Discovering AccXels plant training facility with equipment from JCB Leica Geosystems Part 2

For part 2 of our mini-series, Peter Haddock talks to Jamie Williams, AccXel’s Plant and Groundworks Tutor and Paul Worsford, a first year apprentice and career changer, on his experience so far.

Jamie puts the brand new JCB 100 C-2 ten tonne excavator fitted with the Leica Geosystems MC1 3D machine control from dealer Holt JCB Limited through its paces, and we discuss the training and support he has had from the Leica Geosystems team. In addition to the new equipment, machine control has also been fitted to the simulators from Tenstar Simulation AB used in the main school building.

 It is brilliant to see such industry partnerships coming together to give apprentices and those training at the school access to the very best equipment and training. Thanks to Nicola Bird and Natalie King for hosting Peters's visit, and look out for our final part 3 of the mini-series coming soon.
