The downside of advanced technology is often the difficulty of getting up-to-speed
with a new system. Olympus Controls is dedicated to providing our clients
with the highest quality machine automation training. We maintain a fully
equipped, 1000 square-foot, classroom style training area at our Portland
facility for the express purpose of expanding your knowledge base and
increasing your comfort level and confidence with our products. We can
also accommodate workshops at your facility and at other offsite facilities
when requested.
