CIM automation products is especially designed for engineering graduates. Students can study the theory and work with the system to get a sound knowledge of the CIM, which allows for transversal applications in the following areas: Automation, Pneumatics, Mechatronics, Electronics, Process Control, etc. Our system is composed of different modules, each one reproducing a single basic application that is commonly used in the industry. Computer-Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) is a method of manufacturing in which the entire production process is controlled by computer. Typically, it relies on closed-loop control processes, based on real-time input from sensors. The whole system is controlled by one Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) and it can be configured to perform a complete process. Each module is implemented with real electronics, mechanics and pneumatics components and has a specific function. As an integrated computer system, the output of one activity serves as the input to the next activity, through the chain of events.

Pneumatics is a flexible system composed of a vertical frame where the modules are easily inserted for the execution and/or the demonstration of the pneumatic circuits; it also allows obtaining several sequential cycles, by following standard techniques and procedures. A modular system provides teachers with the best tool for developing training courses related to both logics and pneumatics/electro Pneumatics control techniques. Through our trainers, students have the possibility of studying a collection of main components, for a better understanding of pneumatics and electro-pneumatics techniques. The standard symbols of the different components are clearly shown on the modules, to facilitate the connection of both the air pipes and the electric cables, besides explaining the function of each component. Pneumatic connections are performed by means of pipes and fast release joints; electric connections are through 2 mm. cables, since the electric devices and components (sensors, coils, relays, etc.) need a low power consumption and, therefore, the supply voltage can be low and safe (24Vdc).
