Christiani Industry Models

Christiani industry models are built from fischertechnik components to represent different processes and applications. All models are stabilised by aluminium profiles and use industry-standard industrial sensors. The open system opens up the possibility of connecting different controllers with 24 volts and sufficient inputs and outputs. Christiani industry models are delivered ready-wired and on a robust pedestal.

What can you do with the Christiani Industry Models?

Christiani industry models are used to teach trainees how to program and commission systems. From simple programming to control loops, from the basics to highly complex processes, a wide range of tasks can be realised with the practice-oriented models – completely risk-free:

  • Selection of the appropriate control system
  • Wiring the control system to the model
  • Programming and testing
  • Commissioning of the system/application
  • Abstract process thinking
  • Troubleshooting

Advantages of the Christiani Industry Models:

  • Robust
  • Versatile
  • Optimum price-performance ratio
  • Close to industry
  • Directly applicable
  • Hands on training without risk of expensive production downtime
  • Compatible with all 24 V control systems
  • Wide range of models available
  • Entire production lines can be built with combination models

Stand-Alone Models

As the name indicates, the stand-alone industry models from Christiani are closed processes. Here you can choose between ready-to-use bundles with model, control system and the first tasks. Or larger models, such as versions of different process lines, where the planning and commissioning is fully in the hands of the trainees after the control request. Even though the main requirement here is programming, the models must be appropriately wired in advance. They are the perfect tool for learning how to commission industrial processes. In doing so, it is impossible to cause cost-intensive downtimes.

Combinable Model

The combinable models of the Christiani industry models can, as the name indicates, be combined. They represent individual modules that can be combined to form a complex production process. In this way, processes can be simulated as they actually take place in production.

All combinable models are built so that their process control always takes place at the same distance from the base plates. Thus, they can be placed directly next to each other and a transfer of the workpieces is ensured. With the combinable models, the focus is on programming and commissioning. Planning the right control system and the corresponding wiring is also in the hands of the trainees.
