Mine Master at the first educational fair
If you ask a primary school pupil: ”Who would you like to be in the future?”, it is likely most of them would say: I do not know. Since it is easy to imagine the work of a policeman or a doctor, it is much harder to visualize the job of an operator of a drilling machine, for instance. Therefore, our company participates in an educational fairs, to show, what you can expect when you become a serviceman of a drilling machine. At this year fair we ‘employed’ a drilling guidance system simulator, which is normally used to train our service people.
