The purpose of this event is to introduce how X-Ray CT Scanning and analysis technology can benefit designers and manufacturers. The technology is available to industry through the Vermont Manufacturing Collaborative (VT-MC) and Advanced Manufacturing Center – right here in Vermont!  Come and learn about the Nikon 225 kV CT Scanner and VolumeGraphics analysis software. Experience how it can help you with product design, quality assurance, design qualification, root cause analysis and more. The CT technology coupled with VolumeGraphics software can provide non-destructive 3D imaging and analysis on material properties such as porosity, wall thickness, particle distribution and tolerancing. We can also look inside parts to inspect weld joints, identify cracks, voids or foreign material. It can even calculate measurements and perform reverse engineering by creating CAD files.

This is a great opportunity to connect with potential interns, volunteers, grad students, and new hires…showcase your business…share your career expertise with NVU students, alums and community members…and gain exposure and community support for your business.

Students at NVU are strongly encouraged – and almost always required – to complete an internship that provides a real and tangible benefit to a community business or organization.  If you have never had an intern, but have been thinking about trying it, contact Beth.Walsh@NorthernVermont.edu.  We have all of the tools to get you started.  Even if there are no current openings at your business, the Northern Vermont University-Johnson Career and Internship Fair is your direct link to potential interns and volunteers who can carry out that special project you’ve been trying to get started.

We also have hundreds of students looking for a part-time college job, a summer job, graduate school possibilities, or the all-important first job after college!
