Calling all engineers, machinists, purchasing agents, operation personnel and owners at PMPA member and non-member precision machining facilities! The Precision Machined Products Association (PMPA) is ready to take you on the road for a unique learning experience. The new PMPA Mastery Program offers an opportunity to dive deep into the sources and processes to equip decision-makers with a broader vision and understanding of the industry’s supply chain.
The Mastery Program, designed to help machine shop employees make smarter decisions about their own company’s processes, consists of three bus tour options throughout 2021 and 2022 that include two full days of travel to many industry facilities for a hands-on experience PMPA says will be like no other. In total, the three tours include visits to 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, Ford F-150 assembly line, and the Precision Machining Technology Show (PMTS) 2021.
