Throwback 2004 – Students learn enthusiastically with SYMplus™
#ThrowbackThursday! Today, we take a trip back to 2004.
In this photo, you can see students exploring the CNC world with SYMplus™.
A lot has changed since then: from bulky tube monitors to sleek screens, from clunky keyboards to elegant designs, from hefty desktop towers to slim laptops that fit in your backpack.
SYMplus™ has evolved as well, but our values remain the same: With ease, experience the CNC world.

Throwback 1985 – Heidenhain TNC control system KELLER keyboard
Get your floppy disk, V-neck sweater, and shoulder pads ready because on this #ThrowbackThursday, we’re taking you on a journey back to the ’80s.
In the photo, you can see a Nixdorf 8810 M75 Personal Computer with a ‘Color Monitor’ – boasting an impressive 640 KB of storage space! In comparison, today’s home and office computers typically have storage capacities ranging from 256 GB to 1 TB. In fields like video editing and 3D modelling, they can even go up to 4 TB, and there seems to be no limit in sight.
Right in front of this cutting-edge computer from that era, you’ll find a keyboard created by KELLER for the Heidenhain TNC 155 control system used in CNC training. This provided trainees with a 1:1 experience of the original control system and even had a connection to the CNC machine.

Quick Design and Production with SYMplus™
KELLER.Software offers efficient solutions for your manufacturing process. Boost your Productivity with our CNC-Software SYMplus™.
- Geometry: With the graphical user interface of SYMplus™, you can quickly take workpiece contours from drawings, even if they are not NC-compliant. Alternatively, you can import contours and drilling patterns from CAD drawing data (e.g., DXF). After creating the geometry, you’ll see the finished workpiece in 3D.
- Workplan: SYMplus™’s residual quantity detection ensures short program runtimes. Select the tool and the strategy, and the system automatically detects the remaining quantities. An integrated crash monitoring provides additional safety.
- Postprocessor: Choose the appropriate postprocessor for your CNC machine or controller, and SYMplus™ generates the NC program. Transfer it via USB stick, network, or serial data connection (depending on the controller’s capabilities).
- Tool Data: In the tool database, you can input the optimal speeds, cutting speeds, feeds, and cutting depths for different materials. This gives you the most precise settings for your production at the touch of a button.
