About 180 MCAA members traveled to central Texas last week for MCAA’s 2016 Fabrication Conference. Hosted by Dynamic Systems, Inc. (Austin, TX), the tour of the company’s fabrication operation gave attendees an appreciation of the company’s focus on process and productivity and dedication to providing its employees with the best possible work environment.
Attendees saw the virtual design area; machines, tools and equipment including a spiral machine, CNC plasma tables and coil line and delivery, the Vernon 5 Axis and Victaulic machine; the bar coding and basketing operation; cutting and welding procedures; quality assurance/quality control; and much, much more.
Educational sessions augmented the program. Dynamic Systems Senior Vice President Jay Rohan started off the conference with a detailed overview of the company and its fabrication operation. UA Training Director Chris Haslinger and International Representative Mark Buss shared their expertise about issues affecting fabrication operations, including new equipment, such as “Mega Stir” and other technologies that are changing the way jobs are managed in the field.
Sessions led by Amanda Comunale of Victaulic (Easton, PA) andDutch Martinez of Harder Mechanical (Portland, OR) and Lean consultant Dennis Sowards (Mesa, AZ) provided more perspectives and insights on managing fabrication processes effectively and profitably.
Attendees also had an opportunity to see the latest technologies during an exhibit presented by Autodesk, BD SysQue, Pentair, DeWalt, Eaton B-Line Series, Get the Point, Milwaukee Tool, Pipe Fabrication Institute, Team Industries, Trimble, Victaulic and Zurn.
