VRTrain™
The best way to promote the successful integration of any machine tool or technology into your manufacturing operation is through training in setup, operation, and maintenance. A comprehensive training program gives operators and maintenance technicians the necessary foundation to ensure maximum output from your machinery.
But not all training is equal. Research has shown that even the best instructor, with the best student taking the best notes, will retain less than 70% within a week. In practical terms, that translates to less than 70% efficiency for typical training programs. And, that percentage decreases radically when people are left to learn through videos or by reading printed procedures.
A simulated learning environment provides your employees with the tools they need to effectively learn how to perform even the most complicated operations. Product Animations, Inc. (PAI) Productivity Improvement Tools provide an interactive, 3-D virtual environment that allows operators of complex machinery to clearly visualize processes and simulate real-life situations.
