J. Schick has been a member
of ILASS since 1989 and became a member because ILASS, and its
annual conference, is the best source for spray research and
related technologies. He has served on the board since 1997 where
his main involvement has been on increasing participation from
industry. To that effect, he works on promoting ILASS to industrial
users of spray technology and also works on organizing exhibits
for the annual conference. Membership/service enables him to
be involved in an outreach program whose main purpose is to advance
the understanding of sprays which is a personal benefit as well
as a benefit to Spraying Systems Co.
Rudi is Vice President of Spray Analysis and Research Services,
a Service of Spraying Systems Co. He is responsible for consulting,
testing and research services for industrial applications. In
this capacity he directs the world’s largest spray laboratory,
