User-friendly pneumatic circuit simulation as part of a structured teaching package.
Interactive explanations present the basics of pneumatics: how compressed air is produced - how cylinders provide linear force and movement - and how valves and other components are used to control them.
Animated cut-away diagrams show how the components work.
Circuit simulation is simple and user-friendly:
drag and drop components; pipe up the circuit; switch on the air supply. Then operate the valves to see what happens.
All the commonly-used pneumatics circuits can be simulated.
Airways software covers all aspects of pneumatics required for school examinations in England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
It also makes an ideal way to introduce pneumatics in KS3 and S1/S2.
Includes animated explanations of circuit diagram symbols, and an area where students can create simple circuit diagrams.
The emphasis throughout is on how pneumatics technology is used, particularly in manufacturing industry.
All aspects of the software are supported by worksheets which can be completed and marked on-screen, or printed for use as conventional worksheets.
