General Info

In 1973, Missouri Pressed Metals began producing manufactured sintered metal bearings, bushings and structural parts made from powdered iron and bronze. That same year, the company was housed in a 5,000 square-foot building, operating with three presses and a full time staff of five. The plant now encompasses approximately 40,000 square-feet, with more than 75 presses and 100 employees. In 1998 Oklahoma Pressed Metals, located in Miami, Okla., merged its operations with Missouri Pressed Metals and the two became known as MO-PRESS. The company produces sintered powdered metal products for a variety of industries. Powder metallurgy is a highly developed method of manufacturing ferrous and nonferrous parts. A large number of industries have discovered PM to be an efficient and cost-effective alternative to machined parts, castings and forgings. This process is proven to provide greater strength, durability and performance. MO-PRESS is headquartered in Sedalia, Mo.
