On April 05, 2023, Mechanical Engineering junior undergraduate students of Shippensburg University (class of 2024)  visited N.E. Reihart & Sons, Inc., a steel fabricator and machine shop located in Huntingdon, PA. The field trip was organized by Dr. Joao Dias, Assistant Professor of the Department of Civil and Mechanical Engineering as part of the schedule of the MECH 310 – Manufacturing Processes classes. During the visit, the students had the opportunity to see the operation of modern manufacturing processes based on automation for industrial-scale production.

Special thanks to Jody Burdge, Secretary of the School of Engineering, who kindly volunteered to drive the students to the visit site!
