The skills gap is real.
The path in
shouldn't be.

Too many learners reach the end of a course and still haven't touched a real PLC. Too many employers spend time and money sending engineers off-site. Too many colleges make do with equipment that's outdated before students even graduate.

The RE-1 exists to change that. Real hardware. Real wiring. Real fault-finding — in a format that works on any desk, in any training room, on day one.

Training equipment that feels decades out of date
No hands-on time until you're already on site
Bulky rigs that stay in one room and never move
Simulators that don't teach you how real hardware behaves
Upskilling that means sending your team off-site for days
Panels that intimidate before you've even started
The Platform

Industry-Standard Hardware.
From Day One.

No cut-down alternatives. No simulators pretending to be the real thing. The RE-1 is built around the same Siemens platform used on shop floors across the UK and Europe.

Primary Controller
Siemens S7-1200

The CPU 1212C — one of the most widely deployed compact PLCs in industry. Learn TIA Portal programming on hardware that employers already use and trust.

Human Machine Interface
Siemens KTP700

A 7" industrial touchscreen HMI. Build real operator screens, understand process visualisation, and learn how machines communicate with the people running them.

Inputs & Outputs
Real I/O. Real Interaction.

22mm industrial pushbuttons, pilot indicators, rotary potentiometers, a 3-position selector switch, and a mushroom-head E-stop — the components you'll find on every real control panel.

Format & Safety
Designed to Deploy.

24VDC external supply — no mains voltage in the unit. Compact enough for any desk or training bench. Robust enough for years of daily educational use.

Custom Builds Available

The RE-1 platform is also available as a custom build. If your site, college, or training programme runs a different PLC manufacturer — Allen-Bradley, Mitsubishi, Omron, Schneider, or others — we can configure the kit to match your existing hardware. Get in touch to discuss your requirements.

01
Real Hardware

Genuine Siemens industrial components — the same platform used on factory floors across the UK. Not a stripped-down substitute.

02
Real Skills

Wiring, programming, HMI operation, fault-finding. Practical repetition that builds real confidence — not just theory on a slide deck.

03
Real Product

Premium enclosure. Clean interaction face. An industrial training tool that commands respect in any workshop, classroom, or employer's training room.

Who It's For

Built for Learners.
Trusted by Pros.
