Minimize Downtime, Maximize Efficiency Through Automation Training

Industrial automation has emerged as a vital technology for businesses across diverse sectors, as companies worldwide seek faster and more efficient processes. From automotive production to logistics operations and beyond, these technologies are increasingly indispensable. Their significance is expected to grow in the foreseeable future.

Interact Analysis, a market intelligence firm, forecasts a 6.4% compound annual growth rate for the machine vision market between 2022 and 2028. Additionally, the International Federation of Robotics anticipates a historic surge, with over 600,000 new robot installations projected for 2024. As businesses confront ongoing labor shortages, automation offers a solution to maintain or boost throughput and productivity. However, the effective operation, troubleshooting, and programming of these technologies necessitate skilled employees. Investing in automation systems training equips workers with the expertise needed to swiftly address issues and minimize downtime. This proactive approach assures stakeholders and ensures operational continuity.

Holistic Technical Training

In the realm of automation, many vendors offer training focused on individual components, such as robots, providing valuable insights on how to apply the technology but often falling short of delivering a comprehensive understanding necessary to minimize downtime effectively. Recognizing this gap, BizLink Industrial Solutions Business Group provides holistic technical training courses tailored to meet the diverse needs of manufacturers.

These custom courses, ranging from introductory to advanced levels, offer employees a thorough understanding of their company's automation system at a system-wide level. Covering topics like robots, PLCs, machine vision, and HMI training devices, the training incorporates leading brands such as FANUC, ABB, Rockwell, Siemens, Cognex, iRVision, and JIER Stamping Presses.

Jennifer St. John, Business Development Manager, Training at BizLink Industrial Solutions Business Group, emphasized the importance of empowering employees to swiftly identify and address issues to prevent lost productivity and revenue. With a team of 17 experienced instructors offering 69 standard courses and custom training options, BizLink boasts an impressive student pass rate of 98%, accompanied by a significant 30% increase in knowledge based on pre- and post-training assessments. This commitment to comprehensive training ensures that employees are well-equipped to optimize automation systems effectively, contributing to reducing mean time to repair (MTTR) and operational excellence.
