Area Manager Juan Miguel Escolar Gonzalez—who has been with EFD Induction in Spain since its launch in 1993— recalls how the decade has progressed: “When we first started, it was with mobile induction heaters. But we’ve since expanded to offer bonding and heat treatment solutions to Spain’s automotive industry.”
And it’s a significant industry. Spain’s automotive sector last year turned out 2,260,000 cars, and more than 595,000 vans and trucks. Obviously, the potential for EFD Induction is significant. “Certainly,” agrees Gonzalez. “Particularly when one considers the cost and quality benefits of induction heating. As we all know, auto makers must constantly strive to reduce costs while at the same time maintaining high quality levels. It’s a tough challenge, but it’s one that can be met with our know-how, equipment and technical services.”
