Machinery training your depot teams take at the machine

tapybl turns inspection procedures and equipment documentation into microreels technicians watch on the depot floor, so a pre-hire check is done from knowledge rather than approximation.

The problem with machinery hire and engineering training

A hire fleet changes constantly, and every machine that goes out carries the depot’s name on its condition. The pre-hire inspection is only as good as the technician’s memory of the procedure for that specific machine, and with dozens of models across a fleet, “roughly how it goes” creeps in. Formal training on a new equipment line means waiting for the manufacturer’s session or sending people away, so mostly it’s the manual in the office and whatever the last person remembered.

How tapybl works for machinery hire and engineering

  1. Inspection checklists and equipment manuals become microreels watched at the point of work
  2. Each machine type gets its own content, so onboarding onto a new line is specific and quick
  3. Procedure changes are published once, with completion tracked per technician whichever depot they work from
  4. Questions confirm exact knowledge (torque values, check sequences, defect criteria) with a score on record per technician

The evidence

“Seen the video” and “knows the sequence” are different states, and only one of them protects the depot when a machine comes back damaged. The questions inside each microreel are what separate the two.

FAQ

What is a microreel?

A microreel is a short, interactive video lesson built for phones — one topic, completed in a few minutes. One machine’s pre-hire inspection is one microreel; its safe operation briefing is another.

Can we build content per machine model?

Yes. Upload the manufacturer’s documentation for each model and a draft microreel is generated from it, which you edit and publish. Pathways group them by fleet, category or depot.

Does it produce records we can show after an incident?

Completion status and scores are recorded per technician and can be exported. If a machine comes back damaged or an incident is investigated, you can show who was trained on that model’s procedure and how they scored.
