Bending Machine 24V

 

Industry-orientated and hands-on - fit for the future!

The fischertechnik Bending Machine 24V is the ideal training model for in-company and inter-company training and further education. Apprentices, students and trainees develop sustainable learning experiences on the physical training model. The practice-orientated approach is successful thanks to a comprehensive PLC course, which introduces learners step by step to working with programmable logic controllers. From creating a sequence description in GRAFCET, to reading and using a circuit diagram, to programming in a function block diagram or structured text and finally commissioning the training model, our PLC course covers all the points needed to be able to apply the knowledge learnt in a real industrial environment. 

Didactic approaches of the Bending Machine 24V
​

Classic PLC course
- Physical model

Our classic PLC course is based on the curricula for mechatronics and electronics engineering apprenticeships, providing students with the ideal preparation for vocational training exams.

  • Purpose: Learning classic PLC programming.
  • Ideal for: Vocational education.
  • Where? On our homepage.
  • How? Free of charge to download.

Virtual commissioning course
- Digital twin

The virtual commissioning course is implemented using a digital twin of the physical system, including an emulated PLC. Course participants are introduced to the handling of digital twins, virtual commissioning and its advantages in a didactic way.

  • Purpose: Learning virtual commissioning and sequence logic modelling.

  • Ideal for: Vocational education, universities.

  • Where? Skillwerk – the eLearning platform for industrial automation.

  • How? Free of charge, to be activated with a code.
