_The home of shop floor excellence
We firmly believe that every software environment we build has technical limitations – in a factory setting, it is always only as good as the people who operate it day in, day out, both on the shop floor and in the offices.
At the tetys academy, our training centre on the RWTH Aachen Campus, we use certified training methods to turn your permanent staff into experts in digital production planning and data capture.
_Our motivation behind the tetys academy
Bridge the alarming gap between the target and actual ROI of Industry 4.0 measures.
In many cases, large sums are being invested in new, cloud-based IT infrastructures. Yet at the operational level, amidst the deafening noise of the machinery, plant operators simply do not know exactly how to correctly enter a specific reason for rejection for a substandard batch into the brand-new production data acquisition tablet… Or how to read the finely granular OEE data from the terminal. When software is simply imposed on the workforce, it leads to frustration, which quickly turns into outright resistance. Without a firmly established, in-depth understanding of the system on the part of the users, even an investment in the most sophisticated algorithmic control centre remains worthless.

_Immersive training programmes for every specific target group
If you want to achieve different results, you have to take a different approach. For this reason, the tetys academy, for example, prohibits the use of menu click paths that have to be learnt by heart. Our philosophy: to help academy participants understand the overarching process-based structure of the shop floor, and to internalise the ‘why’ behind every complex screen.
Hands-on module / Comprehensive basic training
This introductory module at the tetys academy provides essential, concise and accessible knowledge of set-up procedures – specifically designed for terminal operators working on the machines. How do I log faults correctly? Where do I report unexcused quality losses in the SPC, and how do I record deductible micro-stop set-up phases on the tablet in an audit-proof manner?
Deep-Dive Module / Key User Control Room Training
The module for in-depth technical knowledge – specifically designed for those in strategic roles within work planning. These masterclasses at the tetys academy cover the knowledge required to configure tetys companion and the thinking behind the multi-resource algorithms on which tetys companion is based. Further topics include the creation of planning matrices and the BI-compliant analysis of data sets.
Certified Module / Certified Customised Seminars
To enable your staff to work effectively in your smart factory environment, our trainers will bring them up to the defined technological standard of competence and – if required – to a certified level. In addition to providing objectively documented specialist knowledge, this will give your staff the best possible foundation for greater commitment, born of pride in their digitally enhanced skills.
