    A three-tape training video from the Society of Manufacturing Engineers of Dearborn, Mich., presents injection molding principles and practices in a nontechnical way. Developed from in-plant training classes, the video will help manufacturers cut expenses, downtime and accidents; maximize performance and product quality; and train personnel quickly, with less preparation and expense, SME said.

    The series is priced at $497, and comes with an instructor's guide, student workbook and study guide.

    Eventos Primium offers buyers guide

    Eventos Premium Inc. of Charlotte, N.C., has published its annual edition of the ``1995 Latin American Plastics Industry Directory & Buyers Guide.''

    The 196-page, softcover guide lists 3,187 companies in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico and Venezuela.

    This represents more than a 50 percent increase in the number of firms listed compared with the 1994 edition, said Hilda Gurdian, sales and marketing manager for Eventos Premium.

    Product listings are in Spanish and English, and the companies included are subdivided into four sections - finished and semifinished products manufacturers; resins and compounds; chemicals and additives; and machinery, auxiliary equipment, molds and tools.

    The publication lists mostly plastics processors in the six countries, but also covers suppliers to Latin America's plastics industry that are based in the United States, Canada, Italy and Germany. Records contain company name, contact name and complete address, plus telephone and fax numbers.

    The directory is $100. Shipping and handling cost $4 within the United States and $9 to Canada; outside the United States and Canada, add $15 to receive by mail or $45 by courier.
