Integration based on a computer training platform for all plant installations, including those from third-party manufacturers (using the provided API); iXyber OTS
Next-generation training platform for creating computer training complexes (KTC) and managing the training process within the enterprise scale.
What's this for 
As a process operator, I want to feel confident when operating the technological installation during startup and shutdown modes, as well as in routine and emergency abnormal situations
As a Production Director, I want to have highly qualified process operators who are trained and prepared for reliable, safe, and efficient operation of the technological facility in both routine and emergency situations
iXyber OTS - is a platform that enables the creation of models of technological processes of various scales and complexities, simulates control algorithms for emergency protection, designs user interfaces for operators of automated control systems and field operators based on 3D models, integrates models into training environments, and trains operators for safe and efficient operation of technological facilities under normal and emergency conditions
