Vacuum Technology Courses and/or Seminars, covering:
Vacuum pump/system Operation and Maintenance seminars for many types of vacuum pump
and vacuum application.
Vacuum pump Service Seminars, strip and rebuild advice for Edwards and Stokes oil sealed
vacuum pumps.
Edwards vacuum pumps are used mainly in scientific and R&D applications such as mass spectrometers,
electron microscopes and other analytical instruments and also in light industrial applications. Many R&D
laboratories use small rotary vane pumps in freeze drying and wet chemistry applications.
Stokes rotary piston pumps and vacuum blowers are standard pumps for heavy industrial applications
such as vacuum furnaces for heat treating, carburizing, brazing and annealing. Also used extensively in the
aluminum coating or deposition industry.
Vacuum Application consulting
Howard Tring - qualifications and background:
Howard has spent over 30 years in the vacuum pump industry in several countries.
In England:
Completed a 5 year vacuum engineering apprenticeship with Edwards High Vacuum International Ltd.
During the apprenticeship he completed a one year City and Guilds Workshop Technology Course and gained his
Higher National Certificate (HNC) in mechanical engineering at Crawley College of Further Education.
Spent two years in the Field Service Department at Edwards, servicing and installing vacuum pumps and systems
such as vacuum coaters, freeze dryers and vacuum furnaces.
In Canada:
After a number of years gaining sales and applications experience in other industries, Howard returned to work for
Edwards as a sales engineer.
This position led to a technical support position helping customers in Canada and the USA.
Due to customer requests, technical training was offered using UK based trainers and Howard prepared the
practical equipment for them to use. He then took over the technical training role as he gained experience in this
field.
In the United States:
Howard then moved to Massachusetts to take on the role of Technical Training Manager for N. America.
New training initiatives were developed for employees and scheduled training courses offered to vacuum industry
customers.
When Stokes Vacuum became an Edwards company the Service training was updated and new technical training
developed for the Stokes products.
In addition to training in N. America he also delivered training courses to semiconductor engineers in Thailand, and
Ireland.
When BOC was purchased by Linde in 2007, the Edwards business was divested and became a private company.
The new company Edwards Vacuum Inc disbanded the technical training department.
As a result Howard started Vacuum and Low Pressure Consulting to offer his training skills and experiences in
the vacuum industry to companies that are new to the technology, or whose employees could benefit from a better
understanding of vacuum processes.
Let us know how Vacuum and Low Pressure Consulting can help you.
