Abstract:

Mechatronics engineering study programs were established at German universities approximately 15 years ago. Today at about 50 universities of applied sciences mechatronics education is offered in undergraduate and graduate courses as full programs, majors or minors. In 2005 the MECHATRONIK e.V. – the mechatronics association in Germany - published a recommendation for undergraduate and graduate education in mechatronics, which defines minimum requirements to mechatronics study programs. In this paper the mechatronics study programs of a number of German universities are analyzed and compared.

Abstract:

Mechatronics is a multidisciplinary that includes a combination of mechanics, electronics, control systems, and computer science. The main objective of mechatronics learning is to establish a comprehensive mindset in the development of mechatronic systems. Project Based Learning (PBL) is an appropriate method for use in the learning process of mechatronic. The use of PBL by following the V model in system development process is expected to encourage the achievement of the main goal of learning in mechatronics lab. Demonstration of knowledge during the practical work done by drafting product development procedures documents, presentations, and project demo. The test result of mechatronics lab course based on PBL in Electronics Engineering Bandung State Polytechnic led to the conclusion that the model is acceptable and desirable to be passed with a few improvements. In addition, learners also feel there is a new challenge in following the PBL-based practicum.

Abstract:

This paper presents a new mechatronics laboratory for students in the 5th semester of the mechatronics degree course at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology. It is the aim of this teaching event to sharpen the appreciation of synergy effects in the development of mechatronic systems among the students. Despite of the great freedom in the development process, a concept has been evolved, which causes low running costs due to the combination of a model kit with rapid prototyping methods. A first pilot study of the laboratory starting in the winter term 2014 has shown that the students approach the task despite of the high level of difficulty with fun and dedication, especially because of the wide solution space which was unknown for them from previous lectures.

Abstract:

Mechatronics is a term created to represent the total technology of mechanisms and electronics. Mechanical engineering dealing with mechanisms has a very long history. Its recent organic combination with electronics has certainly brought about a striking advance in the functions and performance of machines. This striking advance lay in the background of the creation of the new term “mechatronics”. The initiation of mechatronics was no doubt due to the advent of NC machine tools. NC machine tools were accomplished by fusing mechanisms with servo unit drives and computer techniques. The technique using them was somewhat innovative in that servo units were driven by digital computer signals. Mechatronics is considered as essential to develop peripheral machines for computers such as plotters, printers and magnetic memories, and as an application to wire bonding machines and X-ray exposing machines in semiconductor manufacturing processes. For such machines, increasingly higher speed and accuracy are likely to be required, and engineering developments are actively underway accordingly. This special issue was planned to present the current status and recent trends of mechatronic research arid development in Japan. The contents can be classified into three categories. First, bearings and actuators as basic mechatronic elements are featured. For bearings, trends of research and development on magnetic types which permit ultrahigh-speed rotation and operation in vacuum in particular were chosen. For actuators, recent examples of research and development on ultrasonic motors, linear motors and piezoelectric actuators were selected. Second, this issue presents examples of development in the area of X-ray steppers, memory medium handling systems, and polygonal scanners. These are frontier mechatronic systems and the descriptions will be of some help in recognizing future problems in development. Finally, some studies from the point of view of force-torque control were selected. While conventional mechatronic control studies are primarily concerned with position and speed control, force-torque control is expected to become an important trend. I hope that this special issue will be helpful in recognizing the current situation and future trends of mechatronics, and contribute to future developments in this area.

Abstract:

This study develops teaching materials for mechatronics in higher education. Industrial societies require numerous mechatronics engineers, and most technical universities provide mechatronics exercises in their curriculums. However, it is difficult for teachers and students to modify and improve the mechatronic teaching materials because the provided materials are finished products. Therefore, a simple and inexpensive educational system is developed to overcome the disadvantages of the finished products. In this paper, an experimental apparatus is proposed for mechatronics education, and a practical example is presented that involves learning control methods, sensors, actuators, and mechanics.

