Pfeiffer Vacuum Opens Facility in Indianapolis

INDIANAPOLIS—Pfeiffer Vacuum, a provider of vacuum and leak detection equipment, has opened a new 40,000-square-foot customer service facility here.

The facility will help North American customers with leak detection and high-vacuum technology, focusing on semiconductor, medical device, consumer electronics, pharmaceutical, automotive and other industries. The new building includes a CNC machine shop and modular assembly bays to support air and helium leak detection as well as custom-engineered vacuum systems.

Customers can have their parts tested on all of the company’s leak detection technologies, including air, helium and hydrogen. Using the newly created multimedia production center, Pfeiffer Vacuum will document the optimal solution. The company can also offer remote, interactive training so that customers can conveniently become more proficient in using leak testing equipment.

The ASSEMBLY Show South

ASSEMBLY is thrilled to return to the Music City Center in Nashville, TN for The ASSEMBLY Show SOUTH on May 1-2, 2024. This is a booming time for manufacturing and the U.S. South is right in the heart of the action. According to ASSEMBLY’s most recent annual capital spending survey, the South is projected to account for 31 percent of total spending this year, marking the fifth straight year this region has accounted for at least 30 percent of capital spending in the U.S.

In this session, manufacturers will learn how Quality function deployment (QFD) can transform consumers’ qualitative demands into quantitative parameters that will shape the design of their product and, ultimately, their manufacturing process.
