K-Tron’s Director of Global Marketing has retired

(Pitman NJ, July 11, 2008) - After 20 years with the K-Tron Process Group, Kathy Hunter, Director of Global Marketing, celebrated her well deserved retirement the end of June 2008.

Kathy Hunter came to K-Tron from Glassboro State College (now Rowan University) where she was the Director of the Management Institute. This background gave her a good foundation as she entered the “Corporate” world, working with customers, reps and co-workers from around the globe, allowing Kathy to experience various personalities and cultures within an industrial manufacturing environment.

According to Kathy, her transition from academia to industrial marketing seemed like a steep climb when she arrived at K-Tron. At the time K-Tron was introducing the first digital feeder controls, and Kathy said it took some concentrated effort to get comfortable with the constantly evolving feeder technology. During her career at K-Tron she helped launch innovative products such as modular volumetric and gravimetric feeders, the Smart Force Transducer, the Smart Weigh Belt Feeder, and the Bulk Solids Pump (BSP). She played a key role in transitioning the K-Tron Feeder Group into the K-Tron Process Group with the acquisition of Premier Pneumatics in 2006.

Although she is retiring, Kathy says she plans to remain active in the process equipment arena. After she takes some time off to visit with her son's and daughter's families and especially "spend more time with the grandchildren," she says she will be doing some consulting. Kathy plans on tending more to her garden, and remaining in contact with friends she has developed from over 20 years in the process equipment industry.

K-Tron Process Group

K-Tron is a global leader in the gravimetric feeder market and a single-source supplier for feeding, pneumatic conveying and systems engineering solutions. The K-Tron Process Group manufactures and markets its equipment for the process industries under the brand names of K-Tron Feeders and Premier Pneumatics.
