There are solutions to the workforce shortage. We need to educate and train the next generation of workers, and try to keep that talent in our state. #SessionPriorities

It takes a great team! We had fun celebrating our @MSPBJnews Business of Manufacturing Medium Manufacturer of the Year award together. #Teamwork #SPIRITofUMC

The shop is using #3dprinting more and more, too. Here’s a nifty CMM fixture with magnet-latched door created for a cylindrical part. Might be adding a new #additivemanufacturing machine soon...@AddMfgMedia

[Derek Korn @PM_Derek]

Also really appreciated the open feel here. Windows let you see the clean, bright, organized shop they’re (deservedly) proud of as soon as you walk through the front door.

While #ontheshopfloor @umc1968 I learned how it uses on-machine probing for process control of tight toleranced parts. Automated example here with a #cobot

Thanks Derek. We are looking forward to your visit and appreciate reading your publication Modern Machine Shop and learning about all the great work other shops are doing around the country. @MMSOnline @UMC1968 @MMS_Derek

[Derek Korn @PM_Derek]

Just spent close to an hour talking with the folks at @UMC1968 (Ultra Machining Company) about what I might write about after my visit next week. I enjoy talking machining with those who really know their stuff. I could probably write 50 stories about things they're doing there.
