In this video, Amatrol Regional Sales Manager Mike Idle provides an overview of Amatrol’s new HVAC Controls Learning System, including its operation and main features. The HVAC Controls training system combines a hands-on workstation with an interactive eLearning curriculum to teach the installation, operation, application, and troubleshooting of control systems related to the HVAC industry.

The hands-on workstation runs on single-phase power and features manual fault insertion and optional electronic fault insertion for advanced troubleshooting training. Users will gain practical experience with real industrial HVAC components, such as single-phase AC compressor and blower motors, an electronic temperature controller, a programmable digital thermostat, and a programmable defrost controller.

Safety is a top priority of the HVAC Controls training system. Users will learn the basics of lock-out/tag-out and gain hands-on experience with safety features like sheathed leads and guards over components.

This video offers an overview of DAC Worldwide's Pump Maintenance with Alignment Trainer, showcasing its functionality and key attributes. This trainer utilizes a standard ANSI centrifugal pump to demonstrate the step-by-step process of disassembling and reassembling this commonly used pump type.

Specifically designed for benchtop training in industrial pump operations, this system features a transparent acrylic backhead that enables detailed instruction on pump packing procedures and the proper installation of mechanical seals. With a simulated motor element and movable flanged bearings, the trainer facilitates teaching shaft alignment by allowing adjustments for angular and parallel misalignment.

Comprising authentic industrial components like an ANSI centrifugal pump, backhead/stuffing box, aluminum motor element, replaceable steel shaft with keyways, and aluminum motor mounting pads, this trainer offers hands-on learning opportunities.

In this informative video, Amatrol's Regional Sales Manager, Mike Idle, presents an in-depth overview of the Portable PLC Troubleshooting Learning System - AB CompactLogix L16 by Amatrol. This compact yet powerful training system is centered around the Allen-Bradley L16 CompactLogix 5300 PLC, designed to teach PLC programming, operational insights, and industrial applications conveniently and safely.

The portable PLC trainer from Amatrol is not just about instruction; it emphasizes the mastery of crucial PLC troubleshooting skills. It incorporates Amatrol’s FaultPro, an industry-leading computer-based fault insertion system, to teach PLC input and output testing, software diagnostics, and application troubleshooting effectively.

Amatrol’s interactive eLearning curriculum covers a diverse array of topics, including PLC programming, motor control, event sequencing, PanelView Plus application editing, analog I/O, troubleshooting PLC systems, and more.

Beyond the Allen-Bradley L16 CompactLogix 5300 PLC, this portable trainer exposes users to various real-world components like the PanelView Plus terminal, Ethernet Switch, I/O Simulator, and a master control relay circuit, enhancing practical understanding.

Users gain hands-on experience in actual industrial applications, from temperature control to motor control with feedback, imparting practical skills essential for the workplace.

Amatrol’s portable PLC training system goes beyond theory, equipping users with hands-on proficiency needed in professional settings. It includes exercises such as programming with Studio 5000 software, designing PLC projects for motor control, stepper motor operations, and troubleshooting various PLC routines and devices.

Allowing industries to evaluate the digestibility, functionality, and bioavailability of nutrients in food and perform release tests of bioactive substances in the digestion process.

Caracol's printing heads - High Accuracy, High Versatility, High Flow - are conceived to be integrated within the Large Format Additive Manufacturing system Heron AM, to provide the best fit to each customer's production need.

Elevate your industrial maintenance skills with DAC Worldwide's Basic Coupling/Shaft Alignment Trainer (208D-000)!
Modeled after the dimensions of a common ANSI centrifugal pump, the Basic Coupling/Shaft Alignment Trainer enables learners to master various alignment techniques and tools crucial in today’s industrial maintenance. DAC Worldwide’s Basic Coupling/Shaft Alignment Trainer offers hands-on experience for the tasks users will encounter on the job.

Amatrol's hands-on training system features a portable setup for in-depth learning of Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) operations and troubleshooting, specifically using the Allen-Bradley L16ER CompactLogix 5370 PLC, PanelView 800 HMI terminal, and networks. It covers programming, motor control, pneumatics, and more, with components such as an Allen-Bradley L16ER 5370 Processor & HMI Screen, pneumatic cylinders, control valves, potentiometer, variable speed drive, external I/O interface, temperature control, and an emergency stop button.

Additionally, the system can integrate with Industry 4.0 as a PLC training device and Tabletop Smart Factory cell controller, connecting physical systems and human assets for a fully-connected manufacturing experience. The FaultPro Technology allows users to implant 30+ faults for troubleshooting, enhancing practical skills in real-world scenarios. The interactive multimedia curriculum by Amatrol incorporates various learning methods and covers topics like PLC operation, Ethernet communication, motor control, timer instructions, event sequencing, counter instructions, HMI operation, and component/systems troubleshooting.

In this video, Stratasys' applications engineer demonstrates the process of loading and unloading material spools.

The design team at Labomed, one of the top 10 global medical device brands, uses two Stratasys FDM™ (Fused Deposition Modeling) F170 3D printers to produce prototypes for ophthalmology, gynecology, ENT, and more.
