Industrial workflows follow a strict schedule that is designed to achieve maximum efficiency. In a real-world industrial setting, there is very little time to make mistakes or learn things. Training factories are separate from production facilities that are in full operation and offer students the opportunity to get to grips with the challenges in industrial automation in a safe and intuitive environment. This allows them to obtain the very skills they will need in the workplace in future. Depending on the industry, the required training content as well as spatial and financial resources, we offer a range of training factories to convey key information on Industry 4.0 and industrial automation in a practical, hands-on way.
