About this Webinar

The user experience of the human-machine interface (HMI) control on your equipment does matter. Equipment that is easier to use makes onboarding new employees quick and simple. Consistent operator interface design and operation between machines allows for cross-training of employees from one piece of equipment to another.

Previously, new employees struggled with learning how to operate plastics processing equipment. With Conair's new common control platform—and a user experience specifically designed to fast-track employee onboarding—new employees feel comfortable operating equipment and avoid costly mistakes. This presentation will discuss the challenges and solutions when it comes to training new employees on processing equipment.
