Leuze electronic’s next free-of-charge Introduction to Machine Safety training workshop is on Tuesday 31 January, at the offices of the HMK Direct in Congleton, East Cheshire.
With the support of HMK this is the first time these popular half-day training workshops have been held in the North West.
Kevin Ellison the presenter and technical support engineer at Leuze electronic said: “We have had a wide variety of people travel to our previous workshops at our office in St Neots, including people from as far away as Cornwall and Aberdeen. The majority however have been from companies close to our office and so I am looking forward to meeting new people by taking ‘the show on the road’ so to speak”.
HMK Direct, as a Siemens Technology Partner for Safety, has a wealth of experience in automation and works with Leuze electronic to offer in depth knowledge of machine safety legislation, issues and solutions.
MD of Leuze electronic, Mark Weymouth said: “The Machine Safety market is complicated by some consultants who over complicate the issues and create fear, and some suppliers who treat machine safety as a commodity product. These sessions are designed to show a different middle-way, with Leuze offering high performance products that are easy to install and use, combined with the expertise of Leuze and an automation expert like HMK Direct to support customers on their applications.”
