| Aim: To give the student understanding and knowledge about terms and basic principles for the construction of numerical controllers for machine systems, e.g. logic systems (PLC's), CNC-systems and robot systems. Furthermore the course aims at conveying insight and understanding of the concept of CIM (Computer Integrated Manufacturing) by presenting the theoretical entities of the course in the wholeness and perspective of computer assisted integration. In this way leading to a structural understanding of the rapidly growing industrial automation. |
Contents: Historical development of numerical control. Indtroduction to CIM (Computer Integrated Manufacturing). Logic-based control. Number systems and representation.
