ANCORP kicked off our first student tour of the year on Tuesday by welcoming a group of graduate students from the University of Central Florida! The group was comprised of UCF students in the fields of chemistry, physics, and materials science.
ANCORP celebrated National Manufacturing Day today by hosting Bronson High School and Williston Middle High School for a complete tour of our facilities.
A little over 3 years ago, we made our television debut on the Science Channel show How Its Made. Our segment in the episode showcases our patented ball valve manufacturing process from beginning to end, including sawing, drilling, grinding, sanding and deburring, polishing, flange welding, cleaning, assembly, laser engraving, and leak testing.
33 students from the University of Florida’s STEPUP Program visited ANCORP last Friday to tour our facility and to learn more about the world of high vacuum manufacturing and engineering.
ANCORP is pleased to announce that our Director of Engineering, Paul Sergile, was recently featured in the Florida based magazine, “The Florida High Tech Corridor” in their Faces of Technology article.
