| Aim: To learn the participants to understand the nature of mechatronic products and systems and the concepts and principles which make them attractive compared with mechanical solutions, to understand and to work with synthesis and design of mechatronic products and systems, including intelligent control, integration and interaction of mechanics, electronics and soft ware. Focus will be on mechatronic design approach using principles of mechatronics, product development for application areas, see belove. |
Contents: The course cover following aspects of mechatronics: Life cycles of products, aspects which are important for development of a mechatronic product and mechatronic system. What is mechatronics? Definition of mechatronics and trends. Application areas for mechatronic products and systems, funtions and components, properties and international norm requirements (EU, ISO, US etc.). Physical principles, intelligent control, sensors and measurements, power supplies etc. Analysis and modelling of typical mechatronic products and systems. Evaluation and verification of functionallity based on experiments and measurements.
Principles for lay out. Dynamics, temperature and thermodynamic aspects. Man-machine interface and manufacturing aspects. Principles for design of racks, print, interface etc.
The exercises include practical task in the workshop laboratory.
It is possible to carry out a project on selected subjects within mechatronics, see course 72401 Engineering Design Projects. |
