Improved Overall Systems Training

Automation Studio™ true simulation and animation helps instructors to demonstrate and validate concepts, from basic to complex, faster than any other traditional method. With an audience of greatly varying competence, fields of expertise and technical levels, the benefits of being able to display exact machine behavior in action with animation and complete freedom to interact with controls and adjustable parameters constitutes a tremendous asset for better machine operation understanding and improved troubleshooting skills.

Create Dynamic, Animated,
and Flexible Training Material

By using low-cost AVI, screen capture and production software, you can create machine specific training materials more cost-effectively than with any multimedia package. Automation Studio™ allows the creation of comprehensive and high-level training material. You can generate countless operation sequences to illustrate equipment behavior, and help trainees more quickly and easily understand machine operation and troubleshooting procedures.

Perform Webcast Training
and Save on Travel Expenses

It is also possible to cut down on operating costs by using Automation Studio™ to perform remote training sessions. Using Automation Studio™ with any commercially available webcasting methods brings a new dimension to technical discussions. Together, they allow better explanations throughout your organization of how specific systems work; and nobody even has to leave the comfort of his/her office.

Reduce Downtime and Troubleshooting Time

Automation Studio™ simulation capabilities allow maintenance and training personnel to quickly and easily perform "what if" scenarios to troubleshoot potential problem areas. Equipment failure and break-downs can be more easily detected and repaired. Thus, using Automation Studio™ at the maintenance and service level can help you significantly reduce troubleshooting time and downtime.

Remote Diagnostics Assistance for Increased Customer Satisfaction

Using webcasting techniques, Automation Studio™ makes it possible to assist machine specialists, who are remotely located, troubleshooting faulty equipment. With the constant evolution of on-board electronics, the developers of Famic Technologies are working on remote data acquisition and simulation comparison techniques to help guide technicians in fault finding.

CANbus System Training Platform

With the addition of the CANbus/OPC link, Automation Studio™ becomes a complete virtual machine controlled by an external controller. This is a cost-effective, useful and safe way to help train personnel on control systems without relying on expensive equipment.

Automation Studio™ Runtime (ASR) for Broader Use and Increased Security

With ASR, organizations can put virtual systems in the hands of more people involved in training, maintenance or service. With this Simulation-Only version of Automation Studio™, users can open projects, run simulation, and manipulate components with the same ease of use as with the complete version. Furthermore, Automation Studio™ Runtime provides all of the powerful features found in Automation Studio™ without giving access to sensitive engineering information.
