FUEL CELL AS AN ALTERNATIVE DRIVE CONCEPT (UNITRAIN)

The concept of using fuel cells in a vehicle is an alternative to the use of purely electrical vehicles with range extenders. It should be noted that a fuel cell powered vehicle is not considered to be a hybrid system. A fuel cell is merely an energy converter which can also store electrical energy. The idea nevertheless represents a promising alternative since the relatively long range it offers is an impressive factor.

Amatrol’s Mechanical Drives 1 Assessment Workstation (27-MEA1) allows individuals to be evaluated on a variety of hands-on mechanical maintenance skills.

  • Amatrol Pneumatics Assessment 27-PNA1

Amatrol’s Pneumatics 1 Assessment Workstation (27-PNA1) features a compact workstation designed to effectively assess hands-on pneumatics skills with a variety of industry-standard components. Amatrol’s Pneumatics 1 Assessment Workstation (27-PNA1) allows individuals to be evaluated on a variety of hands-on maintenance skills related to pneumatics.
  • Amatrol Pneumatics Trainer 990-PN1

Amatrol’s Portable Pneumatics Learning System (990-PN1) is designed to teach fundamental and advanced pneumatic principles. Pneumatic power forms the basis of numerous industrial applications spanning fields like agriculture, pharmaceuticals, and automation. Through hands-on practice, learners will master the operation of pneumatic cylinders, flow controls, directional control valves, air motors, and pressure gauges. This system requires a compressed air source, a Hand Tool Package (41221), and a computer.

This robust and portable training system features authentic pneumatic components such as rotameters, pressure gauges, flow control valves, and directional control valves. Users will use the included pneumatic hoses to build operational pneumatic circuits based on schematics, honing skills like flowmeter connection and cam-operated sequence circuit operation. Amatrol’s attention to quality ensures learners engage with components relevant to real-world job scenarios.

  • Amatrol Advance Hydraulics Trainer

Amatrol’s Advanced Hydraulics Training System (85-AH) covers hydraulic motor training applications, hydraulic pump and motor performance, and hydraulic fluids and conditioning. Within this advanced hydraulics training system, learners will study how motors are stopped hydraulically, how to use a pump efficiency curve to determine overall efficiency, how to size a conductor, how seal materials are determined by hydraulic fluid type, and more!

The advanced hydraulic training system requires Amatrol’s Intermediate Hydraulics (85-IH) and one of the Basic Hydraulics systems (850-H1, 850-C1, or 85-BH).

  • Amatrol 850-PD1 Basic Pneumatics Trainer

Double Sided A-Frame Bench

Amatrol’s Basic Pneumatics Training System – Double Sided A-Frame Bench (850-PD1) features the Basic Pneumatics Learning System (85-BP) panels mounted on a sturdy, durable A-frame bench with plenty of room for expansion.

Another set of Basic Pneumatics panels can be mounted to the opposite side of the bench to double training capacity, or more advanced pneumatic concepts can be taught by adding Intermediate Pneumatics (85-IP), Advanced Pneumatics (85-AP), or Electro-Pneumatics (85-EP) systems.

  • Amatrol Advance Pneumatics 85-AP

Amatrol’s Advanced Pneumatics training system (85-AP) covers a diverse range of topics, such as how air bearings, pneumatic motors, and pneumatic cylinders are used to move loads; applications for vacuums such as food packaging, as well as how to measure vacuum levels; and a comprehensive look at air compressors, their components, and how to safely operate them. By taking the approach of melding theory and practice, Amatrol curriculum reinforces both, resulting in a learner that can calculate the theoretical lifting force of a vacuum cup and understand how to select the correct pneumatic motor for a specific task.

The 85-AP includes an orifice plate flow meter, quick exhaust valve, suction cup, vacuum generator, vacuum gauge, tubing kit, and weight set with various sizes. These industrial-grade components ensure that learners work with instruments they’d normally only see on the job, which helps them to gain confidence and experience. This commitment to providing real-world components is an example of the attention to quality and detail that’s made Amatrol the world’s leader in skills-based, interactive technical learning.
