The New Face of Blue Collar.

For years, the media has told us manufacturing is dead in the U.S. But hundreds of American companies are sharpening their competitive edge with a new kind of, highly technical blue collar worker. This inspiring short video profiles what’s happening at Greenville, SC-based ADEX Machining Technologies.

Rather than just operate a machine, the employee programs it and also acts as machinist and quality control engineer. The result is a workforce that’s leaner and more adaptable to changes in the production process.

Stories like ADEX are emerging everywhere. The American manufacturing landscape is alive again, driven by smarter processes and a new class of exceptionally talented workers.

At Master Power Transmission, we congratulate ADEX for being at the forefront of this new wave of competitiveness in American industry.
