O-I Glass will use virtual reality to train staff at its glass production site in Alloa, UK.
O-I Glass has created a Training and Development Centre at its Alloa plant which uses advanced technology such as virtual reality (VR).
The centre includes a classroom, a VR training machine, a FlexIS section and a IS training section. The latter are exact replicas of what is used on the shop floor.
Neil Finlayson, Process Development Lead, said: “Virtual reality is a great thing. It allows our trainees, apprentices, customers and any visitors to the plant to interact with the machine in a purely safe environment.”
O-I Glass said the centre is dedicated to fostering growth and ensuring the Alloa team is equipped to perform their job safely and with confidence.
More information on the centre can be found in the below video, which is also available via O-I Glass' LinkedIn page.
