Amatrol’s eLearning curriculum is unique in that it thoughtfully combines in-depth theoretical knowledge with practical, hands-on skills. This powerful combination of knowledge and skills solidifies understanding and creates a strong foundation for pursuing more advanced skills.

For example, the mechatronics eLearning course covers important topics, such as:

Automation Operations

Learners begin with an introduction to automation operations. Individual lessons focus on topics like control system concepts, mechatronics safety, and machine operator functions. Learners will also practice skills, such as identifying control system component types, performing a lockout/tagout on a pneumatic system, and powering up an automated machine.

Pick-and-Place Feeding

Learners using Amatrol’s mechatronics eLearning course will study basic principles of pick and place feeding systems. Individual lessons focus on topics like station operation, component adjustment, and module and station sequencing. Learners will also practice skills, such as operating a pick-and-place feeding station, adjusting a shock absorber, and designing a PLC program that sequences a powered parts feeder.

Electro-Hydraulic Testing

Learners will study various aspects and components of electro-hydraulic testing. Individual lessons focus on topics like electro-hydraulic test system operation, pick-and-place manipulator operation, and electro-hydraulic test station sequencing. Learners will also practice skills, such as programming and operating a programmable electronic pressure sensor, operating an electro-hydraulic test system, and designing a PLC program that sequences a pick-and-place manipulator.
