Amatrol’s Mechatronics Learning System – Siemens S7-1500 (870-S715) provides a Siemens S7-1500 programmable logic controller (PLC) with 2-port PROFINET switch used by learners in conjunction with Amatrol’s Mechatronics system to program, operate, and adjust components and applications on an automated production line. PLCs are a vital part of modern industry and are used in innumerable applications across the automotive, manufacturing, packaging, and pharmaceutical industries, just to name a few. Each of Amatrol’s Mechatronics carts requires one Siemens PLC programming learning system, so you can buy one cart to train on a specific skill, such as indexing, pick-and-place, or gauging, or buy the entire Mechatronics system to recreate a fully functional automated line in your classroom or training center!

The Siemens S7-1500 learning system includes a SIMATIC S7-1500 PLC with a PLC mounting console, a 24 VDC power supply, a master control relay, interactive multimedia curriculum, an install guide, and student reference guides. This industrial PLC training system covers major topic areas such as mechatronics safety, electrical sensors, actuator adjustment, stepper motor programming, torque adjustment, discrete I/O handshaking, system startup/halt, and much more! Amatrol’s Mechatronics and PLC training is second-to-none. Featuring real-world industrial components and PLCs, these learning systems will help learners gain hands-on skills and knowledge that can be applied to real, on-the-job tasks.
