RESTON, Va., Feb. 28, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- For its annual PackML Training Workshop, the Organization for Machine Automation and Control (OMAC), is now offering advanced programming sessions in addition to its standard basic coding and training. OMAC's PackML Workshop 2019 takes place Thursday, May 16, 7:00 am to 5:00 pm, at the Chicago Marriott O'Hare. The PackML Workshop is co-located and follows the Automation World Conference & Expo, May 14-15 in the same venue.
PackML experts from B&R Automation, Bosch Rexroth, Rockwell and Siemens will lead the training sessions.
