CNC machines are staple equipment in most engineering and technical/ vocational institutions. Learning how to program and operate CNC machines is an important skill, much needed in the manufacturing industry. The skills are evolving as CNC users will be working with sensors and the cloud as part of their daily responsibilities. Smart sensors are gathering data from the CNC machines and feeding the data points into the cloud for analysis. Such monitoring allows the user to know health of their machines, schedule preventive maintenance and manage productivity. Working with sensors is going to become ubiquitous.
At MTAB, we are bringing these concepts into the hands of faculty and trainers through our range of IoT ready CNC machines, elearning and apps. Make sure you ask us about these solutions.
