Course detail

The Special Design of Industial Robots and Manipulators

FSI-9SKRAcad. year: 2024/2025

The subject is aimed at PhD. students who have the interest in the study of Parallel Kinematical Structures (PKS) of IRaM in detail. The attention is also devoted to machine tools of unconventional constructions. There will be analysed the structure of PKS, their characteristics, advantages, disadvantages and applications in machinary.

Entry knowledge

Candidates should be familiarized with the problems of the construction of IRaM (Industrial Robots and Manipulators) and MT (Machine Tools) at the engineering level.

Rules for evaluation and completion of the course

There is necessary to work out an assigned semestral project and defend the work in an oral examination.


It is recommended both the attendance at lectures and the self-study of available literature and internet sources, as well as consultations with the lecturer. Individual elaboration of semestral work. Change in covid containments reserved.


Aims

The aim of subject is to inform about new knowledges about modern parallel kinematics structures of industrial robots or machining machines am machines area.


The acquired knowledge and the skills could be drawn on for the work of the project engineer, the design engineer or the scientific-research worker from the branch of the structure of IRaM or the construction of Machine Tools (MT).
