Learning Outcomes
The 87-SWPF1V provides all the components students need to practice real-world, hands-on skills that are necessary to operate a robotic palletizer workcell. Using the robotic arm and its vision guidance capabilities, students will test and adjust joint travel limits, configure robot vision settings to capture and identify an image, and design a program to sort packages by reading barcodes. The variable speed electro-pneumatic transport conveyors are equipped with multiple safety devices, such as light curtains with photo eye sensors and a stack light, that students will test to recognize proper safety practices.
The PC-based HMI software that accompanies the system teaches students to navigate multiple control menus, such as 2D/3D workcell overview, subsystems, system schematics, an alarm screen, and order entry. Utilizing these menus, students can operate the workcell manually, create sample customer orders, acknowledge system alarms, and more. The system also includes FaultPro, Amatrol’s computer-based fault-insertion system, which allows students to troubleshoot faults in multiple areas of the workcell.
Learning outcomes include:

Curriculum
eLearning: All Amatrol training systems have interactive, multimedia eLearning courses and modules tied to these learning concepts. This curriculum utilizes text with voiceovers, pictures, videos, stunning 3D animations, interactive quizzes and knowledge checks, pre- and post-quizzes and more. Through partnerships with key industry leaders and leading educators, Amatrol developed the right balance of knowledge to train learners to work in their chosen field.
Student Reference Guides: A sample copy of the Student Reference Guide is included with the learning system. Sourced from the curriculum, the Student Reference Guide takes the entire series’ technical content contained in the learning objectives and combines them into one perfectly bound book. You may also purchase as many additional SRGs as you need.
