North South Machinery welcomed fabricators, operators, and manufacturing professionals from across the region to Arizona this week for our Annual Bending Workshop with Bob Macaulay. Over two packed days, attendees participated in hands-on training sessions focused on improving bending accuracy, tooling knowledge, machine control, and real-world production efficiency.

The event featured intermediate, advanced, and Accurpress control classes designed to help operators at every skill level sharpen their abilities and gain practical experience they can immediately apply on the shop floor. Topics included stage bending, hemming, bump bending, tooling values, precision setup, vision control systems, and complex bending applications.

More than just a classroom environment, the workshop created an opportunity for manufacturers to connect, collaborate, and share ideas with others in the industry. From live demonstrations to open Q&A sessions, attendees were able to learn directly from experienced professionals while getting hands-on time with the equipment.

A special thank you goes to Bob Macaulay for leading another outstanding training event and to everyone who attended and helped make this year’s workshop such a success. Events like these are part of North South Machinery’s continued commitment to supporting our customers long after the machine is delivered.

We’re already looking forward to next year’s workshop.
