Tormach Announces Personal Manufacturing Workshops
 WAUNAKEE,
WI, Mar 30, 2009 - Tormach, LLC, manufacturer of the PCNC 1100 personal CNC
mill, is now offering CNC FUNDAMENTALS as the first workshop in the new
Personal Manufacturing Series.
The workshop is a hands-on introduction to CNC, from art to part. Each
attendee who completes the 3-day course will build his or her own desktop
Stirling Engine while learning the fundamentals of machine control, workholding
and fixturing, referencing, NC programming, precision measurement, machining
process selection and design for manufacturing.
Optional evening sessions are planned during each workshop with focus on
topics related to starting and running a full-or part- time small manufacturing
business, such as prototyping, product marketing and promotion, protecting
intellectual property, accounting practices, and more.
“Tormach’s mission statement is to empower people who make things,” said Andy
Grevstad, training coordinator. “Educational opportunities like CNC FUNDAMENTALS
will help us to continue to meet that goal for our customers, regardless of CNC
experience.”
CNC FUNDAMENTALS is open to anybody with an interest in learning how to use
the PCNC 1100 or any CNC mill. All abilities are welcome. Basic computer and/or
machining familiarity are helpful, but not necessary.
For a limited time, a $500 coupon towards the purchase of a PCNC 1100 mill
will be offered to workshop attendees. The coupon is valid for 6 mos. after the
date of the workshop.
