Throwback 1981 – KELLER in newspaper
On this #ThrowbackThursday, we’re whisking you away to the year 1981 for a glimpse into the early days of “KELLER”. Back then, our visionary founder Siegfried Keller was making an impact as a dedicated teacher at an industrial school, yet the seeds of “KELLER” were already sown.
Check out this captivating headline from the August 1981 issue of “Die ZEIT” newspaper, which proves the early existence of “KELLER”: “New ways in Wuppertal. A teacher brings modern techniques to vocational school lessons”. (The article is in German, by the way!)
Today, we celebrate our roots and honor the journey that has led us to where we are now. It’s remarkable how “KELLER” has evolved over the years. Here’s to progress, passion, and the enduring spirit of innovation!

Throwback 1985 – Model for CNC training
It’s #ThrowbackThursday, and this time we’re taking a trip back to the year 1985. We stumbled upon this vintage info sheet that outlines a “Model for CNC training” in just 3 simple steps. It’s fascinating to see how far technology has come since then – those screens and computers have definitely come a long way! But we’re curious, what else do you think has changed in the world of CNC training?

Happy Easter 2023!
Oops, who nibbled on the bunny’s ears? Fortunately, that can’t happen to a metal bunny, thanks to the crash warning in our SYMplus™ CNC software. This protects both bunny’s ears and expensive CNC machines.
Regardless of whether the bunnies are made of chocolate or metal, the KELLER.Software team wishes you a happy Easter holiday! We’ll be back again on Tuesday (11.04.).
And: next week there are still places available in the KELLER.Academy. The topic: “Basics of graphic programming (CAD/CAM) with SYMplus™”.
