Tooling U and PMA Form Online Training Partnership
In an effort to continue to expand the curriculum at Tooling U, we recently
formed a partnership with PMA, the Precision Metalforming Association, that
will allow us to increase our Stamping curriculum. The content
partnership with PMA brings Stamping materials that have already been reviewed
by technical experts and are mapped to the NIMS standards. For more information
on the addition of Stamping classes, contact Greg Jones at (866) 706-8665.
New Books and Merchandise on the Shelves of the Tooling U BookStore
Visit
http://www.toolingu.com/bookstore and buy
some of the hottest books on the latest topics in metalworking, including Lean
Manufacturing, Statistical Process Control, EDM, and MODERN MACHINE SHOP’s
Handbook for the Metalworking Industries. You can also find a Machinist’s
Calculator in the BookStore by
clicking here. The easy-to-use MC-20
Machinist Calculator is a compact, hand-held device programmed with built-in
formulas. Machinists can quickly and easily establish speeds, feeds, and time
without the guesswork or clumsy conversion charts. In addition to all of the
other Tooling U gear you can find in the BookStore, we have added Tooling U
baseball caps. Plus, for a limited time, you will receive a free Tooling U
travel coffee mug with your purchase of a book from the Tooling U BookStore.
(See the BookStore for details.)
