MTI 2023 President, Jim Orr from Penna Flame Industries stated, “Like every industry, heat treating has a lot of opportunity in front it. However, opportunity doesn’t come without challenges. MTI Members continue to meet to share best practices in workforce development, technical issues, and operations so we can all learn from one another.”
MTI CEO Tom Morrison stated at this most recent program, “It is exciting to watch MTI Members, many who compete with one another, attend a meeting to solve their most pressing issues together. A key element every MTI Member recognizes is they are not alone and don’t have to solve major issues by themselves. They know they have the strength of other MTI Members to lean on and grow together.”
Through the meeting MTI Member heat treaters and suppliers left with a plan of action through MTI on how they are going to drive a new generation of workers to the heat treating industry, as well as a series of checklists of key steps they can take to minimize their business insurance premiums with quality coverage.
MTI’s next meeting will be its Fall National Meeting in Tucson, AZ, October 9-11. MTI will be celebrating its 90th anniversary.
MTI, a non-profit trade association, is the world’s largest network of heat treaters with sales over $1.5 billion and plants in 40 states and 6 countries. For more information on MTI, visit www.HeatTreat.net.
