15 The October Connection 2013
Because of the complexity indus-trial control that is currently being installed in factory automation, the need for a thorough understanding and knowledge of equipment is imperative to keep your company productive and profitable. Training from Allen-Bradley can reduce downtime because employees trained on equipment can solve problems faster. It also maximizes utilization of equipment because personnel knowledgeable about all performance capabilities of equip-ment will use those capabilities to the best advantage and potential. Additionally, Allen-Bradley’s train-ing increases worker participation towards your company’s goals and objectives. Many productive suggestions for solving ongoing problems and increasing produc-tivity come from workers who fully understand control equipment.
