Electronics Inc. Education Division and the Institute of Materials Science and Engineering of Clausthal University of Technology are conducting a Shot Peening Workshop in Goslar, Germany on September 24 – 26, 2012. The event will be held at the Hotel Niedersächsischer Hof.
The first two days of the workshop will cover every aspect of a controlled shot peening procedure including process control, media, equipment, equipment maintenance, evaluation and measurement of the process. In addition, roto-flapper peening training will be presented. Students will also have the opportunity to earn shot peening certification by passing Level I, II and III Shot Peening and Roto-Flap Peening exams.
