Automotive theory taught in a practical way… including:

Automotive Trainers

Sectioned Components

Trainers that expose the inner workings of components provides a safe and accessible way of viewing how complex systems are constructed – key components are color-coded for easy identification. Our cut-aways are fitted with hand cranks to enable students and teachers to see how components interact with each other to create a fully working system.

Hands-On Automotive Training Equipment

Autotronics Panel Trainers

Our innovative computer-linked panel trainers simulate a range of complex vehicle operations that can be used in a safe classroom environment. These trainers are lightweight, freestanding and are a great resource for front-of-class teaching and group activities.

Automotive Technology Trainers

Autotronics Boards

Our unique autotronics boards provide students with a practical approach to theoretical learning. Diagnostic and faultfinding skills can be developed from the safety of the classroom with these desktop systems… it’s just like the real thing!

Vehicle Components Rigs

System and Component Rigs

Many automotive technology concepts are best taught using fully functioning vehicle component rigs, where an instructor can show students a wide variety of diagnostic and maintenance techniques. Students are also able to perform tasks on systems without the need for a complete vehicle, which in some cases means practical tasks can also take place in the classroom.

Medium/Heavy Truck Trainers

Medium/Heavy Truck Rigs

Just like our light vehicle system and component rigs but bigger! All of our medium/heavy truck rigs are fitted with casters to enable transportation around the workshop.

"The great thing is that we can cover all the areas required by NATEF. It will really give our students a leg up on other students who didn’t work with a system like this."
- Mr Henry Acree, Auto Tech Teacher, Valdosta High School

"It’s totally different here, we’ve got computers and all these trainers. It’s an excellent way to learn and is much better than just reading books. We have our own laptops so I can go home and study, so when I come in here I can get 100%!"
- Alex Diaz, Automotive Student
