From June 3–11, 2025, a team of STM engineers traveled to Handan, China for intensive training at the Rilon factory, focusing on the Rilon Integrated Drill & Split machine. The program covered both installation and maintenance, ensuring STM’s service teams are fully prepared to support this advanced technology in the field.



During the final days of the visit, the engineers moved to a job site near Beijing, where the Rilon machine was in active use. There, they received hands-on instruction in real-world operating conditions, gaining valuable practical knowledge to complement their factory training.
With this expertise, STM engineers are now equipped to deliver world-class support for customers adopting the Rilon Integrated Drill & Split machine, combining technical precision with field-ready experience.
