Mallory Industries is committed to a culture that is rooted in lean manufacturing initiatives. Employees are constantly trained in setup reduction, mistake proofing, standardized work and root-cause analysis. Other lean concepts include 6S workplace organization, visual boards, kitting for all machining jobs, total preventive maintenance, and daily Gemba meetings and shopfloor walks

The apprenticeship program in place at Mallory Industries is beneficial in a number of ways. For example, apprentices produce while learning; there’s reduced turnover because apprentices know they have jobs with a future; it serves as a dependable source of trained workers; and it leads to improved labor relations because the program is a cooperative effort between employee and employer.

Mallory Industries has a range of machining capabilities. Resources include 34 cam milling machines, five turning centers, two six-axis turn-mills, seven three- and four-axis VMCs and one HMC as well as EDM, grinding and honing equipment. The shop also has two CMMs, a laser marking machine, a tool presetter and manual machines. Still, its focus on workforce development has also been a key to its success. This is exemplified by its winning the “Young Adult Employer Champions” award through its promotion of effective hiring techniques and access to onsite training and skills-development opportunities.
