Pneumatics Learning Solutions

Automatics is a range of products that simplifies the process of teaching and learning about pneumatic and automation systems. The Automatics range has been designed to suit the classroom environment. The pneumatic components are identical to those used by real engineers, but have been cleverly adapted so that students can construct automation systems speedily and without tools. There are around 30 separate rugged components in the range, each one mounted on a clear acrylic carrier which is marked with the appropriate pneumatic or electrical symbol. Students mount the components on to the stable aluminium platform using plastic ‘tee’ bolts and connect the components together with nylon tubing to build working pneumatic circuits.

Automatics in Industry

Now available is the Automatics PLC adaptor rail, meaning that the Automatics range can be used with any PLC. The adaptor rail allows PLCs to connect to relay and motor outputs using standard 4mm connectors which connect directly to other Automatics components. Any programming language, including ladder logic, can be used. PLC adaptor modules available are power distribution, inputs, motor outputs and relays.
