Targeted Training by Syntegon: Building Know-how to Boost Output

Well-trained employees are key to efficient production. With a modular training program, Syntegon helps companies around the world systematically build expertise – reducing downtime, preventing operator errors, and cutting unnecessary costs.

Modern processing and packaging technologies are highly complex. Advanced machinery, increasing regulatory demands, and a growing variety of products all contribute to rising operational challenges. At the same time, profit margins are under pressure and skilled operators are hard to find – making know-how a decisive success factor. Without in-depth knowledge, even the most advanced technology cannot be used efficiently. This is exactly where Syntegon comes in. With over 160 years of experience and a deep understanding of real-world production environments, we have developed a training program specifically tailored to the individual needs of our customers. The goal: turning employees into experts and thus ensure the success of production.

Knowledge that delivers results – right from day one

Whether it’s operating, maintaining, or troubleshooting equipment: our training programs deliver knowledge where it’s needed most – at the machine, in everyday production, and in the language of the users. Especially in situations where new machines are being introduced, recurring problems arise, or there is a lack of experience in dealing with complex systems, structured training becomes a decisive factor for success.

When machines are not used to their full potential, productivity suffers. This results in safety risks, unnecessary downtime, and overworked service teams. The ongoing shortage of skilled workers intensifies the challenge: employees have to take on more responsibility, while staff turnover causes valuable expertise to be lost – and new team members often lack the necessary experience.

In such situations, targeted training creates clarity, builds confidence, and ensures consistent performance. For manufacturers, this means more machine performance with the same resources.

Training as the foundation for high-performing equipment

Advanced technology is essential to meet today’s high demands for performance, quality, and flexibility. However, the key to ensure that machines consistently deliver on their potential is to invest in the knowledge of the people who operate them. Only well-trained employees can manage processes efficiently, take immediate action in the event of problems, and thus fully utilize machine performance. With Syntegon’s training solutions, companies can unlock the full potential of their equipment – turning knowledge into a true strategic asset.
