Training department using programmes to explain technology

 

A new engineering training department has been announced by Allied Machine & Engineering, which will provide comprehensive hands on education programmes for new employees, end users and distributors from around the world.

The new 3,000 square foot facility, located in Dover, Ohio, includes two vertical and one horizontal machining centre to showcase the complete range of Allied’s tools. Each machining centre features a dedicated camera with a live feed directly to 60” monitors, giving participants an excellent view of tools in action. Demonstrations are available featuring Allied tools running in a wide variety of materials including low carbon steel, alloy steel, high strength alloy, 304 and 17-4 stainless steel, structural steel plates, 6061 aluminium, and iron.

Training demonstrations include active participation, with attendees helping to select speeds and feeds.

The training department instructs new Allied associates in the proper use and application of Allied’s tooling in all phases of holemaking solutions in metal. Trainees participate in a three month technical and hands-on training programme focusing on how the tools work and where to apply them in various applications. 

For end users and the distributors who support them, Allied offers an intense two-and-a-half-day Technical Educational Seminar (TES), featuring classroom and metal cutting demonstrations. These seminars, limited to groups of 15-30 attendees, are designed to keep participants abreast of the latest industry trends and the technology offered.

For those unable to travel to the Dover, OH training facility, the training department sponsors open house events held at machine tool manufacturers’ distributors, as well as on-site training programmes for engineers and machinists. Customisable training programmes are available for groups of all sizes. 

“We are extremely excited to unveil this unique new training environment, which combines hands-on learning, interactive classroom demonstrations, and access to the latest tools Allied has to offer,” said Andrew Fliger, Allied’s Engineering Trainer. “Our training programmes are focused to equip participants with the right tooling and knowledge for the jobs they’re facing today.”