Abstract:

Recently, mechatronics as a self-contained discipline has undoubtedly shaped the development of technical systems. Mechatronics stands for the close interaction of mechanics, electronics, control engineering and software engineering. Due to the advancement of information and communication technologies, the functionality of mechatronic systems will go far beyond current standards. The increasing complexity requires a consistent comprehension of the tasks between all the developers involved. Especially during the early design phases, the communication and cooperation between the engineers is necessary to design a first overall system model. In addition, reusing of once successfully implemented solution knowledge is becoming increasingly important related to the overall context of the triangle of tension formed by time, cost and quality. In our work, we will present an approach for the identification of reusable controller strategies for the system design of advanced mechatronic systems.

Abstract:

The paper presents the results of a study on using mechatronics to enhance the performance and reliability of small electric powered screwdrivers (SEPS). A mechatronic solution to control the final tightening torque replacing the mechanical clutch of a purely electromechanical SEPS is presented. Torque estimation methods based on motor armature current measurements are integrated with an SEPS driven by a direct current motor. Strategies for controlling the final tightening torque of the screw fastening process are developed. The control strategies are tested in accordance with the ISO 5393 standard. It is shown that the mechatronic controller gives comparable performance to a SEPS with a mechanical clutch. The mechatronic solution has the advantage of reduced cost, size and complexity. The paper demonstrates the application of low-cost mechatronics in industrial power tools.

Abstract:

One of the major educators’ challenges is to teach the theoretical lessons with practical examples that can be taught in the classroom or teaching laboratories. The application of these examples will face a major problem for students in engineering: the difficulty of understanding and seeing how a mechatronic device works in everyday life. This requires the use of tools that enable the construction of different low cost prototypes to assist in student learning. Another challenge to educators is the need to motivate students during the lessons and to present models that students can make and develop on their own. Within this context this paper presents a pedagogic proposition based on the use of LEGO Mindstorms kits to teach practical lab activities in a mechatronics engineering course. The objective is to develop teaching methodologies with the use of these LEGO kits in order to motivate the students and also to promote a higher interdisciplinarity, by proposing projects that unify different disciplines. Thus, the paper is divided into three parts according to the educational experiences implemented in the course of mechatronics engineering at the Federal University of Uberlândia, Brazil. The first part presents the use of the kits in robotics discipline. The second part presents the use of the virtual kits in the Computer Aided Design discipline with zero-cost. The third part presents a multi-disciplinary project EDROM in mechatronics using LEGO kits.

Abstract:

<p>Presently, the move towards a more complex and multidisciplinary system development is increasingly important in order to understand and strengthen engineering approaches for the systems in the engineering field. This will lead to the effective and successful management of these systems. The scientific developments in computer engineering, simulation and modeling, electromechanical motion tools, power electronics, computers and informatics, micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS), microprocessors, and distributed system platforms (DSPs) have brought new challenges to industry and academia. Important aspects of designing advanced mechatronic products include modeling, simulation, analysis, virtual prototyping, and visualization. Competition on a global market includes the adaptation of new technology to produce better, cheaper, and smarter, scalable, multifunctional goods. Since the application area for developing such systems is very broad, including, for example, automotive, aeronautics, robotics or consumer products, and much more, there is also the need for flexible and adaptable methods to develop such systems. These dynamic interdisciplinary systems are called mechatronic systems, which refer to a system that possess synergistic integration of Software, electronic, and mechanical systems. To approach the complexity inherent in the aspects of the discipline, different methods and techniques of development and integration are coming from the disciplines involved. This paper will provide a brief review of the history, current developments and the future trends of mechatronics in general view.</p>

Abstract:

Abstract Present paper aims to give an insight in the field of Mechatronics, specifically its standard of education in India. We have investigated this field right from its origin. We have analyzed how it expanded as a proper discipline of engineering and in which direction the development in this field is going now and, at the same time, its status of education in India and where we are in addressing the industry’s need both in terms of quality and quantity of students. We have also assessed why Mechatronics is an essential branch considering its multi-disciplinary nature. The pount is that it holds blatant importance for time to come. Life’s most complicated problems cannot be addressed by the knowledge of only one engineering science. In today’s world we need professionals who are “good jack(s) of all trades and master(s) of one” changing the old saying. For implementing this edited saying students will need to address real-world problems, so laboratory-based learning should be even more emphasized in this branch. Consequently, we have also looked on the laboratory works that are included in these courses, considering what aspects should be covered in them. Skillsets required by students such as implementation of hardware, coding, system modeling have been also discussed. Future prospects in this discipline have also been explored. The epilogue consists in recommendations to educational institutions based on our findings.

