“The installation of the new Romi machine in our school was a first in many ways,”says Jim Hokenson, CNC instructor at the Moraine Park Technical College in West Bend, Wisconsin. “It was Romi's first D800AP machine installed in North America and it was Siemens first 828D CNC installation here, and I'm not kidding you,our students were cutting parts on it the very next day.” Such an accelerated learning curve is unusual, Hokenson says, especially since the school had three weeks left in the semester and the students had become familiar with the prevailing job shop CNC platforms being taught.
