Explore Simumatik, a cloud-based platform with a library of industrial components to build control systems from scratch, program with PLCs via OPC UA or MQTT, and collaborate in a workspace.
Learn to build a simple motor on-off control in mechatronics with Simumatik: assemble a panel, switch, contactor, three-phase supply, and conveyor, then simulate the system with its physics engine.
Design a motor direction control using a three-phase power circuit, circuit breaker, and a reversible contactor energized by two push buttons and an emergency stop in Simumatik.
Connects Simumatik with Codesys via OPC UA to control a conveyor motor through PLC inputs and sensors, linking GVL to OPC UA and enabling forward and reverse operation and troubleshooting.
Interface a Siemens S71200 PLC with OPC UA in Simumatik to control an electro-pneumatic circuit, using reed switches for feedback and a 5/3 valve with 6 bar air.
Control IIoT devices in Simumatik using MQTT, publishing topics to a local broker via Node-RED to turn lamps, fans, or sensors on and off.
Code and Compile presents you with an amazing cloud-based emulation platform i.e. Simumatik to use all your ideas to create intelligent Mechatronics systems using PLC, Conveyors, sensors, or IIoT devices. Why settle for limited scenario simulations, when you can create a virtual system that behaves exactly like the real thing.
Whether your goal is cost and time savings in industry, or getting closer to new technology in education, this course will give you an introduction about how to use simulation as a competitive edge in the Industry 4.0 age.
Keeping up to date on new technology. Managing teaching resources. Dealing with a growing demand to make your course accessible remotely and online. Professionals in technical education have to manage these challenges.
