Karsten Nielsen joined Techevon as a Technical Director at their Global Innovation Center in Elk Grove Village, Illinois.
Nielsen worked for 21 years at Pioneer Metal Finishing as a Senior Process and Systems Engineer operating their R&D lab and Technologies Division. He was also at Mid States Aluminum as a Senior Manufacturing Engineer for Anodizing and lately as Director of Coating at Latitude Corp., managing the anodizing and powder paint lines.
During his career, Nielsen has designed and installed anodizing lines, paint and electrocoat lines, and waste treatment systems. His specialized experience in materials science and anodizing — both from analytical and production perspectives — makes him highly experienced in troubleshooting, process development, and efficiency improvements.
“With the addition of Karsten, Techevon has significantly bolstered its technical resources,” says Tej Patel, Techevon Director. “I am particularly excited to have him on board based on his extensive knowledge of anodizing line operations and design, along with his extensive knowledge of anodizing chemistry. Karsten will be leading our research and development efforts and working with our customers to further grow our business both domestically and internationally.”
Techevon is an international metal finishing manufacturer and supplier that provides a full line of superior anodizing products, including organic dye chemistry. Techevon also offers anodizing support services to provide complete and thorough lab analysis to help anodizers optimize their colors, baths, and processes.
