Providing Affordable Industry 4.0 Certifications

The Smart Automation Certification Alliance (SACA) is a non-profit organization whose mission is to develop and deploy modular Industry 4.0 certifications for a wide range of industries.

SACA can help individuals obtain certifications in a variety of occupations, including interacting with software, data, networks, and smart devices. SACA certifications are different then many others out there as they address isolated competencies, from machining to maintenance and IT. They certify “connected systems” skills that address the integration of these technologies with Industry 4.0 technology.

The Manufacturing Skill Standards Council (MSSC), a 501(c)3 non-profit, is an industry-led training, assessment, and certification system focused on the core skills and knowledge needed by the nation’s front-line production and material handling workers. The nationwide MSSC System, based upon industry-defined and federally-endorsed standards, offers entry-level and incumbent workers the opportunity to demonstrate that they have acquired the skills increasingly needed in the technology-intensive jobs of the 21st century.

Stereolithography (SL) is a method used to create 3D-printed objects. It's the process by which a uniquely designed 3D printing machine, called a stereolithograph apparatus (SLA) converts liquid plastic into solid objects. The Stratasys' 3D printing solution adds game-changing advances in speed, accuracy, and reliability to the established capabilities of Stereolithography.

The open-system Stratasys Neo 3D Printer uses Stereolithography (SL) technology to deliver dependable, scalable fabrication at unprecedented speeds. Harness the power and performance you need to create precise parts efficiently and affordably.

Neo Stereolithography printers can create large parts, with outstanding surface finish and high resolution. Part quality is consistent at large volumes and highly repeatable.
