As we start the last week of #ManufacturingMonth, here is the next video created by students of Manatee Technical College's Digital Technology Video program. Today, we highlight Pad Printing Technology in Bradenton, owned by Keith Ekenseair. Pad printing generates ultra-high quality imprints on a wide variety of 2D and 3D items. This is a career path that is as much scientific as it is artistic. #SeeYourselfInMFG #MFGDay24 #FLMFGMonth24 #MEPNationalNetwork
