IGTI Volunteer Shows Innovation Beyond His Work

摘要

Most former IGTI Technical Committee Chairs are familiar with the turbine wheel jewelry that has served as tokens of appreciation for their service. The turbine wheels were originally designed to fit around the ASME member pin, which could easily be fastened on a lapel and worn with pride. Geoff Sheard, a former technical committee chair and current chair of IGTI's Controls, Diagnostics & Instrumentation Committee, devised a creative way to once again wear his turbine wheels: he turned them into cuff links. Two turbine pin wheels were produced in the preferred alloy, and then the other cuff link components manufactured in the same alloy.
