Interfacing, Programming & Sequencing
Amatrol’s 87-MS6, Torque Assembly, is mobile training station 6 of the 870 Mechatronics Learning System. The 87-MS6 station is a small Mechatronics system in itself with multiple, integrated technologies that can be used stand-alone or in combination with other training work stations. Industrial safety and operation are emphasized on all Amatrol Mechatronic stations.
Mechatronics Technician Training
Amatrol’s Automated Inventory Storage System (87-MS7) is the seventh station of the 870 Mechatronics Learning System and allows learners to gain valuable skills used in inventory storage processes by studying operation, adjustment, and programming of an inventory storage system. This learning system will allow learners to practice and study operating a programmable parts storage station, adjusting a phototransistor optical interrupter switch, and designing a PLC program that provides manual/auto/reset functions for a programmable parts storage station.
This mechatronics learning system features real-world components like infrared sensors, pneumatic grippers and brakes, pick and place storage and more! Learners will use these and other components to practice mechatronics safety, torque clamp module sequencing, station operation, and non-servo electric slide sequencing. Amatrol uses components that learners will find on-the-job in order to give the best opportunity to build confidence and industrial competencies.
CNC Programming Training
The Mechatronic CNC Mill Training System (87-MS8M60) allows learners to use a Denford CNC Micromill in conjunction with Amatrol’s Mechatronics Servo Robotic Assembly Station (87-MS5-P2). This combination provides hands-on practice for incorporating machining and CNC Mill integration within an automated lines process. In addition to integrated automation/machining skills, learners will study about CNC programming fundamentals. Because CNC mills are used to create a variety of parts and components, learners entering the manufacturing industry will find this learning system’s hands-on practice and real-world skills invaluable.
This system includes a variety of real-world components including a Denford Micromill, mobile workstation, electro-pneumatic vise with filter/regulator, tooling package, robot-to-CNC interface, and an electro-pneumatic chip blower. The 87-MS8M60 also features world-class interactive multimedia curriculum, an install guide, and a student reference guide.
Amatrol’s Mechatronics Electro-Hydraulic Training Station (87-MS9) allows learners to gain valuable product testing skills used in automated processes by studying topics like station operation and adjustment, module sequencing, and station sequencing. This learning system will allow learners to practice and study how products are tested on an automated line, how these skills are integrated within a larger automated process, and an example of how hydraulics are utilized on an automated line.
The 87-MS9 requires either an Allen-Bradley CompactLogix or Siemens S7300 Mechatronics Learning System (870-MPC) and integrates seamlessly with Amatrol’s full Mechatronics System or can be used with just the Torque Assembly (87-MS6) and Inventory Storage (87-MS7) Stations.
Allen-Bradley and Siemens PLCs
87-MSSAB12, 87-MSSAB53, 87-MSSAB53A, 87-MSSS7
Amatrol's MechaSIM Mechatronics Simulation Learning Systems (87-MSS) allow learners to study programs for Allen-Bradley and Siemens PLCs and then use those programs to run real-world applications in a simulated mechatronics environment. Learners can then use the programs to control actual mechatronics equipment after testing it in the simulation. Amatrol offers MechaSIM systems for the following controlers: AB CompactLogix L32 and L16, AB MicroLogix, and Siemens S7-300. These MechSIM systems can interface to any of Amatrol's Mechatronics carts.
Amatrol’s PLC Project Station – AB Micro810 (87-PPSAB1) is a compact, mobile programmable logic controller (PLC) training/application module. It allows standalone training via a simulator breakout panel that features output indicators, push buttons, a two-position selector switch, and a power on/off switch.
Amatrol’s Servo Robot Station for Tabletop Mechatronics (87-TMS4) provides robot integration for Table Top Mechatronics with the Pegasus servo robot mounted on a traverse. Fully supported by Amatrol’s curriculum, learners will practice robot programming and robot interfacing to Amatrol’s portable Mechatronics system to create applications such as a robot-based inventory station. The ability to expand a Tabletop Mechatronics system to include a servo robot is unmatched in the industry.
To update the Tabletop Mechatronics System for operation with the Pegasus robot, this robot integration package includes three conveyor chute assemblies and a feeder assembly all equipped with sensors. These sensors are wired to the Mechatronics system’s PLC to indicate when parts are present. Additionally, this system contains replacement foot supports, used to adjust system height, and other items required to interface the servo robot and servo traverse to Tabletop Mechatronics.
AB CompactLogix L16 Learning System
Amatrol’s Vision Inspection Learning Systems (87-VS1AB53A) teach the use of web-based maintenance communications in a Smart Factory environment. These systems use a machine vision camera to examine parts traveling through the 870-series Mechatronics system and signal a PLC to reject or accept parts based on results from the examinations. The system can be used as a standalone product, but it is highly suggested for use with one or more Mechatronics carts.
The Smart Factory network communications training systems feature real-world equipment learners will encounter on the job, including configuring PC Vision Programming Software. The systems combine hands-on skills practice with in-depth multimedia curriculum for a well-rounded learning experience that will prepare learners to make an immediate impact in the technologically-advanced Smart Factory environments of the present and future through major topics like machine vision basics, machine vision operation, and machine vision software.
Amatrol’s Pegasus Robotics Simulation Learning System (88-RSS1) teaches the programming and operation of the Pegasus articulated servo robot. The Pegasus simulation software includes powerful 3D graphic simulation tools that reproduce the Pegasus and the workcells in realistic 3D images with dynamic characteristics similar to actual operation. Learners can see four different views of a workspace simultaneously. Solids modeling technology provides a realistic view of program results, including collision detection.
The programs simulated in the Pegasus software are the same used by the actual robot. Learners can simulate an application using the software and then transfer that program to the robot for real-world operation. This capability enables multiple learners to effectively share a single robot, a “must” for project-oriented classrooms. The software is Windows compatible and includes a virtual teach pendant, interpreter window for execution viewing, digital I/O handling, and an excellent library of workcell objects. Modern robotic engineers and operators are using this form of graphic modeling to create, test, and extend robotic applications.
Hands-On Allen-Bradley ControlLogix Skills
The PLC Analog Application Learning System – ControlLogix (89-AS-AB5500) adds to the Programmable Controller Troubleshooting Workstation (890-PECB) and the PLC Troubleshooting Learning System-AB ControlLogix (890-AB5500) to teach PLC control of analog input and output devices. Analog I/O capability enables PLCs to more precisely control processes by providing variable output signals and receiving variable input feedback from sensors. Popular applications include temperature control, liquid level control, and variable speed conveyors.
The analog training system includes an analog application station, cable assembly, Allen-Bradley ControlLogix combination analog module, student learning materials for both theory and lab, and a teacher’s assessment guide. Students will learn industry relevant skills including how to operate, interface, program and troubleshoot PLC systems using analog I/O.
