He has worked with a variety of industries to develop solutions to improve quality and deliverability. Specific examples in the metalcasting field include heat treatment control and optimization, rapid patternmaking, decreasing product variability, and reducing the measurement error associated with visual inspection. Other areas of interest include dimensional variability of products, metrology and fixturing. Most recent work is on manufacturing system improvements and automated solutions for the manufacture of large composite wind blades. Dr. Peters received his BS, MS, and PhD degrees in Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering from Penn State University.
