To assist in training the next generation of manufacturing professionals, ACU-RITE is offering deep discounts on its line of DRO's and MILLPWR G2 CNC retrofit packages.
The company offers DRO systems for mills, lathes, grinders and EDM machines as well as the MILLPWR G2 control package for knee mills.
Additionally, HEIDENHAIN is offering a collection of educational services and products to meet the demands for today's digitization of data in NC metalworking. This worldwide initiative, called the HEIDENHAIN Education Support Program (HESP), brings the latest advancements on the shop floor to current classrooms of vocational training centers, universities and corporate trainee programs.
"Digital services and their remarkable speed are now commonplace and only growing," said a company spokesperson. "With HESP, HEIDENHAIN is making its own important contribution to training the next generation of metalworkers by providing cost-effective, state-of-the-art resources to educators that can include computer programming stations, software and learning materials for fast and accurate milling and turning needs. HESP also includes offers to train the trainers at significantly reduced prices."
HEIDENHAIN's programming stations are based on the same software foundation as its CNC controls, thus making them ideal vocational training tools to give students the confidence they need to program in the manufacturing world. HESP's learning materials include practical course supplies for explaining complex topics, as well as support posters for the classroom.
"Those who are familiar with HEIDENHAIN will especially appreciate the special opportunity for educators to obtain HEIDENHAIN's Connecting Machining package of functions and its StateMonitor MDA software, as well as the option of its online HEIDENHAIN Interactive Training (HIT) program. Full program details are available on the HESP microsite: hesp.heidenhain.com.
