Seattle, WA (PRWEB) October 01, 2014
The Aerospace Joint Apprenticeship Committee (AJAC) and Buyken Metal Products are partnering to celebrate “Manufacturing Day” on Friday, October 3 at Buyken’s facility in Kent. The objective of this event is to inspire Kent, WA area students to take into account a career in today’s modern day manufacturing environment and uncover how apprenticeship can serve as a pathway to manufacturing careers, including machining, precision metal fabrication and a lot more. Buyken and AJAC are hosting a fun-filled day of tours, manufacturing projects and presentations for Kentridge and Kentwood High School students at Buyken’s facility and on AJAC’s Sophisticated Inspection and Manufacturing Mobile Coaching Unit (AIM-MTU).

Manufacturing Day is an annual occasion that North American companies, like Buyken, assistance by means of open homes, public tours, career workshops and other events to showcase modern manufacturing and encourage interest in manufacturing careers.

Buyken participates as a registered Instruction Agent in AJAC’s apprenticeship with employees presently enrolled in the precision metal fabrication plan.

“It has been a challenge for us to get young folks coming out of college interested in a manufacturing career and in component this is due to the lack of education and instruction programs geared specifically for our industry. We are content to now offer you a path for young men and women to get the instruction needed by means of our partnership with AJAC,” stated Tom Kuzniarek, Buyken Metal Merchandise Operations Manager. “For us it not only is thrilling, but makes excellent sense for our future here at Buyken Metals to open our doors on Manufacturing Day and get young folks interested in a manufacturing career and offer them a way to bring it to fruition.”

Buyken, a Washington State metal products manufacturer, will supply students the opportunity to construct a metal airplane while they tour each and every area of the facility involved in the design, production and inspection processes. AJAC, Washington State’s funded aerospace and sophisticated manufacturing apprenticeship plan will invite students to climb aboard its AIM-MTU and style their personal important chain employing Personal computer Aided Design (CAD) software, particularly, SolidWorks. Students will also observe how a key chain is printed on a 3D printer.

“AJAC is excited to co-host Manufacturing Day with Buyken Metal Items. It is a tremendous chance to dispel the frequent myths often linked with manufacturing and paint, for neighborhood location students, a full and vibrant picture of what it actually signifies to perform in the manufacturing industry – innovation, sophisticated technologies, competitive salaries and much more,” mentioned Demetria “Lynn” Strickland, AJAC Executive Director. “AJAC is searching forward to educating students on apprenticeship as an ‘earn whilst you learn’ pathway to train for a career in manufacturing as a machinist, precision metal fabricator, tool & die maker, and so on.”
