Training Workshops
Over the past 5 years the regional roadshow's training sessions have been attended by 1000's of engineering professionals, but now it's time for a revamp. This September sees a major revision of the sessions, with new content and session style incorporating some of the very latest PC based remote access and process control technologies.
NEW - Practical, mini-lab sessions
Our training partner, IDC Technologies, has spiced up the educational sessions with a series of mini-labs where you will be able to get hands-on experience with process technologies in short, action packed sessions of 20 minutes duration.
You will gain hands-on experience in the following:
- Troubleshoot a simple industrial type TCP/IP network using simple utilities commonly available
- Gain real experience in troubleshooting a simple Modbus and TCP/IP network with a protocol analyser
- Tune a Flow process loop which uses PID (proportional, integral and derivative) control
- Tune a temperature loop which uses PID (proportional, integral and derivative) control
- Program in ladderlogic and test out a PLC for a simple sequential program - Session 5
- Access and configure an ultrasonic Level Detector for a tank a few thousand kms away
A limited number of PCs will be available and allocated to groups who will undertake these tasks in a fun and supportive learning environment, with an enthusiastic instructor and your industry peers.
No matter how inexperienced or how advanced you are, we can guarantee that you will learn a few extra skills and enjoy the experience too.
In addition to the above mini-labs, two regular, but consistently popular presentation courses will also run each day:
- Best Practice in Arc Flash Protection for Australian Conditions - What it is and how to deal with it.
- Best Practice in Surge Protection and Lightning Mitigation for Electrical and Instrumentation
