Training Overview
We understand the importance of product training. That is why we offer you comprehensive operator, programming and maintenance training for all our robots. Courses are available for end-users, DENSO-approved Distributors and System integrators (DENSO and DENSO affiliates should contact the DENSO E&D center for all robot-related training). We have fully equipped training facilities at our main service center, which is centrally located in Cincinnati, Ohio., as well as at our satellite center in Long Beach, California. On-site training at your location can also be arranged.
Our training courses feature:
- Friendly, knowledgeable and experienced trainers
- Dedicated classrooms
- Dedicated training robots (no more than two students per robot)
- Dedicated computer workstations and offline simulation software
Our small class sizes and low student-to-trainer ratios make learning easier and more effective. Students benefit from a variety of classroom sessions, computer-workstation interaction and hands-on robot training. Students who successfully complete their courses receive official DENSO factory training certification.
