Why SOMIC training is the key to your success
Time & cost savings
Early training prevents delays during production start-up. Well-trained personnel minimize downtime and rework – and ensure your system is productive from day one.
In-house expertise
Independent operation and maintenance by your own team. Our training strengthens your staff's technical understanding and their sense of responsibility – enabling rapid problem resolution without external assistance.
Extended machine service life
Proper use and in-depth technical knowledge protect your investment, help increase efficiency and sustainably optimize maintenance costs. Reduced wear through correct operation also results in a noticeably longer machine lifespan.
Our training offerings – Flexible & Targeted
Our training programs are specifically tailored to the needs of your production and maintenance teams. Whether operators, mechanics, electricians or technicians, each course is practical and aligned with the specific tasks on your SOMIC machine. This ensures that your team can operate the system safely, efficiently and independently.
Three training options – you choose the format
1. On-site training at your machine
Our trainers come directly to you and train your team on your own SOMIC packaging machine. The advantage: your employees learn in their familiar production environment and can apply what they have learned immediately.
2. Training at SOMIC in Amerang
At our SOMIC headquarters in Amerang we train your team on training machines – ideal for intensive sessions without interrupting production. Here your employees can familiarize themselves with the machine at their own pace before returning to daily production.
3. Virtual training
For quick refresher sessions or for international teams, we also offer virtual training sessions. Via video call our experts guide your team through the relevant topics – flexible, location-independent and time-efficient.
How your SOMIC training is conducted
