Basic principles of process automation.

This training program deals with the broad spectrum of technical process automation in a compact way. The characteristics and special features of process automation are conveyed in a simple manner via images from real situations, graphical representations of physical-technical processes and animated processes which you yourself can manage and control.

From the contents
The three chapters "Handling substances", "System planning" and "Process engineering processes in practice", give you a step-by-step guide to a complete on screen system. The content of these chapters is reflected in the MPS® PA stations, which you will use during the practical part of your training.

Handling substances
Product manufacture is usually subject to defined physical and chemical characteristics. The student's awareness should be heightened so that he/she can accurately assess production conditions and deal with them correctly.

System planning
This guides the student around a planning office, providing an insight into the planning and development of a system. The student can examine all the fundamental activities of the planning phase, from the basic principles of project management to drawing a circuit diagram until the system can finally be built.

Process engineering processes in practice
The vast number of process engineering processes can be reduced to four typical ones: filtration, tempering, mixing and filling. Design and function are analysed using the four MPS® PA stations and the modular products from Festo Didactic and answers given to any questions that may arise when studying process engineering processes.

Training time: about 4 hours
