Course detail

Electrical Engineering of Production Machines II

FSI-GE2Acad. year: 2025/2026

The course extends students knowledge of problems of electric equipment production machinery and equipment. In particular, it concerns the design of this equipment with regard to the required characteristics and safety, the dynamic properties of the propulsion systems, the possibilities of their modeling.

Language of instruction

Czech

Number of ECTS credits

5

Mode of study

Not applicable.

Entry knowledge

Differential equations, Laplace transformation, fundamentals of mechanics dynamics, fundamentals of theory of electric machines and drives, schematics and functions of electric energy converters, fundamentals of electrotechnical equipment of production machines.

Rules for evaluation and completion of the course

Conditions for granting the credit:
1. Passing all exercises (100% attendance),
2. Processing the assigned project.
Exam: The exam is combined, has a written and oral part and examines the complex knowledge of the subject.
Controlled lessons are exercises. Exercises are obligatory, while attendance at the exercises is controlled. The student has to pass the missed lesson with another group if possible, or in exceptional cases, by completing homework on the topic. The level of this work is evaluated by the teacher.

Aims

The aim of the course is to broaden students' knowledge in the field of electrical weapons production machines and systems in the areas of design practice, the dynamic behavior of drives and drive systems modeling. The goal of the subject is to achieve higher level of knowledge so that the students are able to apply the above mentioned devices and their components in their profession and to orient themselves in the wide market offer of individual manufacturers.
The acquired knowledge and skills enable students to master the engineering design of the electrotechnical equipment of production machines and equipment at high professional level and to understand the internal processes taking place in these facilities.
