Product Details

The Mechatronic Actuators Trainer is an innovative actuator interface for use in your Mechatronics courses.

The compact device provides an intuitive solution for driving up to four types of motors including brushed DC, brushless DC, stepper or servo motors, complete with rotational position and speed feedback, as well as current sense for each. This allows your students to learn the fundamental workings of these actuators and develop key skills in motor selection based on functionality and performance requirements. The courseware provided also explores applications such as controls and transmission mechanisms. This solution is ideal for teaching undergraduate mechatronics, and is accompanied by comprehensive fundamentals labs, integrated challenges, as well as industry relevant open-ended projects.

The ability to control up to four types of actuators allows you to integrate the Mechatronic Actuators Trainer as a core part of student projects such as mobile robots, manipulators, etc. These systems can also be powered and driven by, as well as integrated into other Quanser solutions such as the QBot Platform.

The complete Mechatronics Design Lab features the Actuators Trainer alongside the Mechatronic Sensors Trainer, for a comprehensive and exploratory understanding of hardware interfacing for undergraduate education.
