School Holiday Mechatronics Training Program
Learning ObjectivesMecLab covers a variety of topics and
objectives including:
• Introduction to industrial automation
• Technical terms
• Planning, developing, and building
automated systems
• Technical documentation
• Building models and creating simulations
• Open and closed-loop control systems
• Pneumatic and electrical actuators,
sensors and controllers
• Using computers as tools for
programming and simulation
Realistic and Challenging
MecLab replicates industrial production
processes using only industrial
components.
The system includes a range of exercises designed to challenge the student in a “hands-on” environment of constructing, modifying, and programming an automated Mechatronic system.
All necessary tools and hardware required for making modifications are included.
Wiring of the electrical components is simple, using standard industrial connectors.
Modular and Flexible
MecLab stations can be used individually. Each station performs a practical function and safely demonstrates the characteristics
of a fully automated process.
The stations can be joined together to form more complex “production lines”.
Students can take on the role of engineer and design special exercises and projects, including joining the three stations together to form a mini production line.
