Ultech Engineering recently held the second installment of our highly anticipated DEIF Genset Controller Training, this time in the bustling industrial hub of Bintulu, Sarawak. Building on the success of our inaugural event in Kuching, we ventured into Bintulu independently, this time without the support of Sarawak Skills. Despite this, the response was overwhelming, with seats filling up quickly, demonstrating the strong demand for advanced technical training in the region especially in an industrial hub such as Bintulu.
This time, our training was hosted at NU Hotel, a premier venue known for its excellent facilities and convenient location in the heart of Bintulu. Upon arrival, participants were given a safety briefing, including a detailed evacuation plan, ensuring that everyone was well-informed about emergency procedures. The hotel’s commitment to safety provided a secure and professional environment for our training sessions.
The training commenced with an engaging first day dedicated to theoretical lectures. Our expert trainers delved into the latest technologies and functional capabilities of modern genset controllers, focusing on the DEIF SGC Smart Connect series and AGC150 Utility Software. The participants, comprising industry professionals and technology enthusiasts from various sectors, were eager to absorb the wealth of knowledge being shared.
The morning session began with an introduction to Ultech Engineering and a comprehensive overview of DEIF’s product range. This was followed by in-depth discussions on the features and benefits of the SGC 120 and SGC 421 controllers. Our trainers highlighted the controllers’ advanced functionalities, including automatic mains failure, peak shaving, and hybrid system integration. The participants were particularly interested in the new technologies embedded within these controllers, which promise enhanced efficiency and reliability in industrial applications.
After a short refreshment break, the training continued with a focus on the AGC150 Utility Software. This session provided detailed insights into the software’s capabilities, including parameter settings, M-logic configuration, and Canbus setup. The participants appreciated the thorough explanations and the opportunity to ask questions, ensuring they fully understood the theoretical aspects of the software.
The day concluded where participants posed various technical queries and shared their experiences. This interactive segment allowed for knowledge exchange and set the stage for the hands-on activities planned for the second day.
Day two of the training was dedicated to hands-on experience, where participants could apply the theoretical knowledge gained from the first day. The focus was on practical sessions involving the SGC Smart Connect controllers and AGC150 Utility Software.
The morning began with an introduction to the practical setup, where participants were guided through the process of connecting and configuring the SGC120 controllers. Our trainers demonstrated real-world applications, showing how the controllers can be integrated into various industrial settings. Participants were given the opportunity to work on the controllers themselves, exploring different functionalities and troubleshooting potential issues.
After a mid-morning break, the training moved on to the AGC150 Utility Software. Participants installed the software on their laptops and followed along as our trainers walked them through the setup and configuration processes. The hands-on sessions included tasks such as setting up a project, downloading configurations, and using the software’s emulation features. This interactive approach allowed participants to gain practical experience and confidence in using the software.
One of the highlights of the day was a word cloud poll conducted to capture participants’ favorite features of the DEIF controllers. This innovative feedback method encouraged knowledge sharing and provided valuable insights into which aspects of the controllers were most appreciated by the participants. Features such as automatic mains failure, hybrid system integration, and the intuitive graphical interface emerged as top favorites.
At the end of the training, participants were asked to fill out a detailed survey to provide feedback on their experience. While the overall response was positive, many participants expressed a desire for more hands-on experience. They appreciated the theoretical knowledge but felt that additional practical sessions would enhance their understanding and skills further.
However, conducting more hands-on activities in a general training seminar poses certain challenges. Without specific case studies or industry-focused scenarios, it can be difficult to provide the depth of practical experience that participants are seeking. This feedback is invaluable, and we recognize the need to address it in future training sessions. One potential solution could be to incorporate more industry-specific case studies or offer advanced workshops focusing exclusively on practical applications. How this works then would be to send a pre-requisite questionnaire to understand the nature of business and specific problems to focus on.
Participants who attended the full 2-Day DEIF Genset Controller Training in Bintulu and actively engaged in all sessions were awarded e-certificates post-training. These certificates acknowledge their commitment and successful completion of the course. In addition to the e-certificates, participants received a comprehensive set of the collated slides presented during the training. This valuable resource serves as a reference guide, allowing them to revisit key concepts and apply the knowledge and skills gained during the hands-on sessions in their professional practices.
The 2-Day DEIF Genset Controller Training in Bintulu was a tremendous success, highlighting the strong demand for advanced technical training in Malaysia’s industrial sectors. The event not only provided participants with valuable theoretical knowledge and practical skills but also facilitated networking and knowledge sharing among industry professionals.
Moving forward, Ultech Engineering is committed to continuously improving our training programs to better meet the needs of our participants. We aim to incorporate more hands-on activities and industry-specific scenarios in future sessions, ensuring that our training remains relevant and impactful.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to all participants for their enthusiasm and feedback, and we look forward to welcoming you to our future training events. Together, let’s continue to drive innovation and excellence in the field of genset controller technology.
