What I liked
Pro Metal was very welcoming, helpful, and determined. The entire staff is kind to everyone and treats each other as family. Pro Metal has high standards and it is easy to associate it with how hard everyone works. As an intern I learned more than I could have ever hoped for. I learned how to program, setup, and operate multiple different machines. I got to see how the entire business works, from engineering aspects of how to create fiber laser programs to be used in the shop. Then the entire manufacturing process it goes through to create the final part. From press brakes, pemming, welding, deburring, etc... One project in particular I got to work on was using Solid Works to create new steps for their company truck. I took measurements on the old rusted steps, created the 3D model, converted it into the fiber laser software, and manufactured it. This internship has been a great experience and I could not be more thankful for my opportunity to work here.
