Tabletop Mechatronics Smart Factory Details

This system has 5 stations that connect to make a full mechatronics line, in addition to numerous accessory technologies that interact with the system. The system can be broken into individual stations for students to perform skills.

Smart Sensors and Product ID

• Tabletop Smart Factory RFID/Sensors (87-TMS5): Includes RFID, photoelectric sensor, pressure sensor, I/O link master, and conveyor to cover RFID programming and operation, pressure/vacuum sensors, and more.
• Tabletop Smart Factory Barcode (87-TBR1): Includes barcode reader and Ethernet-to-serial interface to cover barcode operation, scan accuracy, barcode programming, etc.

Network Communications

• Tabletop Mechatronics Smart Factory Ethernet (87-TEN): Includes a 24-port unmanaged and 8-port managed Ethernet switch to cover industrial networks, Ethernet IP addresses, network performance, managed switch Ethernet, and switch diagnostics.

Smart Maintenance and Production

• Tabletop Smart Factory Manufacturing Execution (87-TME): Includes manufacturing execution software that can control multiple sensors to cover order entry, scheduling, schedule status, production statistics, and alarms.
• Tabletop Smart Factory Visual Communications (87-TVC): Includes visual communications software for use in a mobile app to cover cloud-based data acquisition, SCADA operation, maintenance management operation, and and how to configure cloud-based SCADA and maintenance management.

This five station system connects with Amatrol’s Portable PLC Troubleshooting Learning System – AB Compact Logix (990-PABCL1F), which shows performance analysis of the system via I/O Link. Performance analysis information includes transmitter pressure, photoeye signal strength, material type for parts passing through the system, RFID tag output, and more! This system uses a selection of Rockwell Automation products to provide the most realistic industrial experience. Amatrol is a Rockwell Automation OEM Gold Partner.

This system also includes Smart Factory components for Ethernet (87-TEN), RFID/Sensors (87-TMS5), Barcode (87-TBR), and more!
