INSTRUCTORSOur instructors have acquired extensive experience by commissioning a large number of machines for clients, and carrying out revisions. Accordingly, the courses are very practically oriented and primarily consist of demonstrations and specific training on the machine. The theory part has been reduced to a minimum.

COURSE SCHEDULEDAY 1:Morning 9:00 to 12:00 amLunch break 12:00 to 1:30 pmAfternoon 1:30 to 4:30 pm

FOLLOWING DAYS: Morning 8:00 to 12:00 amLunch break 12:00 to 1:30 pm Afternoon 1:30 to 4:30 pm

At our service points, we periodically conduct training courses on machines that we temporarily provide on location for this purpose. If you are interested, please contact us for details and pricing.

On request, we can also provide training on clients’ machines at their site. If you are interested, please contact us for details and pricing.
