Holy Grail!

On April 16, 2009, Matthew Riley and Nick Bennington of Grail Engine Technologies visited Salina Area Technical College with a dream to change the world. Matt and Nick developed an internal combustion two stroke engine that runs on multiple fuels sources, performance levels, and reduces pollution. They needed Salina Tech’s assistance to turn the idea into reality. Working with Salina Tech faculty and students, a model engine was developed. Since this initial meeting, the company is getting national and international attention for their ground breaking innovation for engine performance and “green” technology.

Please visit Grail Engine Technologies website for more information. We are proud to be initial contributors to Matt and Nick’s heroic efforts to make the world a better place to live!

Machine Tool Technology Program

Despite the economic downturn, machinists and machine operators are still in demand.  Local employers tell us that there is a shortage of entry-level machinists in Salina and North-Central Kansas.  The national outlook is good, with more jobs than qualified applicants for the foreseeable future.     

Salina Area Technical College offers a fast-track program in Machine Tool Technology using equipment that’s commonly found in machine shops.  Our nine-month program leads to careers in different fields, such as Assembly Person, Machine Operator, Machinist, Tool and Die Maker, Tool Room Technician, Methods and Standards, Quality Control, CNC Operator, CNC Programmer, and Management.
