Hands-on industrial maintenance training systems built with genuine hardware — from first-time learners to advanced PID troubleshooting.
Real flow control, dual PID loops & live fault finding on industrial hardware.
Your first step into industrial automation — built for complete beginners.
Locktronics-powered circuits with a genuine Siemens LOGO! PLC.
Real Flow Control. Real Industrial Skills.
Students can see and touch real industrial hardware from Siemens, IFM, Banner, Burkert, WAGO, TE Connectivity and more — not simulations.
Debug real faults inserted live during operation — sensor failures, incorrect parameters, unreachable setpoints. Students watch flow rates change and troubleshoot via the HMI, exactly as they would on-site.
Featuring both a Siemens PLC and HMI. All code lives in one project file, fully adjustable via TIA Portal — completely open and available.
A real industrial LOTO padlock and locking mechanism lets students physically shut off and lock out the industrial valve — gaining vital real-world experience at their desk.
One for beginners who've never heard of a PLC — walking through every component. A second for experienced students with realistic troubleshooting scenarios.
Unlike traditional PLC trainers, students work with a real closed-loop flow control system. Dual PID loops control both the proportional valve and pump speed — tune parameters live and observe real-time changes in system behaviour and stability.
The entire system runs from a 24V DC SELV supply with no mains voltages — significantly safer for classrooms while still delivering real industrial maintenance experience.
Learn How Real Industrial Control Panels Work
Genuine components from Siemens, IFM, Omron, Banner, WAGO, ABB and more. Every button, relay, sensor and terminal reflects what learners will encounter in real electrical control panels.
Zero experience needed. Designed for students who have never opened a control panel. The curriculum starts with absolute fundamentals and builds confidence step-by-step through hands-on interaction.
Both PLC and HMI programs included. The WinCC Unified HMI features 12 beautiful graphical demo programs for users to explore and learn from.
Developed specifically for maintenance engineers and technicians — not software developers. The focus is on understanding hardware, signals, diagnostics and industrial behaviour.

A real industrial LOTO padlock and locking mechanism lets students physically shut off and lock out the industrial emergency stop — gaining vital real-world experience at their desk.
Students don't just watch simulations. They press real buttons, trigger sensors, rotate potentiometers, monitor live PLC I/O, and observe motors and relays operating in real time.
Most beginner PLC trainers focus only on ladder logic. This system teaches the wider industrial maintenance picture — electrical panels, sensors, relays, analogue signals, safety circuits and troubleshooting.

Learn PLCs and Industrial Sensors with Locktronics & Siemens LOGO!
Ideal for learners taking their first steps into PLCs, automation and industrial control. Activities start with basic I/O before progressing into sequencing, analogue signals, PWM, fault detection and feedback control.
Structured experiments covering basic outputs, sequenced outputs, PWM, digital inputs, pedestrian crossing logic, potentiometers, sensors, fault detection, open-loop control and closed-loop control.
Helps students understand signal behaviour, device operation, wiring, component limits, fault symptoms and how PLCs interact with field devices.
Example programs transfer via the supplied USB stick and SD card reader. Advanced users can create or modify programs using Siemens LOGO! Soft Comfort.
Students learn using a genuine Siemens LOGO! logic controller — real industrial PLC experience, not a simulated or simplified classroom-only controller.
Designed to operate from a 24V supply — suitable for classroom and workshop use while still giving students practical experience with industrial control concepts.
Combines Siemens LOGO! control with the Matrix Locktronics industrial sense and control range — students build real circuits using sensors, switches, relays, motors, lamps, potentiometers and actuator modules.
Students aren't limited to fixed front-panel exercises. They physically construct custom sensing and control circuits on the Locktronics baseboard — understanding how inputs, outputs, power, signals and loads are actually connected.
