Vacuum Pump Training Program
For semiconductor companies who want training to take full ownership of their vacuum pumps’ maintenance, FMG provides the most comprehensive and practical training courses needed available in the industry.
Unlike vendor-specific training, FMG’s courses cover all brands and all types of pumps and blowers. The main focus of our training is on the realities of the FAB systems environment – especially during shutdowns and startups.
Explanation and training on the assembly and preventative maintenance helps your team understand the inner workings of the vacuum pumps. You get better acquainted with your systems to recognize early signs of trouble, prevent premature failures, and costly downtime.
A typical 3-5 day curriculum can run shorter or longer depending thenumber of pump models taught. The program can be tailored to any experience level – extensive for someone new to the field, or intensive for senior level technicians. The course can be based around the technician’s prior pump experience and knowledge.
