Here to help you on your way to success.

Welcome to our Productivity Center, one of 22 which has been certified by AB Sandvik Coromant as offering state-of-the-art demonstration and training facilities to our customers across the globe.

The world is very much the marketplace for today’s metal cutting industry. Staying competitive means companies must consider the key areas of skills, investment and efficiency - all vital in adding value to your company’s offer.

Increasingly, engineering companies in the UK are moving towards producing more sophisticated, higher-value machined parts to establish their competitive advantage. Naturally, this requires higher levels of proficiency and expertise from engineers and underlines the importance of training to maintain this advantage.

Developing such skills is a fundamental part of our offer to you. This booklet outlines a carefully worked out series of training programmes designed to improve the competence of your teams and put their new found skills into practice.

Daily supportMaximising your productivity is our ongoing commitment. Our Sales Engineers in the field are always ready to ensure the key lessons of the training programme are applied on the shop floor. Don’t hesitate to call upon their expertise.

Put training at the centre of your plans for future productivity.

Introduction

Mick FletcherProductivity Center &

Training Manager

All of our training courses are designed to improve manufacturing capability by focusing upon the key elements which affect metalcutting:

•improving component quality•minimising downtime•increasing throughput•improving engineering competence

We recognise the need for flexibility when arranging a training schedule. Therefore training can be held at our Productivity Center at Halesowen or at your own facility. In either case, we carefully prepare the material to provide immediate relevance for your own machining environment and needs.

This booklet describes a range of ‘standard’ courses from an elementary to advanced level. In addition, bespoke training packages can be provided.

The resources of our Productivity Center are also available for machining trials. Our specialists are on hand to offer their expertise too. Please ask for details.

CapabilityThe essence of our training experience Centers on the practical, everyday use of tooling and the methods involved in their application. The outcome is that our training material has immediate context to your own machines, materials and processes.

All theory-based training takes place in training rooms equipped with modern audio-visual aids. In the workshop, each machine is equipped with cameras, allowing easy, close-up viewing of the cutting process on a screen whilst metal cutting is taking place.
