The real problem

Why Training Matters

New equipment should pay off from day one. Without proper training, you lose time and labor — and face these common problems:

01

Trial and error

Operators learn by guessing, and the first three months of data go in the bin.

02

No SOP to show

You bought the machine, but the SOP your auditor asks for doesn't exist yet.

03

One-person risk

One person knows how to run it. When they leave, the machine stops.

Two ways to train your team

Training that fits your lab, your schedule, your budget.

On-site training runs 1–2 days per instrument — at our plant before your machine ships, or at your lab after it lands. Video training is a one-off package delivered directly to your team.

Scales best

Video training

Available any time, self-paced

A complete video course and PDF manual set built for your exact model, delivered whenever you need it. Includes 6 months of online Q&A support.

  • ✔  Detailed operation videos — every step, model-specific

  • ✔  PDF training documentation — printable, hand to an auditor

  • ✔  6 months online Q&A — ask as issues come up

  • ✔  Certificate of attendance

Unpacking inspection, site requirements, pre-power checks, acceptance sign-off.

Module 02

Installation & calibration verification

Levelling, load/displacement verification, traceability chain, in-house checks.

Module 03

Standard operating procedure

Clause-by-clause reading of ISO / ASTM / EN / GB method, parameter setting.

Module 04

Sample preparation

Sampling representativeness, forming/curing, preparation errors that ruin results.

Module 05

Test execution & data handling

Full test run, outlier assessment, significant figures, rounding rules.

Module 06

Routine maintenance

Cleaning, lubrication, wear-part intervals, recommended spares list.

Module 07

Troubleshooting

Symptom-to-cause table, ten most frequent faults, when to call service.

Scope

You approve the scope breakdown before anything is booked. Cut what you don't need.

Why Tianpeng

A dedicated training team, backed by our own factory.

Engineer-Led, Not Script-Led

Every trainer has hands-on lab experience. You get answers to real problems, not a canned presentation — depth follows the people in the room.

Built for Global Standards

Content aligned with ASTM, AASHTO, EN, ISO requirements — so your data holds up in audits, contracts, and regulatory reviews worldwide.

Factory-Direct Knowledge

We design and manufacture the instruments ourselves, so our trainers understand them down to component level — well beyond what any manual can cover.

Protect Your Equipment Investment

One incorrect setting can cause thousands in downtime. Training pays for itself the first time it prevents a mistake or shortens your team's learning curve.

Training in the field

Real training, delivered worldwide.

From Southeast Asia to West Africa, our engineers have helped labs commission equipment, train operators, and pass client audits.

Expertise Without Borders: Professional GPR Training

Our engineer and the customer jointly reviewed operating manuals and ran live tests until the team could repeat the procedure independently.

FAQ

Common questions about training.

How do I get a quote for on-site training?

Tell us your instrument model, number of operators, preferred window, and whether you want the session at our plant in China or at your site. We return a detailed written quote within one business day. Travel and accommodation are quoted separately when outside our plant.

Is video training a one-off payment or a subscription?

A one-off per instrument. No per-viewer charge, no renewal, no expiry — everyone at your site can watch it, including new hires next year. It does not include hands-on coaching: if you want an engineer correcting your operators' hands on the spot, that's the on-site program.

Our instrument hasn't arrived yet — can we train before it lands?

Yes, and it usually saves the most time. Your team comes to our plant and trains on the instrument already prepared for your order — or on the same model if yours is still being built. They go home able to run it, so the machine produces data day-one instead of sitting idle.

How do you decide whether our instrument is standard or complex?

Two things: the value of the instrument, and how demanding its test method is — how many steps, how much sample prep, how many parameters must be set correctly before a result means anything. We tell you which tier when we quote.

Our operators have very different experience levels. Can you adjust?

That's what one-to-one coaching is for. The instructor teaches to the room rather than a script: newer operators get fundamentals slowed down, experienced users get parameter depth and failure modes.

Can you train on equipment you didn't manufacture?

For compatible third-party equipment, we provide standards-based guidance and general operating principles. Specific repair and part-level troubleshooting are limited to Tianpeng product families.

Which standards are covered?

ASTM, AASHTO, EN, and ISO are referenced throughout. Let us know which standard your project or audit requires.
