Mechatronics Vision Inspection Learning System: 87-VS1AB53A

Amatrol's Mechatronics Vision Inspection Learning System - AB CompactLogix L16 (87-VS1AB53A) uses a camera to examine parts traveling through the 870 Mechatronics system and signals a PLC to reject or accept the parts based on programmed characteristics. Vision inspection systems are vital learning tools for quality control professionals, automated line technicians, and maintenance technicians working in an automated environment. These systems are used in industries such as plastics when looking for short shots or color deviations, assembly for part orientation, and machining when checking parts for correct size, chips, or fractures.

The 87-VS1AB53A includes a vision camera with integrated lighting, PC Vision programming software, a flexible mounting fixture, a training work surface, discrete I/O cabling to PLC, a power supply module, a sample parts set, interactive multimedia curriculum, and a student reference guide. The Vision Inspection system includes interactive multimedia curriculum that covers machine vision basics and software, camera optics, light quality, application design, and system operation.

Learn to Incorporate a Vision System into an Automated Process

The major component of Vision Inspection is an industrial vision camera. This real-world component allows learners to gain hands-on skills with equipment that they'll actually see in the field, which will develop both competence and confidence. The camera features discrete input/output, integrated lighting built into the body of the camera, EtherNet output to a personal computer, and PC Vision programming software.

Integrate with a Variety of Mechatronics Carts or Use with PLC to Learn the Basics

Vision Inspection can be used with any of Amatrol's 870 Mechatronics stations, which include pick and place feeding, gauging, orientation processing, sorting/buffering, servo robotic assembly, torque assembly, inventory storage, CNC mill, and hydraulic press. Vision Inspection can also be used outside of the mechatronics line when hooked to a mechatronics cart's PLC so that learners can focus first on studying the basic operation and functions of the camera before moving onto more advanced topics and skills.

Practice Real-World Vision System Skills

This highly versatile learning system can be used to practice a variety of real-world applications, such as connecting and verifying the functionality of a Machine Vision camera, using Machine Vision software to capture component images, adjusting system lighting to vary image quality, using image software to identify the characteristics of a vision component, and configuring and operating a Machine Vision system for identification, sorting, and assembly verification.

Engaging, Highly-Interactive Multimedia

Amatrol’s eLearning curriculum features a highly-interactive, multimedia format that includes stunning 3D graphics and videos, voiceovers of all text, and interactive quizzes and exercises designed to appeal to learners with different learning styles. The combination of theoretical knowledge and hands-on skills solidifies understanding and creates a strong basis for pursuing more advanced skills. The 87-VS1AB53A's curriculum covers basic programming of vision systems, how to perform inspections, how to output discrete signals to the PLC, how to inspect results using PC software, and much more!

Mechatronics | Automation Systems

Modern industry utilizes complex production systems to produce high-quality, economical products for an ever demanding world. Amatrol’s Mechatronics training programs teach systems-level thinking and industrial automation skill-building that prepares learners for mechatronics operation, hands-on PLC programming, and industrial maintenance and problem solving for real-world manufacturing environments. With the proliferation of automation technology, mechatronics is one of the fastest growing technical education programs in the world. Many technologies are integrated to make these sophisticated production systems including mechanical, electrical, electronics, and software. In order to meet this vital industry demand, Amatrol has developed both a large scale mechatronics line and a portable, tabletop mechatronics training system, each with highly interactive eLearning mechatronics courses. Each of these systems is comprised of individual stations that can be purchased separately when mechatronics training is necessary but budgets must be observed or all together to form a total learning experience. This training experience can apply to various careers such as mechatronics engineer / technician, automation engineer / technician, and systems engineer / technician.
