Wire & Cable ASIA – November/December 2009 9
The 37th Intercable Symposium took
place from June 22nd to 25th in Villach,
Austria, where presentations about
the current situation and the forecast
for the world cable industry were
held.
At the general meeting the elections
of the new IA Intercable management
took place. Professor Peshkov
was confirmed in his position as the
president of the association, while
Mr Rockenhaeuser of Germany’s
Niehoff Maschinenfabrik was elected
as vice-president.
The elected board now consists of
Mr Anvar Bulkhin from Samara Cable
Company, Mr Dmitry Iorgachev from
Odeskabel, Mr Gennadij Makarov
from Sevkabel Holding, Mr Anti
Rissanen from Maillefer SA, Mr Rene
Stoeckl from Rosendahl Maschinen
GmbH and Mr Evgenij Vasiliev from
Trade House VNIIKP.
The event programme included a
visit to the Rosendahl facility to
join the company’s 50th anniversary
celebrations. During the visit,
participants took the opportunity to
see Rosendahl production and
administration at first-hand.
Guided tours through the factory
included the presentation of new
Rosendahl technologies, such as the
newly developed crosshead series
RX and a high-speed running line for
the production of fibre optic cable.
A running line for metal tape forming
and welding, used for RF cables and
for shielding MV and HV cables, was
also on show.
The combination of presentations
and the opportunity to socialise made
the 37th Intercable Symposium a
successful networking event.

2009 Messe Düsseldorf is reporting that,
with eight months still to go before the
start of the wire Düsseldorf exhibition,
international exhibitors already occupy
more net exhibition space than was
the case during the same period
two years ago. Total booked space (at
the end of August 2009) is already
50,000 square metres.
As a result, exhibition Halls 9 to 12
and 15 to 17 are quite full, but
individual stands are still available.
Traditionally the wire, cable and fibre
optic machinery sectors, wire and
cable production and the trade are
presented in Halls 9 to 12, 17 and
parts of Hall 16. Spring making is also
located in Hall 16, while the fastener
technology section (wire) is located
adjacent to this in Hall 15.
