The company makes products for hot and cold sections of engines known as turbines and compressors. In addition to commercial aerospace, the company's markets include military aerospace and the energy-sector engine markets. The advanced-manufacturing experts at Numet develop processes and perform machining of complex geometries, using materials like titanium and nickel. www.Numet.net Address: 235 Edison Rd., Orange, CT 06477 Phone: 203-375-4995 Full-time employees: 70 Year founded: 1984 President & CEO: Tim Ulles COO: Joe Sartori C O M PA N Y P R O F I L E Numet is a major provider to the big aero-engine original equipment manufacturers, or OEMs: Pratt & Whitney and General Electric.

"There are different tasks, issues, parts, processes ... It is a never-ending journey. Every day you will learn something new."
