Setco Spindles, the Indian subsidiary of Setco, the world’s largest independent spindle manufacturer and rebuilder today announced, that it has launched, a free three-month course for Milling, Turning & Grinding operators. The focus of this course, is to provide hands-on-training for selected trainees so that they are skilled and ready to start work from Day One and is open for anyone with a minimum qualification of having passed 10^th standard.

Speaking on the launch Rajesh Mandlik, CEO, Setco Spindles India said, “We have a full fledged and well equipped machine shop with machines for grinding, milling and turning operations which are used for  manufacturing and repairing precision spindles used in CNC machines. Over a period of time, we realized that many of the new joinees lack hands on skills to start work immediately and found that this was a challenge faced by the industry. We had recently made it our core value to become an “Arha Samasti” (Worthy of Existence) organization and as actions speak louder than words, we decided to also open up the training program and equip young people with in-demand employable skills.”

There are a large number of young people who are in the job market and are currently unemployable as they don’t have immediately employable skills whereas Milling, Turning and Grinding operators are in constant demand  in the manufacturing industry. This course is a bridge between the industry requirement for ready employable talent and people wanting jobs

The course is open to individuals between the ages of 18 to 35 years with a minimum education level of having passed 10^th Standard. This is a three-month course that is provided by Setco Spindles at the Pune facility during which they will learn to use measurement tools like Vernier caliper’s, micrometers, reading Blue print specifications, preparing raw materials for operation, making adjustments to machine, grinding parts to specifications. Trainees who successfully complete the three month course will receive a completion certificate, they can also avail of placement support if required.
