What problems does APT address?

  • How do you organise regular training for rolling mill personnel?
  • How do you make sure all of the different crews get the same level or quality of training?
  • How do you minimise the down time it causes for the mill?
  • How do you find a suitable trainer that has time to repeat their lectures over and over?

APT answers all of these issues and provides solutions to other problems as well.

How does APT train my personnel?

In APT you won't find complex mathematical equations or complicated engineering concepts. What you will find are carefully designed training sequences containing accurate and realistic analysis of the flat rolling environment through the use of everyday metaphors.

Video, audio, animation and text - all presented in an easy-to-use on-screen lesson environment - provide your rolling mill personnel with the concepts they need to advance their understanding of the rolling process.

A full Quiz section tests trainees on the knowledge they have acquired and charts their progress for feedback to them on weak areas, as well as for monitoring by supervisors.

Rolling mill personnel will improve their ability to recognise and take action in emergency situations, which can prevent expensive mill wrecks and roll damage. The application of such new knowledge can lead to improved operator efficiency and morale - with a consequential reduction in delays and improved production resulting in increased mill throughput and yield.
