Portable Smart Manufacturing Learning System
Amatrol’s Smart Manufacturing Learning System (990-SM10) was developed in partnership with CESMII - The Smart Manufacturing Institute, for hands-on learning in Smart Manufacturing and Industry 4.0 technologies. Combining hardware, industrial software products and solutions, and in-depth exercises, this system has been designed to educate and equip learners at all levels of expertise, from the novice ‘Citizen OT-IT Technologist’ to the expert architect and implementer of smart manufacturing systems.
This system covers smart manufacturing principles and technologies, starting with the most basic and continuing to the advanced. The 990-SM10 uses wired and wireless sensors, OPC Unified Architecture (OPC UA) and MQ Telemetry Transport (MQTT), a PLC, several types of edge gateways, and a variety of on-premise and cloud-based infrastructure and applications that facilitate both OT and IT-centric use case development and training.
The 990-SM10 is an ideal training system for equipping individuals at all skill levels with the practical, hands-on skills they need to begin or advance their Smart Manufacturing journey, teaching them how to envision, develop, and sustain practical solutions using real-world, best-in-class smart manufacturing capabilities and methodologies.

Teach Smart Manufacturing Skills
Develop Real-World Smart Factory Skills
The Smart Manufacturing Learning System (990-SM10) includes industrial components common in typical manufacturing operations that users can access to develop hands-on skills. It also features several additional sensors – including the Wireless Temperature/Humidity Sensor and the Current Transformer Sensor – that can monitor external, real-world components and systems. This system also allows for user-supplied remote sensors for additional measurements and curriculum customization.
Real-World Industry Software for Monitoring Systems
Amatrol partnered with CESMII and their member organizations, including industrial suppliers Rockwell Automation, Phoenix Contact, and 5G Technologies USA Ltd., to implement their monitoring, connectivity, and control solutions into this one-of-a-kind system. Users will practice with both the PLC and BorgConnect Hub and Node for different options to collect and monitor data for process control, machine monitoring, and energy optimization purposes using practical solutions for any manufacturer. Users will also have the option to use PLC programming software for developing I/O control skills and the CESMII Smart Manufacturing Innovation Platform (SMIP) to practice information modeling, platform development, application configuration, and analytics skills.
Study Smart Manufacturing Concepts on a Portable, Ergonomic, Easy-to-Use System
The Smart Manufacturing Learning System features a stainless-steel panel design in a rugged, flameproof, and lockable ABS plastic case. It comes with roller wheels, a handle, and a pouch to store loose items, such as cables, components, and documentation – making it is easy to transport and store.
The Smart Manufacturing Institute Mission
Radically accelerate the development and adoption of advanced sensors, controls, platforms, and models, enabling Smart Manufacturing (SM) to become the sustainable driving engine that delivers real-time business improvements in U.S. manufacturing.

Manufacturing & Engineering
Our learning programs develop job-ready skills that have been proven time and again. Take a look at how we can help you be successful!
Colleges are challenged to offer courses whenever students are available – and frequently, wherever they are available. Students want courses that are available on campus as well as from home while also providing strong hands-on skills for the technology demands facing them. Meeting these demands is no small task.
Amatrol has learning programs that allow colleges to excel in this demanding environment. We offer a full range of learning systems, both in a traditional equipment lab setting as well as in a virtual lab, that meet and exceed students' expectations.
