Deborah Barney, ATK launch Systems
Debbie was instrumental in the operational development and qualification of several new mixes, including the liner prior to casting and TIGA adhesive used to bond the components for the booster separation motor, the pressure sensitive adhesive used at motor field joint mating, and the CBF asbestos-free segment liner prior to casting. As a leader in the mix room, she has done a great job training new employees to do the job right the first time. Her attention to processing and safety details along with her willingness to help are admirable traits that carry over to all those that work with her.
