Why “ Cannon Do It Better ”?

Dear reader , when , in the Editorial Committee meeting , we asked ourselves how to title the most important Cannon News of the year – this number , distributed at the K 2016 show – we immediately thought to a straight message for our clients , those who make our success possible every day . Those clients who keep rewarding us and our commitment by choosing Cannon once more .

Why do they do this ?

Because we are increasingly at their side with our Local Offices and our Global Customer Service ? It ' s not enough , even if we have in the past three years opened four new Companies in South Korea , Indonesia , Vietnam and United Arab Emirates only to improve our commercial and after-sales service in those areas , and we are today present in 33 countries with more than 120 Service Engineers .

Or because we are always available to study and solve the problems that our clients are presenting us , offering innovative and efficient solutions ? Not only , even if in the past three years our R & D Team allowed us to propose innovations that are already milestones in the plastics processing technology :

· VAI ( Vacuum Assisted Injection ) – the technology that allowed Cannon to be the first using vacuum in combination with conventional and new blowing agents for Polyurethane foams .

· JL Vector – an innovative mixing head , revolutionary in the field of Polyurethane foam injection .

· TRIPLO – A Patented plate adjustment system for industrial thermoformers that allows an effortless adjustment of the moulding area at every mould change .

· CRESIM – The new frontier for recycled Carbon fibres : Cannon proposed already a series of eight projects for the industrial use of recovered Carbon fibres , with stunning structural and efficiency performances .

Or because we are always able to find the best solution in terms of Quality vs . Price ratio , to satisfy the needs of our clients ? May be , but that ' s not the main reason . The truth is that clients all over the world keep choosing Cannon because Cannon Do It Better !

We have understood that message , we are aware of it , we want to explain it to you while we thank you for your continuing preference .

During the K 2016 Show in Dü sseldorf you will be able to attend , at our Booth B76 in Hall 13 , a series of workshops pertaining to all the Cannon technologies in the plastics field . See here , on the facing page , the detailed program of our meetings .

Come and see us , we will listen to your requests , present our solutions and find a satisfactory answer for your production needs … assisted by a good dish of original Italian food .

We are waiting for you , at K 2016 !
