C.R. Onsrud, a 2023 winner of the "Coolest Thing Made in NC" competition is hosting a Factory Demo Day on May 8, 2024, allowing manufacturers to see live demonstrations of CNC machines in action. 

The company is opening its factory doors for one day only, and visitors will have the opportunity to tour its 225,000-square-foot campus in Troutman, North Carolina, see live demos, attend educational seminars, ask questions of CNC experts, and build partnerships with CNC manufacturers as well as third-party CNC automation and tooling vendors. 

“We feel this is an important networking event to keep all of us in the manufacturing industry
connected,” said Jeff Onsrud, Director of Sales & Business Development. “We’re looking
forward to speaking to other manufacturers, hearing about the challenges they’re facing, and
together discussing informed solutions.”

At the free event, attendees can see live demonstrations of both 3- and 5-axis machines and wood, metal, composites, and aluminum extrusion applications.
