From Practical Experience to Teaching Confidence: Trainers Strengthen CNC Skills at the KELLER.Academy
Even trainers sometimes need training themselves. Mr. Schöntag from Motion Makers GmbH has plenty of hands-on experience at the machine, but for his role in vocational training, he wanted to gain a deeper understanding of how SYMplus™ is structured and how the PAL (CNC) basics are applied in practice.
For that, the course “Basic DIN/PAL programming with SYMplus™” was the perfect choice.
Thank you for visiting the KELLER.Academy, Mr. Schöntag!

CNC knowledge – ready to go! (KELLERAcademy)
In our course “Basics of DIN/PAL Programming with SYMplus™”, participants spent 1.5 days writing and simulating programs, setting up tools, magazines and turrets, and creating their own gap-filling exercises. Add to that lots of engaging discussions – and plenty of fun while experimenting.
A big thank you to our participants – we had a really great time with you! Maybe we’ll see each other again soon in a follow-up course.
