1 DAY SAFETY TRAINING FORM

Raju’s machine safety experience of 25 years was critical during the presentation of the 3-day TUV Certified CESE course. He could co-relate the technical slides with practical examples which made the training material and course notes interesting and easy to understand. I strongly recommend this course to any electrical /maintenance engineer involved with machine safety.
I had known and sought Raju’s help on various machine safety applications including risk assessment and validations for over 16 years now. I had heard benefits about this course from the Industry and finally got an opportunity to enrol myself in February 2020. Thoroughly enjoyed and learnt a great deal from this intensive 3-day course. Course material was unquestionably well presented with practical examples. I have no hesitation in recommending this course to fellow engineers. I wish I had done it sooner.
Raju possesses in-depth knowledge of machine safety including all types of guarding viz; fixed, interlocked guards and electronic sensors. Along with course material, he passed on high quality safety application engineering knowledge with practical examples showing photos, illustrations, drawings and possible solutions. With this knowledge and certification; I feel absolutely confident in upgrading the safety of many old machines and writing the scope of new purchases in our factory. I would strongly recommend the course to fellow engineers within my organisation.
Raju’s one day safety training course was excellent. Not only did he cover the operational aspects of safety automation, but he also took time to explain the regulations and laws which drive the industry. Having a wiring exercise at the end was highly beneficial too. I would recommend this for any professional looking to upskill and get a detailed understanding of machine safety automation!
