Process instrumentation specialist VEGA is taking its distinctive VEGATRUCK mobile training facility on a four-week tour of northern England, Northern Ireland, the Republic of Ireland, Wales and Scotland this October, bringing hands-on training in level and pressure measurement directly to customers.
Combining an American Kenworth W900 truck with a specially designed, expanding Formula 1-style trailer, the VEGATRUCK provides a 64 m² presentation and training area featuring a mini theatre, working instruments, live application models and interactive technology.
Visitors can see measurement technologies in action, handle instruments and discuss their own applications with VEGA specialists. Attendance is free, with timed tickets available through Ticket Tailor.
