Lectures

Goal

The objective of this course is that students: acquire knowledge of the application, design and implementation of contemporary manufacturing automation; master the skills of practical problem-solving in the domain of automation by using computer, information, control, manufacturing, and other technologies and appropriate scientific methods.

Outcome

After successfully completing this course, the students should be capable to: - Analyze social, economic, production and other effects of automation; - Integrate knowledge in related subjects and implement them in automation; - Analyze and synthesize combinational automata; - Synthesize sequential automata; - Carry out pneumatic and electro-pneumatic realization of combinational and sequential automata; - Program programmable logic controllers according to IEC 61131-3.

Theoretical teaching

1. Introduction to manufacturing automation: definition of automation; types of production systems automation; fixed, flexible, programmable and intelligent automation; advantages and disadvantages of automation 2. Number systems: additive number systems; positional number systems (decimal, binary, octal, hexadecimal); conversion of numbers between positional number systems 3. Codes and coding: binary coded decimal; conversion between binary coded decimal and binary number system; Gray code; alphanumerical codes 4. Switching algebra: axioms of Boolean algebra; elementary operations of switching algebra; theorems of switching algebra; logic functions; canonical forms of logic functions (sum of minterms and product of maxterms); minimization of logic functions 5. Technologies and components for realization of control tasks in manufacturing automation: the structure of control system - subsystems for information acquisition, information processing and command execution; pneumatic and electro-pneumatic realization; sensors, actuators, logical and memory elements. 6. Combinational and sequential automata: Definition, models, synthesis and analysis; Pneumatic and electro-pneumatic realization 7. Programmable controllers: functions, hardware, software, input-output modules; programming languages and programming according to IEC 61131-3. 8. Examples of manufacturing automation

Practical teaching

1. Auditory exercises: examples in automation design, with control system analysis and synthesis, programmable controllers programming, and control scheme design. 2. Laboratory exercises: PL1 Control of pneumatic actuators PL2 Analysis of combinational automaton (pneumatic realization) PL3 Synthesis of combinational automaton (pneumatic realization) PL4 Synthesis of combinational automaton (electro-pneumatic realization using PLC) PL5 Synthesis of sequential automaton (electro-pneumatic realization using PLC) PL6 Synthesis of sequential automaton (electro-pneumatic realization using PLC- timers and counters) PL7 Synthesis of sequential automaton (electro-pneumatic realization using PLC and programming in sequential function charts) 3.
