Abstract
Some of the most satisfied people in life-from a career standpoint-are those who live on the cutting edge of technology and are able to crea te a state-of-the-art system, then set it up and see it meet expectati ons-year after year. The finishing industry moved out of the backgroun d and into the forefront at Xerox Corporation in the '70s when some of its employees teamed up to create the electroformed ''heart'' that ul timately pushed the rapid development of the high-speed copier. After 20 years of production and now decreasing demand, Xerox is looking ahe ad by exploring possible partnerships and new applications for the con tinued utilization of its high-volume electroforming facility.
