Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM) Introduction

COORDINATE MEASURING MACHINE (CMM) INTRODUCTION DVD SELF-DIRECTED TRAINING The operator is the most important part of your CMM. A small investment in operator training will maximize productivity, increase the return on your substantial equipment investment and allow you to use this sophisticated machinery to your best competitive advantage. This practical program begins with an easily grasped explanation of how a CMM works, includes step-by-step visual demonstrations and provides a series of hands-on exercises in measuring practice parts which are included in the program materials. Per-Use training* - This course is available on a "Per-Use" basis. The cost for this option is $195 per person. If you would like a comprehensive Application Guide created specifically to follow along with this course, it is available for $39 (includes shipping). Also available is an Instructor’s Guide $95 (includes shipping) which includes answers to all of the problems in the student Application Guide. This is far more than a self-study course. To get the most out of this course, an expert instructor is available for questions as you take this course, so you are definitely not on your own! After successful completion of this course, each registered student will receive an official Certificate of Completion.
