This year at PMI, we recognize an important 10-year anniversary. In the late 90’s, our members set about to create the “new” PMI to meet the needs of a changing industry and redefine the role of our trade association. With the hiring of PMI’s first employee, Barbara Higgens in April 1998, PMI was up and going. Under Barbara’s supervision we have made great progress and are well positioned for the issues we face in the year ahead. “The pessimist complains about the wind. The optimist expects it to change. The realist adjusts the sails.” “I have no idea who wrote that but I very much appreciate the sentiment which is carved into a little rock paper weight on my desk at PMI. It forms the basis for success in life, in business and as an individual. I am a collector of such words of wisdom. If you have been to the PMI office you have wandered through a gallery of these inspirational gems. While it is, of course, impossible to boil down centuries of management advice or decades-long career wisdom into bumper stickers, such tidbits help light the way. Some of what is written is so obvious that it is painful. (How did Who Moved My Cheese? Get to be a best-seller so many years ago? Isn’t that common sense? Guess not!)” More >>> Products & Services
Stage lamps are used for stage, studio, or television lighting. They are often made of quartz instead of glass to provide higher pressure ratings, higher melting temperatures, and more energy-efficient designs.
Linear limit switches are electromechanical devices that require physical contact between a target object and switch activator to make the contacts change state.
Electro-pneumatic transducers convert current or voltage input signals to proportional output pressures. They are used as process control elements in valves, pneumatic relays, and flow regulators for applications such as spray and damper control.
Industrial chassis and card cages are metal frames that support and contain electronic components and power supplies. They generally have a backplane with slots to install other peripherals and accessories.
CNC routers are computer-controlled machines that are capable of cutting complex two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) shapes with router bits that spin at high speeds.
