Case Study: Gateway Technical College builds advanced manufacturing skills with FANUC CNC and robotics training tools

Gateway Technical College uses FANUC CNC and robotics training tools to produce a highly skilled workforce to install, operate and maintain advanced automation solutions

Gateway Technical College, a technical college in Southwest Wisconsin, needed training tools that would help meet the growing demand for skilled advanced manufacturing workers, align instruction with industry needs, and add IoT data analytics education. FANUC America Corporation provided CNC and robotics training products, including robots, ROBODRILLs, CNC simulators, and software for connected manufacturing learning.

With FANUC America Corporation’s equipment and software, students get hands-on experience with real industry technology and learn IoT data monitoring and analytics through tools such as MT-LINKi, FASDATA, and ZDT. The result is a workforce pipeline of Advanced Manufacturing Technology graduates with technical skills that are highly sought out by employers, better prepared to install, operate, and maintain advanced automation systems.
