Global challenges and industrial competitiveness are having an impact on the training and continuous education of skilled workers and students. In addition to theoretical principles, practical knowledge is also in demand, particularly with regard to digitized and networked manufacturing processes. Virtual learning factories based on 3D simulation platforms offer interesting possibilities when it comes to Industry 4.0: The Mechatronic Simulation Wall developed by MHJ Software GmbH & Co. KG is a mirror image of real mechatronic systems and can include up to four different stations, e.g. magazine, processing, quality assurance and sorting. This type of configuration makes it possible to program each station individually, or run the entire system, which opens up a wide range of learning scenarios with varying degrees of complexity.
