SUBJECT: Employee of the Month

Congratulations, Ron. You were selected as February Employeeof the Month based on your cure cycle modeling efforts and the application toMSC composite shaft program. Historically, cure cycles for new compositeparts were established by trial and error, usually resulting in long, costlydevelopment efforts to eliminate delaminations. Using your cure model, youwere able to establish a single step cure cycle for the MSC composite shaft.This cycle was used to successfully cure on the first try the largest (10 ftlong, 11.5 in. dia) 2 in. thick composite shaft that has been manufactured todate. In addition to minimizing the development effort, the single step curewill save over $10,000 per shaft. You can be proud of your significantcontribution on this important program.

The Employee of the Month Award was established as a specialmeans of recognizing extraordinary efforts on the part of some of our ProductEngineering people in meeting requirements of technical excellence, schedule,and cost. This award entitles you to a dinner for you and your partner on anormal Hercules expense report, using charge code 99120080. A giftcertificate (Penneys or Sears) for $100 is available in lieu of the dinner.If you choose the certificate, please contact Wendy Hanson, 16532.
