Training in the world of MILLTURN
WFL offers customers basic, operator, programmer or service training and much more as further and advanced training. Our training options cover all requirements for programmers, machine operators and service technicians. The complexity of the MILLTURNs makes training essential and helps to ensure optimum handling. It enables complex and automated machining strategies to be implemented on MILLTURNs and therefore also ensure a long service life for the MILLTURN.
Ongoing training not only guarantees maximum productivity on the production line, but also increases staff motivation and makes it easier to respond to new production tasks. Thanks to our experienced, in-house trainers, the machine's potential is fully utilised, operating errors are minimised and practical technical knowledge with real-life benefit is passed on to the customer. The training content is adapted in line with the machine configuration. Customised client training is also possible. The trainers enjoy tackling customer-specific and technical production challenges and are happy to develop new ideas and solutions for the WFL machines together with the participants.
Our training centre has a fresh new look
Our training centre has been modernised over the last couple of months. Despite the renovations, there were no interruptions to our training activities, so we were able to provide ongoing optimum support to our customers in a wide range of situations.
The facilities have had a fresh coat of paint and have been furnished with new tables and chairs for better ergonomics. What's more, our redesigned recreation room now is now the perfect place to take a break and offers plenty of space for discussions, sharing ideas and information and enjoying a quick snack or caffeine-booster in between. The outdoor space has also had a facelift. A new facade and decal in the blue WFL font now finishes off the training centre.
The centre now has 16 workstations, divided across three rooms, for training sessions. Nonetheless, the individual in-house training sessions are limited to six participants. This allows the trainers to better address all the specific questions about the machine. Training sessions can also be held at the customer's premises in the plant, directly at the MILLTURN.
What can my MILLTURN do?
The basic training gives participants sound expert knowledge of CNC machine operation and programming as well as general IT skills. The five-day course covers the following in detail: the fundamental principles, path info, technological functions, tool correction, contour description, front face and lateral surface machining, help function list, tool supplementation data, machine and machining cycles, workpiece measurement, and zero-point offset. Furthermore, customers gain an in-depth understanding of the individual tool change systems or machine concepts, to ensure a smooth, productive machining process.
A knowledge refresher
In addition to the basic course, there are, as already mentioned, also numerous other training courses. One such course is the WFL Refresh Training. As the name suggests, this refreshes the participants knowledge of mechanics and electrics and builds upon it.
This two-day workshop caters to all customer requests and specific questions and can be held in German or English. What does the WFL Refresh Training cover specifically? Explanations of the machine documentation, including the operating manual for the purchased parts and daily, weekly and annual maintenance. It also covers machine geometry checks, installation and removal of chucks and steady rests, as well as adjusting the steady rest and setting the machine geometry with regard to the angle setting device and compound slides, headstocks and B-axes, not to mention additional tips and tricks on how to operate one's own MILLTURN.
Online courses in the WFL Academy
The WFL Academy also offers the option of booking an online training session. The topics covered are CrashGuard Studio Basic, measuring technology, special cycles, iControl and WFL GearCAM. You can enquire about online training sessions by emailing manufacturingsolutions(at)wfl.at.,
