On the evening of Thursday, February 27th Machine Inc. hosted the BTMA for a membership get-together event. The Boston Tooling and Machining Association is the local affiliate chapter of the National Tooling and Machining Association. We reconnected with fellow members and created new connections as we kicked off the first meeting of the year. Our members gave updates about what was happening in our community and shared our unique stories.
We were also joined by students and instructors from local vocational machining programs. The evening presented a unique opportunity to learn about their experiences. Members were also able to engage with the next generation of machinists and their parents. Additionally, some of our legislative leaders had been invited to this event. They had the chance to see the production floor firsthand. Doing so helps understand the importance of continuing support for advanced manufacturing programs in our state, as well as recognizing career opportunities that are available.

The BTMA
The Boston Tooling and Machining Association is comprised of precision custom manufacturing companies. Members reach from across Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Maine, and Rhode Island. They range from small businesses with just 2 employees, to much larger companies, many of which are family-owned and operated.
Members’ capabilities span from design and build prototyping to the production of high-quality parts for industries such as automotive, aerospace, electronics, power generation, appliances, environmental, defense, construction, and medical. Most members hold prestigious certifications, including ISO 9001, AS 9100, NADCAP, and ITAR compliance, ensuring the highest standards of quality and excellence.
In addition to the benefits of membership through the NTMA, the members of the BTMA have local opportunities to network and learn. Further, our local chapter meetings foster connections through company tours, dinner presentations, technology showcases, breakfast seminars, and social events.
