Learners will have the opportunity to study these concepts while working with a hands-on training module, which enables the practice of skills such as connecting and operating a two-way valve and designing a pneumatic circuit to control a reciprocating cylinder; this approach of simultaneously teaching theory and practice reinforces each element and results in a thorough understanding of the topic. This system requires Pneumatics 1, a computer, and a Hand Tool Package (41221).
Pneumatics 2 includes directional control valves, check valve, pneumatic cylinder, Venturi block, assorted filter elements, and much more. Amatrol’s commitment to using top-flight, industry-standard materials ensures that learners work with components they’ll actually see on the job. This attention to quality and detail culminates in a durable, attractive, user-friendly learning system that will last for years.
Print reading skills are essential for anyone directly involved in developing and manufacturing products. Engineers and designers communicate all the technical information required to make a product via prints. Manufacturing personnel must correctly interpret the prints to create the product. Technicians use prints to understand how to repair and troubleshoot machinery. Beginning with the basics, Amatrol’s 96-PR1 Print Reading 1 Learning System leads students to a thorough understanding of print reading techniques and skills.
The 96-PR1 is set up to accommodate either self-directed or traditional classroom formats. This learning system can be used by itself and is also a core system in Amatrol’s project-based learning program. The Print Reading 1 Learning System uses interactive computer- based instruction with both theory and hands-on tutorials consisting of text, digital video, voice, online self-review tests, interactive simulations, color diagrams and color photos. Student curriculum covers industry related skills in print reading, including use of different reference coordinates, creating and editing drawings, using technical drawing views and dimensions, multi-view drawings, and developing schematic diagrams.
Amatrol’s Robotics 1 Learning System (96-ROB1A) teaches articulated arm servo robotics and how it’s applied in industrial tasks like assembly, material handling, and inspection. This introductory robotics training system includes a 5-axis articulated servo robot arm with a 360-degree work envelope, mobile workstation, industrial controller, and state-of-the-art teach pendant. Using these real-world components, learners will be able to practice over 140 executable commands using the powerful MCL II programming language.
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.
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.

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.
