SEFA OFFERS FASTENER BASICS PROGRAM<br />
SEFA’s first training program- Fastener Basics was held<br />
on September 2nd and 3rd in Marietta, GA.<br />
Our goal was to have 20 attendees for the initial<br />
program and we had eighteen students. This program<br />
covered subjects such as materials, manufacturing<br />
processes, and part identification.<br />
Participants were shown the difference in head markings<br />
and how to recognize various parts. Other areas covered<br />
were blue print/ specifications, product quality, secondary<br />
processes as well as how to order correct items.<br />
The presenters used sample parts, demonstration<br />
videos and other avenues to educate all that attended.<br />
SEFA Thanks The Presenters<br />
SEFA was very fortunate for the presenters who donated<br />
their time and shared their knowledge:<br />
