Upcoming Meetings & Events

Have you ever wondered how plastic can look like leather with stitching? Or if that wood grain was real or not? Or how plastic or metal products proudly represent a corporate image?
Join us on September 19th and learn more!

Every day we see plastic and metal parts with looks and feels due to the surface structure or texture of those parts. Texturing—sometimes referred to as graining or engraving—is the process of adding a pattern (the texture or grain) to the molding surface of a mold.

SPE MKE is proud to offer a plant tour of Wisconsin Engraving. Located in the heart of America’s Dairyland in New Berlin, Wisconsin Engraving has been an independently owned business since 1922, offering a century’s worth of expertise in full-service engraving, polishing, and texturing. They offer high-quality services and tools for the plastic injection, thermoforming, roto-molding, blow molding, and metal stamping industries. Wisconsin Engraving is a member of the Tool, Die, & Machining Association of Wisconsin (TDMAW), the American Mold Builders Association (AMBA), and the Society of Plastics Engineers (SPE).

Register here! We look forward in seeing you on the 19th!
