Interview made to: Maurizio Mendez
1. Could you please define Engineering in your own words?
The engineer is the person that design, makes or work with machinery
2. What influenced you to pursue Industrial engineering?
I always like the design, makes or work with machinery also to manage a group of workers and deal or succeed in doing or producing something
3. What are the skills you need to be a good engineer?
You have to be good at planning, working with machinery, and be a good manager
4. What are your plans for the future?
I plan to have a nice job or maybe I would like start my own company
5. Why would you recommend Engineering as a career?
I recommend engineering because you could work in different position in a company depending on your personal skills and is a great profession
Interview made to: Lourdes Andrade
1. Could you please define Engineering in your own words?
Engineering is the discipline of acquiring and applying scientific and technical knowledge to the design, analysis, and/or construction of works for practical purposes.
2. What influenced you to pursue Industrial engineering?
Really I’m studying engineering because I didn’t know what else to study
3. What are the skills you need to be a good engineer?
An engineer must be smart, witty, quick, be good with numbers, be able to manage computer programs such as Microsoft Excel and Project and the most important thing is to make the best decisions to satisfy your company and your clients.
4. What are your plans for the future?
I want to specialize in marketing and management.

FARO measuring arm
This article was about a new product in the measurement area, that is one of the most important areas in the industry related with the quality of the product which involves inspections, and analysis among others, with the purpose of creating better products and increase efficiency, this company created this technology that came out, with smaller size and more accuracy that other of its kind.
FARO, providers of portable computer-aided measurement (CAM) arms and laser trackers, has recently announced the release of the new Quantum FaroArm. The new product is, according to the company, the first eight foot arm proven to measure accurately to within .018mm - the equivalent to a fifth of the width of a human hair.
This product allows manufacturers to perform 3D inspections of parts and assemblies on the shop floor. This helps eliminate manufacturing errors, and thereby increases productivity and profitability for a variety of industries, that according to David Homewood, FARO district manager for the UK, France and Distribution, “The new design will bring the existing benefits of Faro’s range to new sectors.”
Also, this new device aims to overcome the limitations of fixed coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) and lower standard portable models, while providing a space-saving, accurate and efficient alternative. The device translates analysis to its laptop computer, simultaneously recording all the data, while illustrating the 3D measurements on screen. The sensor collects coordinates for x-, y- and z-axes, which can then be transferred into a variety of software packages for processing. In addition, there are a range of other features, which make the collection of 3D analysis and measurement data both easier and more efficient. Firstly, the new Quantum FaroArm offers “Bluetooth”, cable-free operation. It also offers mounting flexibility and reduced setup time and the benefits of “auto-sleep” mode, to save energy and extend component life, but the main benefit of the new system is its potential application to new fields as Homewood remarks.
The new technology was exhibited at the Autosport Engineering Show on January 10th and 11th. The two-day event, had areas representing engine testing, racing components, race shop tools and equipment, fuel systems, set-up equipment, electronics and hydraulics, among others.
