(Another) life-saver celebrates its 60th birthday
The National Health Service is to be congratulated on its 60th birthday, but there is another life-saving organisation that is also celebrating its 60th birthday this year: Pilz!
Fully equipped with workbenches, built-in 24V DC and 240V AC power supplies, and appropriate IT equipment, the room allows trainees to work individually or in pairs on specially designed training rigs.
These rigs play a key role in the four-day City and Guilds Machinery Safety Training course, as well as the one-day course for maintenance engineers.
In addition, the room is used for courses relating specifically to Pilz products.
For example, training rigs are utilised during the courses on PSS (programmable safety systems), SafetyBUS p (the fail-safe fieldbus protocol) and PNOZmulti software-configurable, modular safety controllers.
Now that the new training room has been fully commissioned, Pilz believes that the quality of its courses relating to machinery safety is second to none in the UK - and the courses remain exceptional value for money.
Please contact Pilz to request more information about training courses, or visit the website.
