Invest in Your Most Valuable Asset: Your Operators.

A new or rebuilt press is a massive investment, but its ROI is ultimately determined by the crew running it. In an industry facing a skilled labor shortage, Q360 Group provides the technical training necessary to turn new hires into lead operators and veterans into masters of modern automation.

We don't offer generic classroom lectures. Our training is "ink-on-hands"—we get on the floor with your team to solve real-world production hurdles. Whether you are transitioning from mechanical to servo-driven presses or simply looking to cut down on setup times, our experts provide the knowledge transfer your team needs to stay competitive.

Our Hands-On Training Process

1. Skill Gap Analysis
We observe your current shifts in action to identify where bottlenecks are happening and where technical knowledge is lacking.

2. Customized Curriculum
We don't do "cookie-cutter." We build a training plan based on your specific press models, the substrates you run, and your team's experience.

3. Live Production Coaching
Our trainers work alongside your crew during actual live runs, providing real-time corrections and "tricks of the trade" that aren't in the manual.

4. Maintenance Integration
We teach operators how to spot mechanical issues before they become breakdowns, fostering a culture of preventative care.

5. Performance Review
We provide a final assessment of the team's progress and leave behind customized checklists to ensure the new skills stick.
