. “In addition to the seminars and conference sessions, we had an expo where we showed two CNC machines running with Surfcam, 3D scanners, cutting tools and 3D printers from other companies.”
The event was covered by Jalisco TV, which live-casted the event on the Web.
“This definitively was a very successful event, due the high response of people who attended,” Mr. de la Torre says. “Our events have typically been just for end users, and up to 100 people, but this year we opened the event to everybody and we increased the attendance by more than 400 percent.”
