Description

The EOS M 400-4 System Operation Training program is designed to equip participants with the essential skills for safe and efficient machine setup and build completion.  
 
Throughout 3 days of comprehensive training, learners will delve into machine safety protocols, operational principles, routine maintenance, and troubleshooting techniques.  
With a blend of theoretical knowledge and practical hands-on exercises, this program ensures operators are well-prepared to enhance productivity, uphold safety standards, and minimize equipment downtime in an industrial setting.  
 
Trainees should ideally have previous knowledge and experience with data preparation software (e.g., Materialise Magics, EOSPRINT 2) and understand the process of preparing build files as well as transferring those to the system.  We suggest completing the Data Preparation Metal Certificate program as a pre-requisite.    

 

Upon successful completion of this training program, participants will receive an official EOS System Operator certificate.

            FAQ

            This course is designed for polymer application engineers and technicians who are looking to learn and practice polymer laser-based Powder Bed Fusion System Operation.

            The comprehensive focus of this course is on acquiring safe and efficient machine setup and build completion hands-on skills from EOS experts during the in-person training. Its dependence on the learner's interaction — i.e., "learning by doing" in the practice task modules — will also have a positive long-term impact on the learner’s data preparation skills.

            You are recommended to have an active Materialise Magics and EOSPRINT2 software licenses.

            We recommend that learners who take this course have a strong technical background. Familiarity with Materialise Magics and EOSPRINT 2 fundamentals would be very beneficial during the training.

            If you're interested in exploring the AM process on a deeper level, we highly recommend taking our Process Science & Engineering Certificate Program. Contact us at training@eos.info for more info.
