WHAT DO CUSTOMERS SAY ABOUT COMPETENCY CENTRE


“We machine manufacturers are application experts, but to improve them we need to work alongside an automation system specialist. Collaborating in this way makes it possible to innovate while spending less time and resources. The main advantage of referring to a Competency Center is the availability of highly skilled experts and equipment that can be used to create accurate simulations. Tests can be conducted alongside a systems expert on the same hardware configuration as on the actual machine. The possibility to carry out experiments in an isolated environment is ideal in that you can concentrate on a single application without being constantly interrupted by daily work in the company.”
Luca De Vincenzi, R & D Senior Automation Engineer at Sidel Labeling
“The Competency Centre provided us with the hardware we needed and with a professional team. It has been a big help for our applications. The possibility to simulate all kinds of different situations, allowed us to develop a more robust and reliable software, with considerable savings in terms of time and costs.”
Vincenzo Martino, Electronic Director, Prasmatic
“We use the facility to prove concepts so we don’t waste time and money later on.”
Lee Taylor, Electrical/Software Engineer at Emerson & Renwick

“Thanks to the support, competence and availability of the Rockwell Automation Competency Centre staff in Bologna (Italy), we were able to help reduce the commissioning time for our machines and the training for our engineers.”
Corrado Capuani, Electrical Engineer, Sympak Corazza Spa
Advanced training at our Competency Centre
“All the rigs in this competency center represent technology that I use in our machines. The workshop really exceeded my expectations, excellent use of my time!”
Marco Put, Snr. R&D Engineer, VMI HOLLAND BV
“The training at the competency centre in Bologna was really a good idea, on Cermex site it would have not been possible to work without any disruption.
The aim for the training was for high level programmer on Rockwell product, specifically for Pcam function. We had a very good welcome, it was a very good initiative. This training is essential for those who want to develop on Rockwell product, understanding the behavior of motion control in general and correct bad habits. Having some mechanical person in the training is a really good idea”
Cermex
“5 concrete and various labs like flying cut, Pcam, Winder/Unwinder, Vertical load, 4barslinkage. All of them permit to create. All these labs have helped to create a link with Cermex application, specifically Pcam. Starting by a blank page permit to learn a lot. It's an original training, you've got one guideline per lab but you can find a lot of different solution. It's really open and you need to find by ourself the best solution”
Cermex
“I never realized the importance of mechanical design for the machines performance, This training shows how the Rockwell Automation tools can help to optimally design, size and tune your system!”
Erik Teule, Software Engineer, VMI Epe
