Passive Safety Devices For Motorcars simulator allows the study, the testing and the troubleshooting on the devices which have been developed for the purpose of increasing the safety of driver and passengers inside motorcars. The simulator considers all those systems that allow to reduce the consequences of accidents; in particular, the following devices are analyzed:
Air bag (driver bag, passenger bag, side bag, window bag)
Passive Safety Devices For Motorcars simulator allows the Multi-function valve in the fuel tank
It is possible to simulate the behaviour of components and circuits, on the basis of operating conditions that students and teachers can control directly on the panel or through the personal computer. The different not acting safety devices are reproduced on the panel through a synoptic diagram that allows a complete analysis of the components and, in case, of the relevant electrical/electronic control circuit. The latter keeps constantly under control the simulation, by visualizing its behaviour by means of signals and analog and digital meters; in this way the student, through suitable measurements and tests, can proceed to the fault finding activity.
The training system presented here represents a fully functional CIM cell (CIM = Computer Integrated Manufacturing). An overhead robot on a linear drive supplies two CNC machines with raw parts taken from a magazine. The machined dimensions of the finished workpieces are checked in an inspection jig before the items are placed in a finished parts store. The system allows an automated manufacturing process to be created. The demonstrates the basic processes of handling (robots), manufacturing (CNC machining), and control (PLC). Defined planning and control data is used to control various machines. The manufacturing cell is equipped with all necessary sensors and control devices. The control and programming software for the CNC machines, the robot, the linear drive and the software for the PLC (monitoring and control) are installed on two PCs. The relevant data is stored in a software program, and is processed by the control units of the individual machines. A PLC system monitors and controls the process.

A bench-mounted framework incorporates facilities for six tests to be carried out simultaneously. The glass flocculating vessels stand on a translucent base which is illuminated from below. Each flocculating vessel incorporates a stirrer paddle driven by a variable speed drive. The paddle assemblies are easily withdrawn for removal and cleaning of the test vessels.
The tests serve to indicate the optimum chemical dosages for removal of turbidity and color, including such parameters as pH adjustment, and the supplemental use of activated carbon. Jar tests, furthermore, yield a wealth of qualitative information on the rate of agglomeration as a function of energy input (paddle speed), the settle ability of the floc formed, the clarity of the supernatant water (which might be related to the subsequent length of filter run).
Analysis of a water or waste preparatory to the design of a treatment sequence often involves coagulation and flocculation tests, 'Jar tests', in the laboratory.
Jar tests are routinely used for the control of plan operations and are performed by treatment plant operators.
Coagulation and flocculation tests may be used, in conjunction with other tests, to study basic processes including, for example, the kinetics of reaction and the removal of trace constituents from aqueous solution.
A digital timer can be set to count down from 1 to 99 minutes. After count down the paddles stop and an alert sounds.
The paddle shafts are made of stainless steel to resist corrosion. Paddle speed is accurately maintained by electronic feedback control. A digital display clearly indicates the speed which is fully variable. Alternatively, the use of two adjustable presets allows repetition of pre-selected speeds.
