For many industries, accurate location of underground services and utilities is a critical component of their operations. Whether it’s for construction, maintenance, or excavation, knowing the exact location of underground pipes, cables, and other infrastructure can save time, money, and even lives. This is where Sygma Solutions comes in.
Sygma Solutions is a leading provider of training courses for professionals involved in underground service and utility location. Our flagship offering, the CAT Course, is a comprehensive training program that covers everything from the basics of underground utility location to the latest techniques and technologies for accurate detection.
The CAT Course is designed for anyone who needs to locate underground services and utilities as part of their work, including engineers, surveyors, utility workers, and construction professionals. The course covers the use of the CAT (Cable Avoidance Tool) and Genny (Signal Generator), as well as the interpretation of signals and the identification of common underground services.
One of the key benefits of the CAT Course is that it is delivered by experienced and knowledgeable trainers who have over 100 years of combined practical experience in the field. This means that trainees learn from the best and will gain valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities of underground service and utility location.
In addition to the CAT Course, we also provide Radiodetection RD8100 training. This training course is focused specifically on the use of the RD8100, which is a high-precision underground utility locator that is widely used by professionals in the field.
The RD8100 is a sophisticated instrument that uses advanced signal processing techniques to provide accurate and reliable results. However, it requires a high level of skill and knowledge to use effectively, which is where our Radiodetection RD8100 training comes in.
During the training, operatives will learn how to use the RD8100 to locate and identify underground utilities, as well as how to interpret the results and make informed decisions based on the data. The training is delivered by experienced trainers who have a deep understanding of the RD8100 and its capabilities.
Overall, Sygma Solutions is a company that is committed to providing high-quality training and support for professionals involved in underground service and utility location. Our CAT Course and Radiodetection RD8100 Training are both highly regarded in the industry and have helped many professionals to improve their skills and expertise in this important field.
