“This is evidence that printing technology education is an important part of our industry and valued by our colleagues,” concluded Kerner. “The role of education and awareness of the printing and packaging industry among young people was a topic of discussion at all meetings at drupa. This success motivates the organising institutions to aim for the next drupa, as well as to establish the WorldSkills competitions as the most important meeting point for young, talented printing technology students. We will try to negotiate with the WorldSkills trade and professions management to bring back the printing technology competition with new sustainable and more digital solutions.”

Les simulateurs sont un formidable outils de partage des connaissances. Sans risque pour les utilisateurs, le formateur peut montrer les interactions sur la machine à imprimer, quel que soit le procédé d’impression (offset, flexo ou helio). En mode « sans défaut d'impression », l'utilisateur pourra très facilement utiliser la presse et comprendre le procédé, sans gâche papier et en préservant la planète. Le simulateur est un outil vert.

Sinapse est sponsor pour les olympiades des métiers. Tous les deux ans, les compétiteurs ont à cœur de montrer leur maitrise du métier de l’impression et le simulateur SHOTS est un des moyens de démontrer leur connaissance du procédé, avec une composante 'gaming', sans pour autant être un jeu. Rendez-vous dans les mois prochains pour la préparation des qualifications nationales et pour la compétition mondiale à Shanghai en 2021.

La Console Tactile fonctionne de la même façon qu'une vraie presse. L’opérateur dépose la feuille d’échantillon d’impression ou la signature sur la console au-dessus des touches des clés d’encrages correspondantes, puis effectue les réglages. Au fur et à mesure que les clés d’encrage sont ajustées sur la TouchConsole, les modifications sont affichées sur la sortie simulée affichée juste au-dessus d’elles.
