VR SOP Training for Metal Stamping & Press Shops

Safer changeovers and cleaner, repeatable parts

Press shops must control tooling, feeds and safety interlocks. Spark creates bespoke VR training that mirrors your die sets, coil feeds, press controls, guarding and in-line inspection—so teams learn the correct order before running live coil.

Typical challenges

• Die change: clamping/tonnage, sensor checks and first-hit validation.
• Feeding: straightener settings, pitch, lubrication and scrap removal.
• Quality: burr/warp, spring-back control and SPC sampling.
• Safety: light curtains, two-hand control and lockout procedures.

Our bespoke build approach

1. Capture SOPs & limits: die books, set-up sheets and inspection criteria.
2. Create scenarios: die swap, thread-up, first-off approval, jam/strip recovery.
3. Coach in VR: prompts that mirror your press HMI and checklists.
4. Assess: downtime causes, scrap Pareto and missed safety steps.

Benefits

• Faster make-readies and lower scrap.
• Fewer injuries and safer operations.
• Reliable, audit-ready documentation.

Why Spark

We train your exact presses, dies and standards—no generic modules.
