1. Mechanics department/Gucheon Vocational Ability Development Center in Hokkaido, Japan
CNC machine program is provided for people seeking work in machinery and employee re-education at Gucheon Vocational Ability Development Center in Hokkaido, Japan. Through practical exercises in the simulator using the computer prior to maneuver machine operation, errors can be reduced and safety enhanced. Education started in 2002 and 300 students are produced per year.

2. Machine Design & Manufacture department/Incheon Human Resource Development Institute, Korea

V-CNC is designed to increase the ability of job-seekers and workers. NC program and machine processing procedures are provided. For students who handle processing machines or are learning the new technique for the first time, educational efficiency is increased by substituting machine maneuver exercises with simulation lessons to make up for the shortage in machine numbers.

Effects of V-CNC from case study

• Through a perfect simulation of the movement and controller of the maneuvering machine used in real-life environment, human resources that can be directly deployed in workplaces can be trained.
• A wide variety of practical exercises with controller and machine is available.
• Training efficiency of NC programming is enhanced to facilitate linked education in CAM.
• After setting up NC program, simulation in advance is possible to enhance the safety of practical exercise equipment.
• Enables a wide variety of practical exercises.
• Can be used to test technicians-Production automation technician/industrial technician, numerical control shelf/milling technician, computerized processing industrial technicians(in case of Korea).
• Prevents in advance the defects that can occur during actual processing through simulation.
• Replaces the training program maneuvering device with a PC to maximize the efficiency of the training budget regarding investment in equipment.
