The system also includes in-depth multimedia curriculum covering the major topic areas of basic robot operation, programming, interfacing, and material handling. For example, learners will study: homing procedures for a servo robot; commands like grasp, release, and Pmove; and applications of robots in material handling. Amatrol’s combination of theoretical knowledge and hands-on practice allows learners to gain both conceptual and practical knowledge, broadening competency in robotic applications.
Amatrol's Robotics 1 and 2 Simulation Learning Systems (96-RSS1 and 96-RSS2) teaches the programming and operation of the Pegasus articulated servo robot. The Pegasus simulation software includes powerful 3D graphic simulation tool that reproduce the Pegasus and workcells in realistic 3D images with dynamic characteristics similar to actual operation. Learners can see four different views of workspace simultaneously. Solids modeling technology provides a realistic view of program results, including collision detection.
Intro to Civil Engineering
Amatrol’s Structural Engineering 1 Learning System (96-SE1) introduces high school students to the field of civil engineering. Civil engineers are responsible for creating structures such as skyscrapers, bridges, tunnels, dams, mass transit systems, water treatment facilities, and many more structures that we use every day for living, transportation, and industry. Learners will learn the fundamentals of structural analysis as well as bridge design and construction.
The structural engineering training system includes the T9004 Structural Testing Systems consisting of a workstation, bridge component sets, a test fixture set, indicator package, bridge designer software, supplemental CD, and interactive multimedia student curriculum. These components are used to teach topics such as civil engineering careers, structural stability, force vectors, and bridge design.
Intermediate Structural Engineering Training System for High School
Amatrol’s Structural Engineering 2 Learning System (96-SE2) adds to the Structural Engineering 1 Learning System (96-SE1) to teach statics, data acquisition, and bridge design analysis. The data acquisition system uses structural members equipped with stain gauges to measure the forces acting on a structure, constructed by the learners, and the system records these values to provide a clear picture of how the structure is reacting to the applied force. Through calculations and data acquisition analysis, intermediate structural engineering learners will analyze the forces in truss bridge designs.
The intermediate structural engineering training system includes a data acquisition system, bridge components fitted with strain gauges, a test fixture hardware package, and interactive multimedia student curriculum. The learning content covers topics such as bending stress and the moment of inertia, data acquisition, and truss bridge analysis.
Advanced Structural Engineering Training System for High School
Amatrol’s Structural Engineering 3 Learning System (96-SE3) covers a variety of foundational industrial topics including: concrete mixing, placement, and testing; how to control column and beam deflection; preventing columns from buckling; and designing buildings to both support normal loads and to stand up to environmental elements. These skills can be used to move into fields like construction, engineering, and architecture. The 96-SE3 utilizes components from the Structural Engineering 1 Learning System (96-SE1) and builds on knowledge introduced in that system.
The Advanced Structural Engineering training system includes concrete and metal beam component sets and a building component set that allow learners to practice real-world skills while they study the safety steps, advantages of certain materials, and overall theoretical knowledge behind these foundational engineering concepts. Some of the major topic areas covered by the 96-SE3’s curriculum include beam and column design, the fundamentals of concrete, building design, and building construction. This interlacing of theoretical knowledge and hands-on skills builds learner competencies and gives them the knowledge to move on to more advanced structural engineering topics.
Because surveying is utilized in so many aspects of industry, the skills taught by the Surveying 1 Learning System (96-SV1) opens the doors to careers in various fields, such as manufacturing, transportation, and construction. Amatrol’s Surveying training system introduces the fundamentals of surveying, which includes focusing on determining the terrestrial or three-dimensional position of points and the distances and angles between them; this signature Amatrol approach to curriculum reinforces both theory and practice, which produces a well-rounded understanding of the topic.
After completing this training system, learners will be able to operate surveying and mapping tools, including global positioning systems (GPS) associated with surveying, but will also understand the relevant key concepts.
