Local Facility Tour - Is there an interest?

The IE graduate students have an opportunity to go on a tour at a manufacturing facility in Lafayette. The company is Voest Alpine - http://www.voestalpine.com/ag/en.html.

Facility tour is generally 30 minutes to 1 hour depending upon questions, etc. They can also show a presentation on what they do prior to the tour. This is a manufacturing facility of steel tubular
components for the automotive industry (anti-vibrational items, seat belt pretensioners, etc.).

Product portfolio includes:
Tubular components for: passenger airbag system, pyrotechnic seat belt pretensioners, exhaust components, air suspension systems
Precision tubes for: gearbox axles, shock absorber tubes, fuel
injection lines, piston bolts, pedal systems

Please vote on the right side of the blog what day you would like to go on the tour. The poll will close on March 13th.
