    CNC Events in Florida???

    Just wondering if anyone out there would know of any events or shows in the Florida area??? Specifically around Tampa??? I know CNC isn't that big down here but it's big enough to have a demand for it.

    If anyone has any information on an up coming event I would appreciate some feedback!

    Thank you :idea:

    There's a manufacturing show in march at the orange county convention center and its free. You can find it on their website or one of the various trade show search websites. I wish there were some manufacturing expos that had seminars and stuff, they often have really good up to date info.

    EDIT: Just saw you work for Aerotek and that they were at the Power Gen show. Were you there? I wish I had known I would've stopped by and said hi. (I am graduating with a BSME in about two years and have a pretty strong manufacturing background)

    Really? That's awesome! No I wasn't there with Aerotek during that show, they were our Energy divison reps. I'm in the commercial divison. I want to try and go to some seminars/shows to have a better understanding of CNC as a craft so that I can level with people when I have conversations with them. But we are hiring a lot of CNC Machinists in TAmpa as of lately, you guys are just super hard to find down here!!:wave:

    I would be all over it but I currently have an amazing Engineering Tech/CNC Machinist job here for a microwave engineering company that is very flexible with school. How wide of an area do you cover? I am in Orlando.

    My office covers all of Tampa, Clearwater, St Pete, Largo, Plant City, Brandon up to Brooksville, Springhill and Hudson FL. We have an office in the Orlando area that deals with positions in central florida. Occasionally we help out other offices if we have a great candidate for a position they have open, it just depends on the situation.

    It's just been hard finding CNC machinist since we saturated the area for this one company here.

    I know Sarasota has a pretty well equipped machinist school. The students obviously wouldn't meet your two year requirement, but when I visited them they had a very well equipped shop.

    There is the largest woodworking show in the US in Atlanta Georgia, IWF. Not right in your backyard, but well worth the trip. It is held every two years, on the even ones. I have been to more than a dozen of these, there is CNC galore. Look up IWF 2012. Yes, it is next year, but put it on your schedule.

    Hard to find? I am right here!. Tampa,FL also. A lot of us are already employed working 50 hours as it is (if you want to).

    I believe you guys called me several times last month. Sorry, didn't answer already employed.


    How is the demand for engineers with machining background? I might come to you when I graduate with my engineering degree.

    There's a yearly conference that DP technologies holds for their ESPRIT cad/cam program. Although its in different locations every year. This year it was held in Miami. The weather was beautiful. It's already passed though. It was the last week of may. There are various courses you can schedule. Alot of them very informational. The course will run you about $1200 though.

    There is also the upcoming Pacific tool show in September. Held in Santa Clara,CA if anyone if near.
