Course detail

Production Machines and Industrial Robots

FSI-JVR-KAcad. year: 2009/2010

Students are made familiar with the types of production machines for mechanical and electrical engineering production companies. These are especially machining machines (conventional, and numeric controlled machines, single purpose machines), design, properties, characteristics, technical dates and technological facilities. Students will be cognizant of the basic types of industrial robots and manipulators (hereinafter referred to as IRaM), the fundamentals of electromechanical structures (machineware) and the integration to the robotized systems (RTP - robotized technological place or AMS - automated manufacturing system). Also dealt are the basic types of manufacturing machines appropriate for connection to higher manufacturing systems (FMS - flexible manufacturing system or AL - automatic line).

Learning outcomes of the course unit

The course provides students with the latest information about structures, projections and the use of production machines and industrial robots in practice. They will be cognizant of modern production systems area (machineware, HW and SW)

Prerequisites

Basic knowledge of designing of production machines and robots

Co-requisites

Not applicable.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

Teaching methods depend on the type of course unit as specified in the article 7 of BUT Rules for Studies and Examinations.

Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes

The examination has a written and an oral part. The examination tests student’s knowledge and the ability of practical application. Both parts of the examination are reflected in the final classification.

Aims

The aim of the course is to make students familiar with the usage of the most suitable type of production machines and industrial robots, as well as with practical usage of an appropriate type of IRaM and flexible manufacturing systems components for projects of robotized workplaces.

Specification of controlled education, way of implementation and compensation for absences

Attendance at seminars is obligatory. Seminars contain both the theoretical lessons in the class and the practical lessons in the laboratory of IPMSaR. Course-unit credit is awarded on condition of having worked out and submitted an individually assigned semester project.

Recommended optional programme components
