“The Manufacturing Ledger” museum exhibit honors manufacturing innovators, advocates, educators

The American Precision Museum, Windsor, Vt., recently launched an interactive digital exhibit called “The Manufacturing Ledger,” currently accessible online and soon to be integrated into a physical exhibit at the museum. This collection of stories and profiles highlights individuals who spent their careers in manufacturing, whether on the shop floor, in engineering or sales, or in the corporate boardroom.

“The Manufacturing Ledger” can relay sponsored profiles and pictures of an infinite number of individuals. The museum welcomes anyone from a variety of manufacturing career categories to be included in the exhibit: machine tool builder, machine tool distributor/importer, manufacturer, educator, and industry advocate (such as associations and media).

Visitors can sort profiles by industry sector, job function, name, and company. There also are search functions to locate those who founded a company and those who invented a technology used in manufacturing. Visitors can also search by various lifetime achievement awards from participating associations.
