        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.

        Course participants:
        • Mr. Lindenau from Aluminium Norf GmbH
        • Mr. Gansera from Rose Systemtechnik GmbH
        • Mr. Günes from Schott AG
