The benefits of attending a regional AmCon show are significant. The Grand Rapids, Michigan event will be held at DeVos Place on September 17-18, 2008.

According to Kati Olson, President, “We are excited to be returning to the Michigan market for this show in the fall of 2008. AmCon is the only show in Michigan specifically targeting OEM engineering and purchasing professionals who are looking for job shop and contract manufacturing services. Highly qualified prospects, often with blueprints in hand, will come from throughout Michigan, and northern Indiana.”

 

Top manufacturers from Michigan and Indiana sent engineers and buyers to the 2007 show. Below is just a sample of some of the firms that attended last year:

AAR Mobility Systems, Access Business Group, ADAC Automotive, Altocor, American Axle & Mfg., Amway, American Seating, Behr Industries Corp., Bosch Rexroth, Brunswick Bowling, Cascade Engineering, Caterpillar, Chrysler, Cummins Bridgeway, Dart Container, Delphi Automotive, Dematic, Denso Mfg. MI, Dover Corp., Eaton Corp.,  Flexfab LLC, Ford Motor Company, GE Aviation, GM Design PPO, General Motors, Gentex Corp., Gill Industries, Harbor Industries, Hart & Cooley, Haworth, Herman Miller, Hitachi Automotive, Holland Group, Howard Miller, Howmet, Johnson Controls, Johnson Technology, L-3 Communications, LuK USA LLC, Lacks Enterprises,  Magna Donnelly, Mahle Powertrain, Newmar Corp., ODL, Inc., Parker Aerospace, Parker Hannifin, Paulstra, CRC, Pridgeon & Clay, Royal Plastics, Shape Corp., Siemans OGS, Steelcase NA, Steelcase Wood, Stryker Instruments, Stryker Medical, Symmetry Medical, TAC Manufacturing, Trane, Unisys,  and Viking Corp.

 

Engineers and buyers attending an AmCon Contract Manufacturing Expo can find one or multiple sources to take a project from concept or prototype to finished product quickly and at competitive prices. OEMs can find sources for engineering, design, prototypes, forming, fabricating, machining, finishing, assembly and electronic manufacturing services all under one roof. Whether looking for one part or production runs, attendees find multiple sources from which to choose.  AmCon offers attendees a unique opportunity to investigate a variety of manufacturing options, both new and traditional, and find the best processes and materials for specific applications. Attendees view actual samples of products that have been produced for other OEMs in their industry and can get quotes on current projects and compare quality, pricing, and lead times from multiple vendors all in a few hours. Only AmCon shows provide a “hands on” one-on-one education. Since the exhibits are staffed with top management and technical personnel, attendees have an in-depth discussion regarding project design, materials and production issues. AmCon shows are free, including seminars on a variety of manufacturing processes and quality issues.   Fall 2008 AmCon shows include Grand Rapids, MI - Sept. 17-18; Fort Lauderdale, FL - Sept. 23-24; Minneapolis, MN - Oct. 7-8; Phoenix, AZ - Oct. 14-15; Houston, TX - Oct. 29-30; Greensboro, NC - Nov. 18-19.
