The important know-how advantage

OpenDMIS

A stand-alone course designed for entry-level operators to learn the fundamentals of the OpenDMIS software. A hands-on approach is taken to guide attendees through inspection program creation: from calibration to reporting. All students are provided a USB drive with standard reference materials, as well as their work created during the week.

  • Classes are broken up by controller/probing type, modifications may be made on a case-by-case basis.
  • Computer proficiency (MS-O, Explorer navigation, etc.), blueprint reading skills, and basic GD&T understanding are recommended prerequisites, but not required for class attendance.
  • All attendees will receive a brief overview and introduction quiz prior to arrival. The completion of this is entirely voluntary, however a timely response will enable an increasingly tailored classroom experience for enrolled students
  • Lunch is included.

The recent update to our Basic OpenDMIS classes has refocused to a hands-on approach to CMM programming both in an offline and online environment. Operators will follow along with the instructor as they calibrate probes, set alignments, inspect features, and report their findings. The goal of this class is for you to return to your own CMM armed with the tools to create basic CNC inspection programs for your own parts. The attendees will use 6-10 print-based exercises to reinforce the basics of programming, and take their written solutions files home with them at the end of class along with OpenDMIS how-to guides, UCC server guides, and other class materials.

Service Training

WENZEL Service Training enables your employees to get help with machinery faults by themselves. This is enhanced due to the modular design of our coordinate measuring machines. Often only a few simple steps are required to bring the system back to work. If the operator is unable to repair the fault, he will at least be able to analyze the exact cause to support our service technicians. Thus, downtime is reduced and working time and costs saved.

This training is usually tailored to the specific machines in your facility and tailored to your specific needs. Therefore the content and outline is created with you by our service manager so that you receive the maximum benefit.

If you are interested in getting training on Servicing your CMM, whether it is at our facility or at your facility, please contact us here.
