Jib crane technical kit

Teach career-relevant basics of the metal and electrical industry combined with modern automation technologies as part of an exciting and innovative project.

Function and Applications 

This kit provides you with everything you need for this: The kit is divided into different modules so that you can construct the jib crane step by step. Each module deals with a specific aspect of production (e.g. filing, drilling, sheet metal processing), which enables a targeted and systematic approach. By actively participating in the manufacturing process, the content and skills learned are permanently retained in the learner's memory. Metalworking, electronics and automation in one kit!

Benefits

• Comprehensive basic project with all the skills required in the metal and electrical industry
• Modular structure: Each module can be worked on individually and can be paused at any time Modularly expandable: e.g. expansion to include a status light for in-depth turning and milling in conjunction with an LED running light (LED running light)
• Connection with an LED running light (software is supplied)
• Connection of various controllers as required (Arduino, Nucleo, Siemens, Festo, etc.) - No experience in handling micro-controllers necessary (program pre-installed)

Skills

The kit teaches the most important skills of the metal and electrical industry:

• Filing
• Drilling
• Bending
• Pinning
• Soldering / welding
• Turning / Milling
• Force calculation
• 3D printing
• Sheet metal working
• Drive technology
• Joining technology

Optimal exam preparation

The slewing crane kit from PHYWE not only supports practical understanding, but also provides optimum preparation for examination situations in the fields of metal, mechanics and electrics. Budding mechatronics engineers can apply their knowledge in a targeted manner and ideally align their skills with the examination requirements. For example, the linear axis of the slewing jib crane corresponds to the one used in the final examination part 2 "Mechatronics technician".

Equipment and Technical Data

The kit provides you with all the components for constructing the slewing jib crane and creates a structured learning environment in which the project work can be implemented efficiently:

• Standard parts, semi-finished products, circuit boards and electric drives
• Training documents, such as drawing sets, assembly drawings, images and videos
• Micro-controller software
