ConceptA quality educational process in the technical domain can be provided only by using modern didacticresources, combined into a single framework where the student learns practical skills with direct applicationin the industrial environment. For this purpose a structure for workspace framing and equipment placement issuggested.The laboratory is intended to allow carrying out practical experiments on different types of equipment similar tothose used in industry, embedded in didactic structures whose size is suitable for laboratory study. The imagesshow a suggested layout draft for the furniture and the laboratory equipment.The didactic structures are accompanied by notebooks for experiments, practical results and answers forsolving the exercises.The laboratory provides the support needed for theoretical presentations (basic principles of electronic andautomation equipment).Laboratory structure- Workstations designed specificallyfor the activities performed in thelaboratory- Equipment for practicalexperiments- Support for the equipment: Theoretical support Notebooks for experiments Answers for solving Dedicated software packageaccompanied by license5

WorkstationThe workstation is specifically designed to provideproper performing of laboratory activities. It providesextensive work space, didactic equipment integrationand fast access to appliances such as power supply(400 V AC, 230 V AC, 24 V DC), signal generator,communication network (Ethernet).Size: 2000 x 800 mm (width x height)6
