What is special about the SkillsConveyor?
Learning with the Skills Conveyor
The world is in a permanent process of change.
To actively participate in this process, we need innovative, creative companies. However, introducing new technologies is only half the battle. We need qualified specialists who know how to use them effectively. A well-trained workforce is the decisive quality factor. Use our Skills Conveyor with the appropriate learning paths for the training and further education of skilled workers and thus secure the basis for innovation and success.
The learning contents are:
- Wiring, assembly and disassembly of mechanical systems
- Commissioning and use of different sensors and actuators
- Connection programmable control (additional equipment necessary)
- Basics of AC technology
- Sequence description with GRAFCET
- Programming with small controller / SPS
"Our goal was to develop a holistic basic learning system for technical training - with a special focus on the synchronous modularity of hardware and courseware. This approach makes it possible to flexibly and individually build up learning content from individual components to the entire system - and thus create different entry scenarios for learners."

The right learning path
For a sound and up-to-date qualification in the fundamentals of mechanics and automation, we recommend a combination of hands-on training with learning systems, simulation software and adequate e-learning courses.
Our comprehensive qualification program consisting of hardware, software and courseware modules is based on a comprehensive analysis of current and future competence requirements in various occupational and training profiles.
The mechatronics qualification plan includes 4 stages plus additional qualification topics (ZQ). The SkillsConveyor is the hardware basis for the development of competencies in stage 2, the area "Fundamentals of Automation". Due to the modular structure of the learning system and the learning content, learners benefit from a continuous learning process.
On our digital learning portal Festo LX, all topics of the learning path are prepared in different, complementary formats. With e-learning courses, videos, e-books and many other options, the right learning path can be created and followed for each student.
