At the Compounding World Expo in Cleveland, OH, ENTEK’s Melissa Jensen-Morgan will present on ‘Top Tips for Faster Product Changeovers’.  This is a topic that ENTEK has been passionate about for several years, and led to the company’s development of many of the technologies incorporated in its QC3TM (quick-change, quick-clean, quality control) line of twin-screw extruders.

Melissa is a 2008 graduate of Oregon State University, where she earned her Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering, with Honors.  A Design Engineer at ENTEK, she has been with the company since 2010.  Her name is on a patent awarded in 2017 for ‘Extruder Screw Shaft Alignment Apparatus and Method’, one of the key features on the QC3TM line of twin-screw extruders.  This invention allows for a much faster and easier method of installing extruder shafts by creating an automatic way to mate shafts and couplings, which was traditionally a time-consuming task.

If you’re coming to the show, mark your calendar to attend Melissa’s presentation which will take place on Thursday, May 9th at 11:40 a.m. in Theater 1.
