Untrained or under-trained machine operators are one of the leading causes of unplanned downtime, which can cost facilities thousands per minute. MST helps reduce this by helping you to more clearly capture procedures and provide training that provides operators with a better understanding of your process and their job roles.
Most facilities rely on OEM manuals or peer-to-peer training, which may lead to gaps in operator understanding and consistency in following best practices. MST helps to develop structured training, videos, and documentation that are custom to your unique setup and the facility’s processes.
With the ongoing skilled labor gap, facilities are onboarding new and inexperienced operators at a faster pace. Machine-specific training helps accelerate competency and lowers the learning curve.
Inadequate training contributes to a high number of workplace injuries. A single incident can cost $40,000+ in direct and indirect costs. MST training reinforces proper machine usage, lockout/tagout, and emergency protocols, helping ensure OSHA compliance.
Generic training doesn’t stick. MST’s machine-specific, hands-on programs improve knowledge retention and operator confidence. Operators trained on their actual machines are more likely to retain skills and avoid mistakes.
Improper machine use leads to product defects and wasted materials. When operators are fully trained, facilities see improvements in:
High turnover is common in manufacturing. MST can help you standardize training across shifts and new hires, so you’re not starting from scratch every time someone leaves.
Facilities that undergo MST training can keep detailed records of who was trained, when, and on what machines — essential for ISO certifications, OSHA audits, and customer quality assessments.
