Dear Subscriber;
As
2009 wore down we were excited to take delivery on our much-improved
mobile training vehicle. The enhanced video displays, the ability to
watch DVDs at each station, the ability to see both an instructor white
board and the overhead projector simultaneously will all make the
learning experience memorable. In addition, the students will be more
comfortable in their learning environment with very good lighting, good
cooling and heating systems as well as background music to enhance the
learning experience. Call Katy Radcliff at (847) 797-9250 to allow us
to take this training experience to your factory!

Part DeMarking and Marking
|
Laser
marking or part demarking can be used to permanently remove or add to
the marking on a component. If you need to make an alloy change during
reballing, eliminate the likelihood that your competitors will steal
your design or add a date code to your parts, then laser marking can
accomplish the task. See more here.

BEST can help bring the skill level of your staff up with the new training vehicle.
This
vehicle is fully outfitted with enough equipment to train (10) students
in soldering, rework and repair processes. The new BEST MTC (Mobile
Training Center) features:
LCD panels for students to be able to see right at their station what the instructor is demonstrating
A large flat panel screen allows students to see the presentation materials easily from their workstations.

creature comforts of a comfortable heating system and a surround sound
stereo experience help enhance the BEST training experience.
We
drive to your business and the students are sequestered in this vehicle
with the BEST instructors away from their working environment and all
of its distractions. In addition all of the materials are brought
on site and are top notch..
