IEEE Region 5

[] This event will be a tour of the ABB Lab and Plant facilities located in Fort Smith, Arkansas. Space is limited so registration will be set to 30 maximum attendees. If we have the full 30 attendees, there will be three separate tour groups: two will start simultaneously but go in different directions within the plant, and the third group will begin 5 minutes later. A lab representative will be assigned to each group. After completing the plant tour, the representative will guide the group to the lab, where they will wait for the remaining groups. The lab tour will be conducted with everyone together. Please note that safety shoes are mandatory in both the plant and lab areas. We have a limited supply of safety shoes available for loan, so we ask that attendees bring and wear their own if possible. Additionally, if anyone has prescription safety glasses with side shields, it’s best for them to wear these to avoid the bulkier over-the-glass style. The Ozark, Arkansas, and River Valley Sections are all co-hosting this event. This should be a great tour! Fort Smith is the US headquarters for ABB’s Motors and Generators business and the global headquarters for NEMA compliant motors. The 1.2 million electric motors produced annually in Fort Smith convert electricity into mechanical energy to do the work of industry, like, powering pumps, conveyors, fans, and compressors. Fort Smith includes our motors distribution center and advanced development lab. Our product offering is designed to meet our customers’ needs for reliability, availability, variety, and energy efficiency. 5713 Rs Boreham Jr St, Fort Smith, Arkansas, United States, 72908

The MOVE Weather Team is one of several support components of the MOVE program. It includes both professionals and enthusiasts who are interested in weather and support of the IEEE MOVE Program. This support primarily involves providing information to MOVE Operations about conditions that might lead to the deployment of a MOVE team, and secondly, offering information to the MOVE team during a deployment.
