New ACU-RITE Technology Education Center Opens
February 1, 2021
"Continuing to emphasize its Customer First initiative during these uncertain times, HEIDENHAIN has announced the opening of a new ACU-RITE Technology Education Center in the Chicago suburbs," said a company spokesperson. This new ACU-RITE Technology Education Center (ATEC) is now open and will provide support to its North American customers and prospects with direct access to see and use all of its current ACU-RITE machine tool components, as well as the ability to call upon its expert trainers.
"Now, by appointment and with safety/cleaning protocols in place, special access can be granted to view and test all of ACU-RITE's full line of current products, including its popular controls, digital readouts (DROs), encoders and accessories as applied to various machine tools," said the spokesperson. Machine tools currently hosted at ATEC include ACU-RITE's 3-axis MILLPWRG2 control system on a vertical knee mill and 2-axis TURNPWR control on a tool room lathe, all fully functional.
"We understand the importance of supporting North American manufacturing, maybe more so now than ever before," said John Parker, HEIDENHAIN's Business Development Manager for the ACU-RITE brand. "We believe it is our job to help machinists best equip their shop with the top tools and tips to move jobs through their systems quickly and most accurately. ACU-RITE machine tool components and experts are here to help make that happen. ATEC is just one more instrument of support."
Custom training sessions can now be arranged at ATEC in Schaumburg, IL, as well as private meetings to review product options and discuss specific application needs. Standard training sessions are listed on the website.
