Resato announces the completion of an innovative development. Along with knowledge institution Kenteq and Amsterdam game development company ‘Little Chicken', we developed a 3D virtual environment in which new operators can be trained to operate the basics of the machine.

With this innovative way of learning Resato wants to build a bridge to the practice-oriented operators, who normally would have to dive into boring manuals at the beginning of their training.

Ton Driessen, COO & CFO of Resato, said: "We have to be ahead of our time, rather than up-to-date. We demonstrate that educating operators can be done efficiently in an appealing way that is practice-oriented. With this development we have created an unlimited number of machines  for 'hands-on' practice. Everybody can learn the basics independently and in their own time, so that we, in the delivery of our machine, can focus on the craftsmanship of waterjet cutting - the finesses."

Ton Driessen also points out the advantages for companies. "There is a shortage of well-trained staff. This method guides the operator to a safe, clean but most importantly right way of working. By starting to help operators to work with a fixed procedure the companies will have less errors resulting in a reduction of loss in material, time and energy. The benefits can be summarized briefly: Top staff, reduction in cost and added flexibility. A cracking result!"
