What Does 2021 Have in Store for the Parts Cleaning Industry?
With a new opportunity to do good things in your organizations this year, I hope you use the parts cleaning section and this year’s and last year’s Parts Cleaning Conference as tools to succeed.
An in-person PMTS/Parts Cleaning Conference is one of the promises this year, especially because of the show being pushed back to new August dates.
Congratulations! You made it to 2021, overcoming the challenges of the past year. Maybe you have even made lemonade out of lemons. But whether you are thriving or simply surviving, you have been gifted another opportunity to do good things inside and outside of your companies and organizations. To support you in your endeavors this year, this brand will continue to offer articles on the latest parts cleaning processes and technologies, including topics we have never touched on before. Just as cleaning technology is constantly evolving, I hope to provide content here that keeps you abreast of the evolution within our industry. As always, please contact me with the subject matter you would like to see in this section.
I hope you had the opportunity to participate in the 2020 Parts Cleaning Conference through IMTS spark by either tuning in live to the webinar series or watching each session on-demand. Our conference sponsors covered many informative topics on new cleaning technologies, ultrasonic cleaning, CNC waterjet for cleaning and deburring, vacuum degreasing, and a presentation about the new Manufacturing Cleaning Association. It is not too late to watch these webinars on-demand at imts.com/spark. They will be available until the end of IMTS 2020 on March 15.
Although the pandemic has forced companies to offer online events, 2021 is promising in-person events once again, especially in the second half of the year. If you are like me and have a bad case of cabin fever, this is exciting news! I’m looking forward to meeting many of you at the 2021 Parts Cleaning Conference in Cleveland face to face! Its new dates that coincide with the Precision Machining Technology Show (PMTS) 2021 are Aug. 10-12, which have been pushed back from the original April dates.
The outlook is bright for live events in the second half of the year, not only because of the availability of the COVID-19 vaccination but also the state of Ohio’s restrictions on large gatherings is expected to be lifted by that date. Also, many companies will be allowed to travel at that time. So buy a comfortable pair of shoes for walking the show and plan to join us at PMTS 2021!
