This mini-plant is one of the first real processes.It was developed to provide training , with a better and practical approach to the automation or control of industrial processses, for all type of disciplines such us: electrical, electronics, mechanics, mechatronics, acontrol, automation, industrial, chemical, food and beverages, enviromental and production.

You can make lab practices on feedback, PID, multivariable and robust control. Several techniques such as classical, modern, and advanced control can be applied. All of them in real context. For technical, engineering, master or doctorate studies.

This system is both: educational and real. The whole process is instrumental according to your needs to produce small batches of Malta, Beer or Soda.

A new training system which will allow you:

• To know all the technology behind the fuel cell
• How to generate electricity from hydrogen and oxygen.
• Regulate the voltage and turn it into effective work on read loads.
• Parasitic load monitoring.
• Simulate process on fuel efficiency.
• Understand the concepts on technology which makes a vehicle more efficient with the hydrogen generation.
• Know about all the environmental advantages of this technology.... Read more...

Discover why the big oil companies are inverting on Algae technology

For many years it was consider tat the biomass coming from the vegetables products was a good solution to the complex situation of replacing fossil fuel.
From 2009, new research studies allowed to know that the fuel obtained from the algae, has more advantages, than those ones derivate from the food, to partially or totally replace fossil fuel.
Our biofuel algae production plant is a novedous initiative to allows you to know the algae process and you will understand why it has became the focus of vegetable production.
Our plant allows you to do research, education, training and entre entrepreneurship around one of the most interesting technologies.... Read more...

This control lab is now more real.
Now students from different engineering background can make control labs from more realistic perspective: Our Speed, Position and Generation plant is of 250 watts.

Three different control practices.
The system allows to work position control: 0-360 degrees, Speed control: 0-1730rpm/60rpm, Voltage generation: 0-90VDC. For the visualization there is a front indicator.

PC or stand-alone control.
You can use a PC and your favorite control software along with signal conditioning boards. You can also use all types of control devices such us micro-controller, PLC, DAQ boards or stand-alone PCs. We offer you our powerful PTS F1616 control trainer for standalone applications where no computer is needed. See features. .....Read more....

 

The inverted pendulum is an excellent lab practice for those interested in control, systems, mechanics, process, electronics, mechatronics   and robotics. This is a very fundamental application for robotics to understand among other concepts, the equilibrium concept.

The pendulum is one of the typical applications in control theory. Despite it’s simple appearance, its importance relies on the fact that control algorithms can be numerous and complex.

For human beings it is relatively easy to balance a sweep on the finger’s tip. Our brain coordinates the movement of the hand with the needed force and direction to avoid the sweep yo fall or to lose its equilibrium condition. But for robots it´s quite a task ............Read more....

 

This trainer allows to understand the operation of system to supply urban and rural locations.
From the educational point of view this plant allows you:

• Study of the electrical behavior of a tri-phase motor, measuring of its electrical parameters, usages and consumption optimization, efficiency, traceability, consumption and operational cost.
• Manual and electrical activation of different control valves to command conditions on water supply capacity of a municipality water system.
• Variable measurement of related variables like pressure, flow, level. Alarm signal to help in control decisions.
• Verifying the way a simple filtering system works and understand the effects on water purification of water supply system. The filter can be removed.
• Understanding of water extraction on rural locations.

If you get our PTS F1616 trainer to use it as control element, you can make also the following practices...... Read more...

• Ethanol from biomass
• Research on other celulose alternatives.
• Learn all the processes involved in these technologies.

The world is currently needing a change to improve the vital conditions. In the quest for oil’s substitutes, researchers have been exploring renewables materials like wheat, sugar cane and oil plant, but since these ones are considered food, most of the scientists agree on the fact that food security can be affected.

Excellent for Research and Education.

Our bioethanol production plant is the ideal match for any research on biofuel production from biodegradable material (Biomass) manily starch, allowing you experimentation from different angles.

Research

This Bioethanol production plant is able to produce small batches of ethanol from different vegetable raw material, to allow the experimentation and research on their efficiency.
