The Tim King Electronics Inc. Standard Model System is a stand-alone
model system. This means that no two of these models will connect together
to make a factory system. Each model in this system is unique and presents
a different programming challege. Some of the models can be wired and program
with fischertechnik computing interface using GW BASIC or the new FI PRO
Software. (Note GW BASIC works only with a 386 computer or LESS.) The more
advance models are to be used with an Allen Bradley SLC-150 or SLC-500 system.
Each model comes with diagrams, ladder logic for the SLC-150, flow charts
and address sheets. The one unique model in this system is the Dual Welder
Model. This model come with a programming book that leads the student step
by step how to program the model using ladder logic along with the diagrams,
addressing sheets, and flow charts.
Main Features of the Tim King Electronics Inc. Standard Model System
are:
- Model is a stand-alone model needing not other addition models to complete
a system.
- Model has standard wiring that can be order for the fischertechnik interface
or PLC wiring (basic models only).
- Advance model has standard wiring for PLC only.
- All models use this type of wiring system for quick set-up and tear-down
time.
- Model can be order wired for Allen Bradley SLC-150 or SLC-500 System.
- Model only simulates factory operations. Models only simulates cutting,
punching and drilling operations limiting the possibility of injury.
- Model uses standard fischertechnik parts for easy repair and replacement.
Limited number of parts needed for inventory to maintain models.
- Model is designed to operate / teach with a different programming concepts.
- Model can be used for training or demonstration.
- Model can be customize for your special needs.
- Model come with diagrams, addressing sheets, ladder logic, and flow
charts.
The Tim King Electronics Inc. Standard Model System is an effective method
of teaching because it allows for the following reasons:
- "Hand-On" learning with materials that motivate students in
an environment that is both challenging and fun.
- Immediate feedback and the testing of ideas on a system that allows
students to see how actual mechanisms and processes work.
- Real time analysis of automation programming concepts
- Low cost part replacement when mistakes are made. System doesn't required
a large expensive part inventory to maintain model system.
- Model only simulate machining operations. No dangerous cutters, punching,
or drilling to injure students or customers.
