Miller Welding & Machine Co. Open House

In celebration of National Manufacturing Day, Miller Welding & Machine Co. (MWM) will host an open house from 9:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. on October 7, 2016.

Tours will be led by company leaders and will give community members the opportunity to witness the behind-the-scenes operations of one of Jefferson County’s most successful metal manufacturing companies. Confirmed guests include students from Brookville School District and Punxsutawney School District, as well as various community leaders.

An annual event that occurs on the first Friday of October, Manufacturing Day is a coordinated occasion during which U.S. manufacturers open their doors to demonstrate the potential of modern manufacturing and foster interest in manufacturing careers.

Manufacturing environments, which include highly trained, well-paid employees who work on state-of-the-art equipment, are commonly thought of as antiquated factories designed for low-skilled workers. Manufacturing Day addresses this misperception by giving all manufacturers an opportunity to open their doors and show, in coordinated effort, exactly what manufacturing is and what it isn’t.
