SIDNEY — Detailed Machining Inc. will host an open house at its manufacturing facility located at 2490 Ross St. to recognize Manufacturing Day. The open house will be held on Oct. 2 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and is open to Shelby County-area community.

Detailed Machining Inc. manufactures all types of products for the Automotive, Recreational, Agriculture, Heavy Truck and equipment manufactures. The open house will give visitors a “behind-the scenes” look at new technology, CNC Machining, Turning, Water Jet cutting and what manufacturing is all about in the area.

Studies show that almost 80 percent of Americans believe manufacturing is important to economic prosperity, standard of living, and national security. Only 30 percent of those surveyed would encourage their children to go into manufacturing careers. This is a trend that must be reversed and which Manufacturing Day seeks to address by giving more people an opportunity to discover what contemporary manufacturing environments are really like.

Manufacturing Day is an annual event that brings together hundreds of manufacturers in North America to host students, teachers, parents, and other local community members at open houses designed to showcase modern manufacturing technology and careers.

Manufacturing Day is co-produced by the Fabricators & Manufacturers Association, The National Association of Manufacturers, and the Manufacturing Extension Partnership, and organized locally by the Dayton Region Manufacturers Association.
