The best investment in your business is in your performers. PMPA is providing three precision machining experiences that shouldn’t be missed: National Technical Conference, Mastery Program and Precision Machining Technology Show (PMTS).

Businesses invest in equipment, materials and new technology. Successful businesses invest in their performers, too. After all, performers are the talent that run the equipment, use the materials and implement the new technology. They are the problem-solvers and the people who get things done. Investing in their talent is easy this August in Cleveland, Ohio. Employers have the chance to strengthen their workforce’s talent by sending their performers to PMPA’s National Technical Conference, Mastery Program and Precision Machining Technology Show (PMTS).

National Technical Conference (NTC) — August 8-10, 2021

Rudy! Rudy! Rudy! Yes, Rudy Ruettiger, the famous football walk-on from the University of Notre Dame, will motivate everyone in the keynote speech. 

The NTC is packed with 27 interactive sessions focused on precision machining. Performers from precision machining shops will benefit from the four tracks: Fundamentals, Mastery, Administrative and Job Layout. Topics include GD&T, materials, CNC, Swiss, cam, continuous improvement, lightly attended, culture, audits and an escape room where teams work together to “win the contract!”

Mastery Program — August 10-11, 2021 | March 30-31, 2022 | May 3-4, 2022

During three, two-day bus tours, PMPA’s Mastery Program will take precision machine performers through four PMPA member shops, four steel mills, one brass mill, one stainless and nickel bar and wire mill, one copper and bronze mill, one toolmaker, one machine tool builder/distributor and the Ford F-150 assembly line! Plus, Miles Free III will guide them through the Precision Machining Technology Show! 

By the end of this unparalleled opportunity, attendees will have expanded their knowledge and have a deeper understanding of the precision machining industry which can result in smarter problem-solving. Engineers, machinists, purchasing agents, operations personnel and owners would all benefit from the Mastery Program. If the people who are responsible and have the authority to solve problems are more knowledgeable about their sources and processes, they can use their judgment to better understand the likelihood and unlikelihood of the issues they face. 

Precision Machining Technology Show (PMTS) — August 10-12, 2021

PMTS will be the first in-person trade show in the industry since 2019! Exhibitors have new technology to show and are looking forward to conversations with attendees in person! The Cleveland Convention Center hall will be filled with sights, sounds and opportunities for owners and machinists alike.
