SUMMARY:Sealing & Packaging Technology - Seminar - Philly March 10th &
  11th
DESCRIPTION:About the seminar:\n\nSealing Technology for Packaging Pro
 cesses is designed to give engineers a complete understanding of the v
 arious techniques for applying heat to flexible and semi-rigid packagi
 ng in order to achieve quality seals. A quality seal is critical for p
 roduct protection from environmental conditions that can lower return 
 levels, shorten shelf life, and hasten spoilage. Positive brand qualit
 y perception tamper prevention also result directly from safe, well de
 signed sealing. This two day seminar covers various sealing technologi
 es, seal testing procedures, adhesive sealing, polymer film and foil c
 haracteristics and process / package validation.\nWho should attend:\n
 \nAny personnel in the R&D, testing, process, design, fabrication and 
 manufacturing of food, pharmaceutical, medical, cosmetic, chemical, ve
 terinary or industrial product packaging can benefit from this unique 
 course. Packaging, film and foil personnel will also benefit.\nBenefit
 s of attending:\n• Learn to choose the optimum sealing process for a
 ny situation\n• Learn how physics and chemistry apply to producing a
  high integrity seal\n• Learn the mechanics of heat sealing equipmen
 t and component interaction\n• Learn which types of seals are accept
 able in the marketplace\n• Learn about the integration of sealing eq
 uipment into a packaging line\n• View the heat sealing process throu
 gh technical data, graphs and formulas\nCourse concepts:\n• Thermal 
 heat sealing behavior\n• Impulse heat sealing\n• Dielectric heatin
 g theory\n• Ultrasonic welding\n• Secondary combinational sealing 
 processes\n• Induction sealing\nAbout the instructor:\nDr. Duncan Da
 rby, Associate Professor for the Packaging Science Department at Clems
 on University, is a recognized expert in the use and manufacture of fl
 exible packaging. He has over 20 years of experience in the flexible p
 ackaging industry, developing and providing technical support for seal
 able packaging materials for dairy products, shelf-stable products, be
 verages, dry products, confectionery products and pharmaceutical produ
 cts. Duncan has real-world, hands-on experience with multiple package 
 formats including pouches, cups with lidding and blisters with blister
 -backing, and has worked with many horizontal and vertical packaging l
 ines. He holds a Doctorate in Chemical Engineering from the University
  of Louisville, KY, where his coursework concentrated on polymer scien
 ce and applications. He teaches courses at Clemson, conducts short cou
 rses on a variety of subjects and provides consulting services for ind
 ustrial clients. Duncan has been a featured speaker the TAPPI PLACE, G
 lobal Pouch and E5 conferences.\n\nFor more information visit https://
