Local company visit opens doors to Penn College students

Spotlighting Penn College's provision of students' real-world experiences through collaboration with local companies, Howard W. Troup's Fixture Design & Fabrication (MTT 222) class traveled to Spartronics on Oct. 12. "Our visit was to see how a modern electronic circuit board manufacturer utilizes fixtures to make their products and to see if we can make some fixtures for them," said Troup, an assistant professor of automated manufacturing/machine tool technology in the School of Engineering Technologies. Located along Reach Road, Spartronics manufactures highly complex circuit card assemblies and electromechanical products for the aerospace and defense, medical, and instrumentation and control industries.
