M&M Quality Grinding

Attending the Illinois Manufacturers' Association 2025 Women Makers event was a valuable experience. The discussions were direct, insightful, and relevant to the challenges women face in manufacturing. ? Regina Bynote Jones, Sr. VP, General Counsel & Corporate Secretary at ADM, shared how setbacks shaped her career and the value of a “Kitchen Cabinet” for support. Anna Valencia, Office of the City Clerk, City of Chicago, spoke on the realities of public service as a woman and the need for male allyship in male-dominated industries. Kelsey Phillips, Relationship Executive at JPMorganChase, shared a personal perspective on manufacturing’s impact through her family’s work in the automotive sector. ? The breakout sessions added depth. Events like this matter because they move the conversation from inspiration to action. #WomenMakers #Leadership #WomenInManufacturing #Manufacturing #Networking?

Let’s talk in the comments. #MMQualityGrinding #ManufacturingInnovation #PrecisionGrinding #PrecisionMachining #CenterlessGrinding #Manufacturing

???Precision Ground Bar in Aerospace: Built for Performance??? In aerospace, precision is non-negotiable. Every component must function flawlessly under extreme conditions. That’s why engineers rely on precision ground bar. ???Tight Tolerances & Smooth Finishes Precision ground bar ensures exact fits for critical components like fasteners, bushings, and shafts. ???Strength & Durability Designed for high stress and harsh environments, top materials include: ??17-4 PH Stainless Steel (Grade 630):?High strength, corrosion resistant. ??Grade 5 Titanium Alloy (Ti-6Al-4V):?Lightweight, excellent strength-to-weight ratio. ??4340 Alloy Steel:?Exceptional toughness, fatigue resistant. ???Efficiency in Manufacturing Precision grinding minimizes extra machining, reducing time and cost without sacrificing quality. For aerospace parts that carry serious responsibility, precision ground bar isn’t optional, it’s required. #AerospaceEngineering #MMQualityGrinding #ManufacturingInnovation #Manufacturing #aerospace #PrecisionGrinding #PrecisionMachining #CenterlessGrinding

Not All Grinding is Loud & Messy… Some of It is Pure Art ???? When you hear the word grinding, what do you picture? Sparks flying? Loud machinery? At M&M Quality Grinding, it’s more than just metal on metal. It’s an art form. Centerless grinding requires skill, precision, and a deep understanding of tolerances. A single miscalculation can mean the difference between a perfect finish and scrap metal. Not all art hangs in a museum. Some of it rolls off our machines flawlessly straight and polished. What’s your definition of precision? Let’s hear it! ?? #PrecisionAtWork #MMQualityGrinding #HighPerformanceMaterials #ManufacturingInnovation #CenterlessGrinding #ManufacturingExcellence #Precisionmachining #Manufacturing #Innovation

Great people, great conversations! ??? Last week, we had the pleasure of welcoming Nirel Inman?from Chicago Glue & Machine to M&M Quality Grinding! As fellow Illinois Manufacturers' Association board members, it was the perfect chance to catch up, talk shop, and show her around our facility. Manufacturing is about more than machines and materials. It’s about the connections we build along the way. We always appreciate the chance to exchange ideas with industry peers who share our passion for quality and service. Chicago Glue & Machine is a second-generation family business specializing in adhesive solutions and equipment. Founded in 1984, it has grown into a trusted supplier of adhesives and application systems, now led by?Nirel Inman and Brad Siegal.
