You are invited to a free seminar

Precision Filters, Inc., supplier of high-performance signal conditioning systems, is pleased to sponsor free one-day seminars on measurement systems featuring Charles Wright.

His presentation will be:

"A Unified Approach to Engineering of Measuring Systems."

These one-day seminars will not only discuss how to generate accurate and valid mechanical engineering test data, but will also describe "Peter Stein Test Methodologies" for producing test data that can be defended after the test is completed.

Precision Filters engineering staff will be available to describe how the 28000 Signal Conditioning System hardware directly incorporates Peter Stein Test Methodologies. They will be prepared to demonstrate the 28000 System as an example of the practical and effective application of the data validation tools. Learn more about the 28000 Signal Conditioning System.

Charles Wright

Charles "Chuck" Wright, Developer of the Measurements Engineering Department for a leading satellite manufacturer, has three decades of test and measurement experience. Chuck has written and taught nationally including his Short Course Applied Measurements Engineering. This short course has been delivered all over the United States to engineers and managers from the aerospace, automotive, weapons, electronics, audio, and transportation industries, several national laboratories, as well as academic venues including UCLA and the University of Colorado.

He regularly teaches at Sensors Expo, the Aerospace Testing Seminar and for Stein Engineering Services. Mr. Wright has twice been honored to serve as chairman of the Western Regional Strain Gage Committee, a technical committee of the Society for Experimental Mechanics.

As contributing editor of Personal Engineering and Instrumentation News, he has published 83 bimonthly expert columns on Data Acquisition since 1991.

Prentice Hall published his book Applied Measurement Engineering -- How to Design Effective Mechanical Measurement Systems in 1995.

Education: BSME/MS Measurements Engineering, Arizona State University; MS Management, University of Southern California.
