Choose EDIBON teaching equipment by syllabus, experiments and student groups. Compare base units, modules, software, utilities and training in one equipment schedule.
Scientific & laboratory RFQ checklist (TXT)
Engineering teaching equipment should be selected from the course experiments, student access and facilities the programme needs. EDIBON manufactures educational equipment across engineering disciplines; Vvon can review the relevant configurations for a laboratory enquiry in Bangladesh.
Start with the required experiments and existing equipment. A single unit, compatible modules or a staged laboratory package may address the brief. Confirm base units, instruments, computers, software and accessories for each exact model in the EDIBON catalogue.
The experiments, simultaneous student groups, instrumentation, control and data-acquisition options, software, utilities and training determine the scope. Request the same equipment and accessory schedule from each bidder; a trainer-only price may exclude the components needed to run the practical class.
No. Equipment procurement supports the teaching plan but does not confer accreditation. Use the curriculum and accreditation evidence guide for that separate task. For a quotation, send the syllabus, experiments, group sizes and available room.
| Schedule item | What the quotation should identify |
|---|---|
| Experiment or learning activity | Course, practical exercise and output students must demonstrate. |
| Equipment | Exact unit references, quantities and any shared base units or instruments. |
| Student access | Group size, simultaneous stations and rotation time. |
| Control and data | Manual or computer-controlled configuration, software, computers and licences where required. |
| Room and handover | Utilities, access, installation, faculty training and an agreed experiment demonstration. |
An accreditation evidence file is a separate deliverable from the equipment list. Use the EDIBON curriculum and accreditation guide for that discussion and the student-station planning guide to test the timetable. Start model selection in the EDIBON product catalogue.
EDIBON’s laboratory directory organises equipment by study area and academic programme. Compare individual units, modular systems and laboratory packages against the syllabus. Sensors, documentation, accessories and software vary by configuration and must be identified in the offer.

| Petroleum & Oil & Gas | Select relevant fluid, process or energy teaching units after review of the required petroleum exercises | Petroleum engineering programs |
| Agriculture, Food & Biotechnology | Irrigation, agro-mechanics, food processing, biotechnology benches | Agricultural, food technology, biotech programs |
Request the exact documentation package for each offered unit, including theory, experiment instructions and available instructor material. The department remains responsible for adapting exercises, safety procedures and assessment to its curriculum. Manual units and computer-controlled units have different interfaces; SCADA is not included with every EDIBON product.
Determine the number of stations from the experiment list, group size, session length and required concurrency. A department may need one specialist instrument, duplicated practical stations or a phased set; an 8–15-unit rule does not apply to every discipline.
Renewable-energy trainers can support PV, wind, fuel-cell and grid-integration exercises. Choose the relevant experiments and safe operating arrangement first, then verify sensors, source simulators, loads and software for the offered unit.
| EDIBON unit | What it demonstrates | Relevant courses |
|---|---|---|
| EESFB: Photovoltaic Solar Energy Unit | I-V and P-V curves, open circuit voltage, short circuit current and the effect of temperature, on a unit with its own solar simulator so the work runs indoors | Renewable Energy, Power Electronics |
| AEL-PHVG: Photovoltaic Application with Connection to Grid | Grid connected PV through a user programmable three phase inverter, energy management conditions and dynamic power control | Renewable Energy, Power Systems |
| WETFC: Computer Controlled Wind Energy Turbine Fundamentals Unit | Power coefficient against tip speed ratio, blade pitch angle and yaw angle, on a gearless variable speed turbine | Renewable Energy, Electrical Machines |
| EC5B: PEM Fuel Cell Unit | Polarisation curves, power density and efficiency, and how each changes with reagent consumption | Energy Systems, Electrochemistry |
| EDILAB-ELEC1: Electrolyzer (3 Nl/h) | Hydrogen production from deionised water, so fuel cell practicals do not depend on a gas cylinder | Energy Systems, Chemical Engineering |
For communications and IoT teaching, specify the protocols, signal ranges, hardware access and software tools required by the course. Do not assume an educational SDR or IoT platform reproduces a commercial 5G deployment. Match the proposed modules with current product documents and the department’s practical exercises.
Bangladesh's aeronautical engineering programs, at MIST, BUET and the Bangladesh Air Force Academy, require laboratory infrastructure that goes beyond what general engineering equipment suppliers can provide. What we can quote from the EDIBON range is the aerodynamics half of it, and it is deeper than most people expect: subsonic open circuit tunnels from 50 by 250 mm up to 1200 by 1200 mm, a closed circuit 2000 by 2000 mm tunnel for larger models, computer controlled supersonic tunnels with schlieren visualisation of shock waves, a smoke tunnel for two dimensional flow visualisation, an aerodynamic testing bench, and a flight demonstration tunnel in which a model aircraft free in pitch, roll and yaw responds to its own control surfaces. Radar is covered by one working teaching unit rather than a simulator suite, and the whole aerodynamics group is listed in the scientific and laboratory catalogue. Avionics, flight instrument panels, navigation and autopilot trainers and aircraft maintenance rigs are not in the range we carry, and we would rather say so while the specification is being written than at the tender opening.
| EDIBON aeronautical system | What it covers | Program application |
|---|---|---|
| TA300/300C: Computer Controlled Aerodynamic Tunnel, 300X300 mm | Subsonic flow over aircraft and body models, with a 9.5 to 1 contraction and a computer controlled fan | Aeronautical and mechanical engineering |
| TAS25/100C: Computer Controlled Supersonic Wind Tunnel | Shock waves and expansion fans through a schlieren system, with interchangeable nozzle blocks setting the test section Mach number | Aeronautical engineering, gas dynamics |
| TADV225/450: Aerodynamic Tunnel Flight Demonstration Unit | The forces acting on an aircraft in flight, using a model free in pitch, roll and yaw | Aeronautical engineering, flight mechanics |
| TAVF180/100: Aerodynamic Tunnel for Flow Visualization | Streamlines, separation and wake formation over aerofoils and cylinders, using smoke filaments | Aeronautical engineering, fluid mechanics |
| ERA: Radar Unit | Range and bearing of static and moving objects, operating modes, sensitivity control, clutter suppression and guard zones | Aeronautical engineering, air traffic control, telecommunications |
For automation, identify the controller platform, I/O, motion or pneumatic components, programming tools and safety functions students need to study. Confirm the exact PLC model, software licence and training exercises in the quotation; laboratory experience supports skills development but does not guarantee immediate competence on every factory system.
Civil, chemical, environmental, food and agricultural teaching may draw on several EDIBON families. Begin with the experiments and verify each proposed unit in the current catalogue. Specialist petroleum, drilling, avionics or maintenance requirements need an explicit model and configuration review rather than an assumed complete discipline package.
BAETE accredits engineering programmes under its current criteria. The Washington Accord is an agreement between accreditation bodies; an individual university does not obtain provisional membership by buying equipment. Manuals can support teaching preparation, but the programme must demonstrate its own outcomes, assessment and improvement.
Vvon can discuss EDIBON equipment selection, site requirements and the proposed installation and training scope. Request current manufacturer documentation and applicable representation evidence for the offered products. Any site visit, consultation, service or other commercial commitment should be confirmed in the quotation.
If you are planning a new engineering laboratory or upgrading existing facilities, we would welcome the opportunity to present EDIBON's full range and discuss your specific curriculum requirements. Request a laboratory consultation →
