To enhance its training services and address the shortage of hydraulic and pneumatic skills across the continent, Bosch Rexroth Africa’s training department has unveiled a state-of-the-art modular training workstation. The innovative workstation is now available for purchase by customers, training providers, universities and TVET colleges.
The modular training workstation is designed to be customisable and adaptable, allowing different components to be easily added, removed, or swapped to meet unique training needs. This flexibility ensures that the workstation can accommodate various courses in the hydraulic and pneumatic training environment, equipping participants with the skills necessary to excel in their respective fields.
The new workstation aims to provide participants with practical experience with real-world equipment and machinery for industries such as fitting, millwright, diesel, mechanics, earthmoving, and mechatronics. This allows participants to stay updated on the latest technologies and practices in the hydraulics and pneumatics industries. Qualified artisans and engineers will also have the opportunity to enhance their knowledge and skills.
This initiative supports continuous learning and upskilling of crucial skills to build a more competent and skilled workforce. This is done to maintain high standards of work, and ensure participants are well equipped to tackle complex challenges in their fields of work. The training workstation meets the SETA trades standards and QCTO qualifications. Bosch Rexroth Africa Training Department is a registered and accredited training provider with the MerSETA.
“By demonstrating the practical benefits and real-world applications of these training workstations, we hope to inspire current and future professionals to embrace continuous learning and development,” says group training manager, Allen van Gent.
