At Ash Air, we focus on face to face, hands-on trainings for our services engineers, and annual national sales conferences that bring
our team from all corners of the country together to support their continuous competence development.
A focus on training for our service engineers
Recently, pictured left, our hardworking and dedicated Field Service Engineers came together at our Hamilton based centre, for competence
training and collaboration. On this day, we ran a workshop that was focused on delivering the highest proportion of practical content and
include large amounts of group work, active exercises, co-operative learning and development of knowledge through individual learning and
experience.
The motivation and commitment of our employees is promoted by providing them with knowledge, ability and understanding in and around
everyday FSE duties. Our main objectives and outcomes for a workshop is to help our team
• Reducing downtime and quality costs for our customers
• Increasing safety and productivity during efficient work
• Awareness and active analysis of potential risks and hazards
• Encourage a feedback environment
• Open up requests for further competence trainings
• Promotion of a sense of responsibility for the product and your company among employees
What we strive for
When we hold a training for our engineers, we always strive for our team to be learning from the best possible people on the job, who
have many years experience in the industry, working with compressed air; compressors, vacuum pumps and air treatment. At our trainings, we
offer hands on technical experience in the workshop that help our engineers learn to detect and remedy problems that may arise on the job,
and teach our team to optimise an installation with a better system knowledge that will reduce operational and energy costs for our
customers. All whilst ensuring our engineers maintain a high level of safety throughout their daily activity, and well as ensuring the
machines run safely also.

Even when designing a system for supplying production with compressed air or vacuum, oxygen, nitrogen or other gases, one thing is clear:
it will not work without maintenance. Compressed air filters and compressor lubricants have to be changed regularly, wear parts have to be
replaced so that the system runs reliably and safely for many years. Between 5 and 10 percent of the total investment amount has to be
calculated for the maintenance costs each year. Here we discuss the advantages of service agreements with Sunil, our Service specialised
Sales Engineer for Ash Air.
