New webinar on YouTube: Virtual Shop Floor – Clamping: Mechanical and Hydraulic (Part 1)
Our “Virtual Shop Floor” Webinar Series is now available on our YouTube-Channel with English subtitles! In the first part of the webinar, we delve into the world of Mechanical and Hydraulic Clamping techniques. More segments of this Webinar series are already in the works and will be coming soon.
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.
