Camarillo, Calif. — Nov. 13, 2009 — ESPRIT® and its maker, computer-aided-manufacturing industry leader DP Technology Corp., will be represented Nov. 24 at the Haas Technical Education Industry Partner Summit, and Nov. 25-26 at Haas Open Days, both of which are scheduled to take place in Zaventem, Belgium.

A total of 18 live demonstrations will take place.

The Haas Technical Education Center (HTEC) Program summit was created to build and strengthen partnerships, as well as a forum for evaluating performance and participation in the program.

ESPRIT will be exhibited at the summit, during which a 30-minute seminar exploring upgrades within the software will conducted by knowledgeable representatives.

About the Haas Technical Education Center Program

The European HTEC program was launched to counter what Haas Automation regards as one of the greatest threats to sustainable economic development on the continent: the shortage of talented and motivated young people entering the precision engineering industry with CNC machining skills.

The program provides Haas Automation CNC machine tools to technical learning establishments in Europe and around the world. As part of their studies, students at HTEC establishments use Haas machines and in the process become familiar with the latest CNC machining technology. With this kind of hands-on experience, students have better employment opportunities when they finally leave full-time education. The HTEC program also benefits local and national engineering companies, which have access to better-educated apprentices.
