Amatrol learning systems are composed of heavy-duty components that provide learners with real-world equipment they’ll recognize on the job and already understand how to use. These components will be used to study topics like rough alignment, laser shaft alignment installation, soft foot correction, and laser shaft alignment operation and analysis.
Bearings, Gaskets, & Seals Training
Amatrol’s Mechanical Drives 3 Learning System (97-ME3) covers plain bearings, ball bearings, roller bearings, anti-friction bearing selection and maintenance, gaskets, seals, advanced gear drives, and gear drive selection and maintenance. The drive systems featured in this mechanical drives training system are utilized in countless automotive, agricultural, industrial, and commercial applications, so the advanced manufacturing career fields for learners using these skills are vast. This mechanical drives training expansion system requires the Mechanical Drives 1 Learning System (970-ME1), viscometer, and a computer.
This mechanical drives training system consists of a fastener kit, worm gear speed reducer, ball bearings package, roller bearings package, plain bearings package, angular contact bearings, bearing press, seals package, and helical gear set. Learners will use these real-world components, like bearings and gaskets, to practice hands-on skills, such as troubleshooting a plain bearing installation, selecting a lubricant for an anti-friction bearing, and calculating a diametral path. Amatrol uses components that learners work with in real-world environments in order to facilitate the strongest competency skill building and to supply heavy-duty components that stand up to frequent training use.
Amatrol’s Predictive Maintenance Vibration Analysis Learning System (97-ME5A) adds to the Mechanical Drives 1 training system (970-ME1) to teach how to use vibration analysis to determine when to perform power transmission component maintenance. Vibration analysis is one of the key techniques used in the field of predictive maintenance to determine when to service one or more of a machine’s components, either making a replacement or adjustment, before a failure actually occurs. Learners will practice industry-relevant skills including how to use a vibration meter to take a vibration measurement, how and where to take various power transmission system measurements, how to read power transmission vibration analysis, and how to minimize vibration.
Amatrol’s Machine Tool Chip Conveyor Learning System (97-ME4E) adds to Mechanical Drives training (970-ME1) to teach chip conveyor installation, operation, adjustment, conveyor belt removal, conveyor maintenance, and conveyor troubleshooting. Machine tool chip conveyors carry metal chips produced by machine tools and use heavy-duty steel link belts usually arranged in a serpentine shape.
The 97-ME4E trainer features an endless belt, manual start/stop control, electric motor drive, safety guards, and more! Learners use these components to study the operation, installation, construction, cleaning, and troubleshooting a chip conveyor.
