M.R. Mold & Engineering is focused on changing the
perception of manufacturing. We opened
our doors to more than 300 students, faculty and parents in our area to
emphasize how important manufacturing is to our nation’s economy. With many OEMs beginning to reshore their products,
and the current workforce getting close to retirement, there are very few
Millennials with knowledge of manufacturing.
M.R. Mold understands that today’s students must comprehend that there
is an alternative to college. Developing
a career in manufacturing will provide job stability and good pay in any of the
high-skilled, high-tech positions available.
Students, faculty and parents from 8 area schools came by
the bus loads to tour M.R. Mold. These
students are studying engineering, CAD and other technical courses in their
respective schools. Being able to apply
their knowledge in a real-world environment was extremely enlightening to these
students. Beginning with engineering and mold flow
analysis, advancing through machining and programming then ending with the
molding of product, the importance of each process was explained to our guests. R.D. Abbott, a material supplier to the
rubber industry, partnered with M.R. Mold in educating the students on the
chemistry of liquid silicone rubber, the process it goes through to produce
products and its various uses.
Since 1985, M.R. Mold & Engineering has built liquid
silicone rubber and plastic injection molds for the medical, dental and
consumer industries. We have developed
the talent, sophisticated technical knowledge and equipment to develop the
optimum molding solutions. From a concept
on paper to a product you can hold in your hand, students, faculty and parents gained
an understanding of the importance of math, science, art and technology relative
to manufacturing.
