Learners examine an electric motor control circuit that uses a motor starter module. This activity has audio content.

The learner will understand the operation of motor control circuits used to start and stop three-phase motors.

In this animated object, learners examine automated manufacturing systems classified as motion control, batch process control, and continuous process control.

Learners examine the operation of five pneumatic animated circuits that use directional control valves, pilot lines, check valves, needle valves, and cylinders.

In this learning activity you'll recognize several patterns on an Xbar and R control chart. These non-random patterns are indications that the process is not in a state of statistical control.

Learners follow a step-by-step explanation of how to test fuses and circuit interrupting devices.

In this animated object, learners examine a closed-loop feedback system that uses digital circuits to control the position of a gear rack.

In this screencast, Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing: The Feature Control Frame, learners examine geometric characteristic symbols, tolerances, datum feature symbols, and other control frame information.

Learners study the operation of a ladder circuit in which coils on one rung control contacts in other rungs.

Learners examine the speed control circuits in a DC variable speed drive that cause the RPM of a motor to vary. This activity has audio content.

Learners examine an animated motion-controlled robotic arm and observe the operation of a PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) control that makes movements quickly without overshooting or having a steady-state error. This activity has audio content.

In this learning activity you'll discover the features of a Puma Daewoo O-T CNC Lathe Control panel.

In this animated object, learners examine the operation of a feed-forward control system and its advantages over a closed-loop system. A brief quiz completes the activity.

Learners examine the operation of the on-off control mode using a home heating example. A short quiz completes the activity.

In this animated object, learners examine the ratio control method used in automation when two or more ingredients are mixed. A brief quiz completes the activity.

Learners examine the operation of various circuits that are internal to the capacitive proximity sensor.

In this animated activity, learners examine the operation of hydraulic directional control valves and the internal components that divert the fluid.

In this animated object, learners examine an analog closed-loop feedback system that uses potentiometers to control the position of a gear rack.

Learners examine the operation of a proportional control amplifier and the two ways that it is programmed using proportional gain or proportional band. A brief quiz completes the activity.

In this animated object, learners examine the operation of two-way, three-way, and four-way directional control valves used in pneumatic systems.
