Mechatronics Assistant: The new 10,000-page teachware concept on CD-ROM


The time previously lost researching, copying, collating, stapling and distributing is a thing of the past. The new Mechatronics Assistant is a syllabus-oriented, structured archive on CD-ROM containing all the documentation you need for your classes, whether in vocational colleges or factories:

  • Practice and subject-oriented book of exercises with solutions, including for all MPS® stations
  • Drawings, circuit diagrams and graphics
  • Video sequences
  • Presentations
  • Technical documentation, operating instructions and safety notes
  • Manuals and other aids

Universal tool
The Mechatronics Assistant is thus a multimedia tool for project work, training and examination preparation. A hypertext-based reference work for all areas related to automation training and a planning aid for the training of mechatronics specialists and related specialities.

More than 2,000 pages of exercises
Ready-to-use exercises on modules, stations and systems mean that the lesson on MPS® can start immediately. The trainer can choose from both introductory exercises and complex project exercises. All of the exercises can be easily changed and saved as custom exercises so that trainers can create their own archives.

Over 500 transparencies and more than 1,000 pages of lesson material for the trainer
The trainer's binder contains not only ready-to-print trainee and trainer manuals, but also extensive transparency sets, prepared templates for creating custom exercises and worksheets as well as numerous tips on working with the  Mechatronics Assistant.

Condensed information
More than 500 pages on over 25 topics: fundamentals of mechatronics as a reference or introduction to a new topic.

The Mechatronics Assistant Archive has several unique features that simplify your work.

Source formats Many documents in the Mechatronics Assistant are available in source format (e.g. .doc, .dxf, .ppt). This allows you to tailor the documents to your needs and update them as required.

Multi-dimensional database structure All documents in the Mechatronics Assistant are structured on multiple levels:

  • Training-oriented (toward the Mechatronics specialist syllabus)
  • Subject-oriented (commissioning, troubleshooting, programming, installation)
  • MPS® station-oriented

Cross-referencing via hyperlinks
Additional information can be accessed via hyperlinks embedded in the text. Graphics provided in source format are also linked by keywords, allowing you to search for graphics via keyword.

A tool for teachers and trainees
Structure and handling are designed to allow trainees to work independently on an exercise using the Mechatronics Assistant. Here they find everything necessary for solving a task. All solutions are available in a password-protected area.

Master the technology with confidence
Our premium documentation, which sets new standards, will help you in this: all 3D configuration instructions on stations, modules and components, all manuals, operating instructions and data sheets are now available in electronic form. This does away with the need for long searches since the technical documentation required for all exercises and projects is always to hand. More than 5,000 pages of technical documentation – now that's what you call complete!

But that's not all:
We have also set up a service page for Mechatronics Assistant users. Simply download updates, new exercises, sample programs and project ideas free of charge. This gives you an advantage with your training – your Mechatronics Assistant develops in line with your needs:
