EOS says its Additive Minds Academy is accelerating learning curves for customers with its first Extended Reality (xR) app for the EOS M 290 system. The EOS M 290 Basic Training app is said to enable existing and new employees to train on systems faster than ever, at speed, from anywhere, and even before delivery, creating cost savings for companies.
The company says application specialists can learn how to operate EOS systems and software as well as develop the skills to advise customers and stakeholders to ensure the success of every aspect of the process chain.
According to the company, this is the first AM machine-based training app. The xR technologies are designed to transform education and contribute to the best possible learning outcomes when used correctly. With the EOS M 290 Basic Training app, it is possible to place the system anywhere and give trainees an immersive augmented reality (AR) experience, the company says. This is said to enable users to become familiarized with the main system components and interact with a full-size model of the EOS M 290.
The app is designed to offer users a faster learning curve. It is said the app works together with the Blended Learning Paths to drastically reduce onboarding times for employees to familiarize themselves with the system. It is also said to replace on-site training for the onboarding of new employees, and the training and development of existing employees on new systems. T
According to the company, this first distance learning course in can reduce operator training to just two or three days, at the same time decoupling training from machine availability on-site. Meaning that a company can effectively use the waiting time by starting training before the new system arrives.
The augmented reality functions are said to enable trainees to have realistic interactions with a life-like 3D printer model. Every trainee is thus able to fully focus on the actual learning content of EOS M 290 operation in a comfortable classroom environment at his or her own pace, the company says.
This first distance learning course in AM world for the EOS M 290 system is available in the Additive Minds Academy Store for Apple and Android products.
