Four companies have begun piloting a new
apprenticeship model in Wisconsin. NIMS is a competency- based model that
assesses students on specific skill sets. Unlike the current apprenticeship
model, there is no time requirement.
Boeing has approved KLH Industries as a
machining supplier for NASA’s Space Launch System (SLS) program. The SLS is a
flagship rocket system that will set new standards for commercial and deep
space exploration.
KLH will celebrate 25 years of precision machining by hosting a live broadcast of WKLH’s morning show “Dave & Carole.” The program will coincide with a morning job fair, followed by an afternoon open house.
KLH Industries has always operated with a simple motto, “Sell what people want to buy.” The message is clear; people want CNC turning. With the voice of the customer in mind, KLH has purchased three new turning centers.
After a year in the making, the new KLH Industries.com was shaped with the voice of the customer. We e-mailed, we called, we asked, “How can a precision machining website help you?”
KLH Industries has been nominated as a 2011 Wisconsin Manufacturer of the Year (MOTY). This is KLH's third consecutive nomination in the small business category.
There's a familiar hum of spindle motors at KLH. A pleasing ping of metal chips as they spatter into the scrap bin and a sharp smell of coolant mist inside the machines. There's no mistaking the sounds and smells of CNC machining.
For the fifth time in its history, KLH Industries will double its manufacturing square footage. The entire CNC department will be relocating to a newly renovated facility, to better house a growing department.
If you happened to see the launch of space shuttle STS-135, NASA's final space mission, there was one thing you couldn't see from the ground or television - the KLH-made part inside the shuttle.
For much of the early years, KLH Industries rode the wave of a new technology called wire EDM. In the modern days of KLH, measuring, planning, and preparing for stable growth is a primary focus.
