EDITORIAL GUIDELINES

AUDIENCE MAN-Modern Applications News is an industry-respected, monthly electronic eNewsletter with a circulation of more than 70,000 qualified metalworking professionals. MAN’s target market is the high-tech job shop, OEM and contract manufacturer in both machining and fabricating environments... those that work to close tolerances and high quality, in materials ranging from mild steel to exotic metals, producing prototypes, one-offs, and short to full production runs.

CONTENT MAN prefers case histories of job shops, OEM's and contract manufacturers. Articles should be between 300 and 1000 words and provide in detail how a process or technology has improved efficiency or saved time, money, increased the quality of products, or made the company more competitive. The article should examine the company’s initial challenge, the company’s main line of business, the solution the company found, and why the product worked in that application.

SUBMISSIONS MAN invites your company to submit new products and news editorial for the job shop market. Our editors monitor and evaluate news releases on a daily basis for possible inclusion in the next issue.
