THE DIGITAL WORKSHOP –

INNOVATIVE 3D LEARNING TOOLS

The Digital Workshop developed by SMS - utilizedsince 2006 for hundreds of customers - uses modernIT solutions such as virtual reality to support interdis-ciplinary communication and cooperation with you.

It applies innovative virtual engineering and powerful3D visualization in a specially equipped projectionroom to create vivid digital models of plants, compo-nents, or production processes in real time.

Just two examples of virtual reality in TECademyseminars are simulations that allow us to “walkthrough” plants in real time, and a virtual plant portal that simulates entire process chains includingdynamic demonstrations of production processes.

A PICTURE SAYS MORE

THAN A THOUSAND WORDS

Visualization is a great way to help course partici-pants gain a true-to-life picture and a profound under-standing of plants and processes.

As a result, we guarantee sustained learning successbecause a picture says more than a thousand words.And the “Digital Workshop” is worth a thousand pic-tures.

So you don’t need to suspend operation just toexamine your plant closely, try out modifications ofcertain production steps, or run through maintenancemethods. All this is possible using 3D models in ourDigital Workshop. That makes the facility ideal fortraining employees. Production continues undisrupt-ed, guaranteeing an optimal value adding process.

We use our Digital Workshop for courses in all threeof our TECademy Specialist fields:

TECHNOLOGY

Focusing on complete plants, production sequences,and production processes

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICING

Focusing on components that require maintenance

PLANT TECHNOLOGY

BASICS OF MANUFACTURING MODERN STEELS –TRENDS IN MATERIALS TECHNOLOGY

It is a fact that steel – despite the increasing use of lighter-weight metals such as aluminum and mag-nesium – remains the commonest structural material of our time. There is exciting scope for combin-ing the different chemical compositions of various steel types with new processing technologies tocreate more effective grades all the time. Driving this demand is especially the “changeover in energypolicy” that calls for not only lightweight construction steels, but also new methods of power genera-tion. That’s because steel will be a key factor here.

The basic seminar “Manufacturing modern steels – trends in materials technology” invites all employ-ees working in R & D, technology specialists in the steel processing industry, and steel purchasingstaff to learn more about current trends in materials technology relating to steels.

What they can expect is in-depth know-how about the basics of materials technology for manufactur-ing innovative steels as well as about the various manufacturing processes themselves. Furthermore,participants learn how to compare European standards with other standards systems and what partic-ularities to look out for.


Manufacturing processes

- Basics of material properties of steel (solidification, conversion)

- Ways of achieving the required properties

- New approaches in the simulation of property changes

SAFE MACHINERY AND PLANTSSAFETY STRATEGIES – LEARNING WITH A MODEL

Here is a model-based course from SMS Siemag AG that offers you the ideal way to find out moreabout the theory and practice of machine safety.

DIN EN ISO 12100 or DIN EN ISO 13849-1 are just two key standards that crop up again and againwhen it comes to machine and plant safety. That’s why our seminar teaches you the requirementsthey specify and what that does or doesn’t mean in practice.

To bring the subject to life, we show you real situations that occur during operation, troubleshooting,or repairs. You experience how access is restricted by safety technologies. There are for instance lightbarriers that switch off dangerous movements if they are crossed. Yet it’s not just about theory. The“model” makes it possible for participants to try out the various safety functions and put what theyhave learned directly into practice.

You benefit from a compact, practical seminar that provides hands-on experience of the requirementsunder Machine Directive 2006/42/EC for machinery and plants in the European Union and their imple-mentation in the workplace.


Depending on the target group, the following learning contents on product safety are conveyed at different levels of complexity:

Theory

- European safety requirements for machinery and plants

- Documentation requirements

- Selection of protective measures

Practice

- Practical operation of equipment, e.g. access procedures

- Safety precautions for servicing/maintenance

- Requirements for a complete machine group (linked plants) in practice
