Training courses make the start simple

LPKF systems can be operated easily and intuitively

Detailed and understandable manuals lead and support the user during the installation, start-up and operation of the machines and software programs.

LPKF ProtoLasers are always installed by LPKF's own engineers. The user is familiarized with the possibilities of the system in a short training course.

We also offer installation and training for the smaller systems. This training can be done at LPKF's premises or at your facility.
