Throwback 2004 – Partnership with Haas

“I have seen the future,” wrote Mr. Peter Hall, Managing Director of Haas, almost 20 years ago, on 01/12/2004, in the KELLER guestbook. A special moment that marked the beginning of a longstanding partnership.

The production lines “CNCplus TRAINING” and “CNCplus PRODUCTION” were established shortly thereafter.

    Merry St. Nicholas’ Day!

    Merry St. Nicholas’ Day!

    In Germany, it is a tradition to place polished boots outside the door on the evening of December 5th. According to legend, St. Nicholas then comes by during the night and fills your boots with sweets and small gifts. 🍬

    We may not have sweets for you, but we’ve got a new, interesting video on our YouTube channel!

    Watch how we simulated the St. Nicholas’ house with our SYMplus™ CNC software in four different ways:

    1. G17 IP3 – End face machining with virtual Y-axis
    2. G17 IP5 – End face machining with real Y-axis
    3. G19 IP1 – Surface machining with virtual Y-axis
    4. G19 IP5 – Chord surface machining with real Y-axis

    Wishing you a magical pre-Christmas season from the KELLER.Software team!

        Throwback 1986 – R. & S. KELLER GmbH Foundation

        Did you know that KELLER didn’t start out as a software company, but as a publishing house?

        Under the publisher’s name “R. Keller”, Mrs. Keller first published educational booklets on the topics of CNC machine tools, geometric and technological as well as mathematical basics in 1982. Our SYMplus™ workbooks are still a reminder of this time.

        The success of the products finally led to the founding of R. & S. KELLER GmbH by Mr. and Mrs. Keller in 1986. This photo shows the festivities to celebrate the founding of the company.

            Throwback 2016 – User Meeting

            #ThrowbackThursday to a special milestone at KELLER.Software! Seven years ago, in 2016, our first “KELLER User Meeting” took place.
            These meetings were about more than just dry business discussions; they were primarily about direct exchange with our valued customers, that means with you! Together, we discussed challenges, desired features and progress.
            Back then, we also introduced “plusCARE™,” the all-inclusive package for SYMplus™. Today, it’s an indispensable part of our service!

              New webinar on YouTube: Virtual Shop Floor – How to set up a CNC machine (Part 4)

              Part 4 of our webinar series “Virtual Shop Floor” is now online on YouTube! Of course, again with English subtitles, as with the previous videos.

              This also means the series is complete. The last part is about how you can use the “Virtual Shop Floor” to learn how to set up a CNC machine (manual start-up, setting the zero point, etc.).

              But what exactly is the “Virtual Shop Floor”?
              It’s an innovative 3D learning environment brought to you by our CNC software SYMplus™. This immersive experience provides a fun and educational introduction to the world of workshops, machinery, and CNC controls. The initial hands-on exercises in machine setup will prepare you for real-world applications.

                  Visit from China, Jining University

                  Last Friday, we had the pleasure of welcoming a delegation from Jining University in the Shandong province of China, led by University President Wang Qingming, here in Wuppertal.

                  The ‘School of Industry’ with whom we’ve already signed a letter of intent for the purchase of a SYMplus™ licence in China, was represented by Dr. Zhou Ke, the Director of the CNC department. After a delightful exchange of tea and gifts (including a book made of precious silk), they continued their journey to visit our friends at BZI Remscheid.

                  The KELLER.Software team cherished this valuable opportunity for cultural exchange and looks forward to deepening our collaboration!

                    Throwback 2006 – ZF Friedrichshafen apprentices present SYMplus™ at the METAV

                    A look back into the year 2006: At the METAV trade fair in Düsseldorf, trainees from ZF Friedrichshafen AG were able to demonstrate their skills at the KELLER booth.

                    Using the graphical editor of our CNC software SYMplus™, they showed the audience how easy it is to develop a milled workpiece from contour to production. To finish things off, they then milled live on a Haas machine.

                    Almost 20 years later, SYMplus™ continues to delight with its effortless and time-saving user-friendliness!
