Tour participants will see latest manufacturing technologies, including robots and computer-operated machines; job fair also will be held throughout the day

BROOKVILLE, Pa. , Aug. 30, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Contract steel fabricator Miller Fabrication Solutions will open its doors to the public Friday, October 7 in celebration of Manufacturing Day (MFG Day). The annual, nationwide event aims to inspire the next generation to start careers in modern manufacturing.

Miller will host free tours at each of its three facilities for educators, students, customers, vendors and community members. A job fair, held throughout the day at each location, will highlight available career, apprenticeship and training opportunities with Miller.

Tour participants will see the latest technologies in robotics, CNC (computer numerical control) machinery and other equipment while learning about best-in-class lean processes, safe behaviors in the plant and what goes into fabricating high-quality parts for some of the biggest equipment manufacturing brands in the world.

"Participating in MFG Day is deeply important to Miller Fabrication Solutions," said Eric Miller , the company's president.
