GUNT-TVET
Technical and Vocational Education and Training
in Operation & maintenance services
At GUNT, we have made skills development in vocational training our most important task. While theoretical knowledge lays the foundation, we are strong advocates for a hands-on approach.
Operation & maintenance services showing the highest demand of skilled workforce in most of the industrial sectors nearly everywhere. GUNT can offer you nearly everything to cover the various learning areas of the curriculum in the area of operating & maintenance services.
Learning & practice modules
GUNT offers a wide range of learning and practical modules that meet almost all the requirements of typical maintenance and reliability trainings.
- build up solid knowledge and skills
- unit by unit and module by module
- suitable for teaching in small units, e.g. 45, 60 or 90 minutes
- accommodate a large number of students or trainees at the same time
GUNT DigiSkills
The teaching of digital skills in training students and professionals takes an essential part due to the increasing digitalisation of work processes in the context of Industry 4.0. GUNT DigiSkills learning projects aim to support the digitalisation of the vocational education.
- interdisciplinary, practical, process-oriented and totally digital
- carefully and comprehensively planned from a didactic perspective
- practice-oriented devices with industrial components
Industrial application projects
Industrial application projects from GUNT are designed for learning in an environment similar to industry. Coming from an industrial application and branching into various technology fields, opens up a wide range of individual learning topics.
- work and teach in a working environment, much different from the typical atmosphere of a school
- carrying out exercises in small groups
- work and learn from the first hour with complex and interdisciplinary tasks
- working with systems, details will be considered in more specific learning phases as required
Pilot plants & training plants
The pilot plants & training plants of GUNT are particularly designed to meet the specific training needs of the industry.
- handling real-world industrial equipment components
- detailed familiarisation with plants and processes
- understanding and executing maintenance and servicing procedures aspects of plant and occupational safety
Learning & practice modules
TVET learning & practice modules – common features
- learning step by step: GUNT offers the perfect device for all training levels
- practice-oriented devices, but carefully planned from a didactic perspective
- ideally suitable for students’ group working or project-oriented working methods
- typical maintenance methods and testing procedures are offered as learning content
Operation & maintenance services
- power transmission:
gears, driving belts, bearings, couplings - fluid power:
pumps, hydraulics, pneumatics, plumbing, valves and fittings - HVAC:
cold production, refrigeration components, fault finding - instrumentation & control: principles of industrial sensors, PLC basics, calibration, basic experiments on common controlled variables, smart instrumentation
Power transmission: gears, driving belts, bearings, couplings
Complex project: gear units in an industrial plant
This complex learning project is based on the » MT 174 Sorting plant including real operation processes. The entire process of preventive maintenance is applied to the drive trains of the individual elements. The process is IT-supported, using a wide variety of digital elements and technologies. Three different gearboxes are included.
Fluid power: pumps, plumbing, valves and fittings
Complex piping and pump system
The » HL 962 Assembly stand for pumps together with the tank system and connecting pipes results in a complete system with a closed water circuit. The following work steps, for example, can be practiced in detail:
- the removal and installation of pumps for inspection, repair or replacement
- aligning the drive
- commissioning and testing the pump, e.g. for leaks
HVAC: refrigeration, ventilation, air conditioning
Complex project: practical experiments relating to the operation of a refrigeration system
The modular » ET 910 Training system can be used to construct various refrigerant circuits thanks to a comprehensive selection of refrigeration components. Refrigeration solutions and real world problems are worked out didactically in experiments.
Instrumentation & control: control valves, process control, control systems, field instrumentation
Complex project: modular process automation training system
Together with its wide-ranging accessory components, the » RT 450 Base module provides a modular, fully flexible and open-design system for learning the fundamentals of process automation by means of experimentation. The accessory components are pre-installed on panels.
Industrial application projects
Industrial application projects – common features
- learning in an environment similar to industry
- industrial processes represented in all its aspects
- latest process technology, cutting-edge industrial components
- carefully prepared for training: clear design, easily accessible
- wide range of typical industrial tasks
All important areas of technology are covered by GUNT's Industrial application projects:
- power transmission

- instrumentation & control
- green energy...
Work on system level
- analyse a complex industrial system
- recognize sub-systems
- unterstand functionality and operation
- unterstand maintenance demand
Switching between the levels gives you a perfect TVET learning environment.
Work on components / sub-system level
Coming from an industrial application and branching into various technology fields:
- gears and drive elements
- instrumentation and control
- valves, pumps, pipes...
Industrial application projects from various technology areas
MT 220 Assembly station: gas booster in hydrogen technology
CE 585 Water purification process
All key standard operations in water treatment can be clearly demonstrated: filtration, adsorption and ion exchange. This device is entirely build up from industrial component and is used for maintenance tasks.
ET 195 Process cooling
In various areas of technology, reliable and precise process cooling is a key factor for maximum product quality. Trainees get to know an industrial process cooler in detail and learn about important aspects of maintenance in a practical way.
CE 750 Pasteurisation process
This device can handle all aspects of milk pasteurisation. It is designed as a flash pasteurizer and consists entirely of industrial components. This experimental plant is suitable for at least 100 hours of instruction and hands on practice. The heat exchanger, for example, can be completely dismantled for maintenance exercises.
MT 174 Sorting plant
The MT 174 sorting plant comprises a separation process that serves as an application example for various maintenance tasks. Bulk material is separated into three size fractions using a drum screen. The fine fraction is next sorted by colour. Maintenance work is carried out on the drive trains of the individual elements.