Abstract:

Robotics is a rapidly emerging field of engineering and many institutions of higher learning in engineering now offer majors in mechatronics. This article explores the use of an intelligent vacuum robot cleaner for mechatronics education, with a focus on the problem-based learning approach. The current structures in mechatronics education can in some cases prevent students fromunderstanding the mechatronics and also the methodology in designing it. This inevitably demotivates students from traversing pathways towards postgraduate research. As shown in the results from the confidence log and questionnaires, the problem-based learning approach improve the students’ results and interest in the mechatronics. It was also found that the activities were quite appreciated by the students.

Abstract:

Purpose This paper’s aim is modeling and simulation of an advanced controller design for a novel mechatronics system that consists of a hydrostatic journal bearing with servo control. The proposed mechatronic system has more worth in tribology applications as compared to the traditional hydrostatic bearing which has limited efficiency and poor performance because of lower stiffness and load-carrying capacity. The proposed mechatronic system takes advantage of active lubrication to improve stiffness, rotor’s stability and load-carrying capacity. Design/methodology/approach The current work proposes extended state observer-based controller to control the active lubrication for hydrostatic journal bearing. The advantage of using observer is to estimate unknown state variables and lumped effects because of unmodeled dynamics, model uncertainties, and unknown external disturbances. The effectiveness of the proposed mechatronic system is checked against the traditional hydrostatic bearing. Findings Proposed mechatronics active hydrostatic journal bearing system is checked against traditional hydrostatic journal bearing. It is found that novel active hydrostatic journal bearing with servo control has good tribology performance factors such as stiffness, less rotor vibration, no wear and friction under starting conditions and high load-carrying capacity under different conditions of spindle speed, temperature, initial oil pressure and external disturbance. The result shows that proposed mechatronics system has more worth in rotary tribology applications. Originality/value The current manuscript designs a novel active hydrostatic journal bearing system with servo control. The mathematical model has advantages in term of estimating unknown state variables and lumped effects because of unmodeled dynamics, model uncertainties and unknown external disturbances. The result shows improvement in dynamic characteristics of a hydrostatic journal bearing under different dynamic conditions.

The author provides a definition of mechatronics. He explains how mechanical engineering design must change to take full advantage of developments in microelectronics and illustrates this by three structural examples. He goes on to show by further examples how mechatronics strengthens an underlying trend in engineering he calls ‘the imitation of nature’ with products which tend increasingly to resemble living creatures.

Abstract:

The “integration” in mechatronics does not concern only the technology but it implies an integration of design methods as well. There is a need for methods to model the functionality in a homogeneous way independently of implementation technology. Interdisciplinary knowledge, methodology and reference models are pointed out as factors that improve the design work of a mechatronic system, and a solution for the methodology and reference models was proposed.

Abstract:

This paper explains the concept of mechatronics and tries to resolve problem of leadership. It consists of four overlapping circles: mechanical systems, electronic systems, control systems, and computers. Their overlaps form digital control systems, control electronics, electromechanics, and mechanical computer-aided design. The question of who owns mechatronics—who will lead the development of next-generation electromechanical systems—often depends on where engineers work. Companies that make mechanical systems tend to let mechanical engineers lead; those that make electronics assign the lead to software and electrical engineers. In the future, though, the issue may be decided by how colleges train the next generation of mechanical engineers. Right now, most schools teach controls, basic electronics, and programming as part of the mechanical engineering curriculum. Universities are introducing courses with a goal to integrate courses so that electrical, control, and mechanical engineers learn how different disciplines use the same core knowledge to achieve different results.

Abstract:

Abstract Result of the Scientific Concerns from the Doctoral School of Mechanical Engineering and Mechatronics of the Valahia Târgovişte University and the research project of INCDMTM “INTEGRATED MECHATRONIC SYSTEM FOR HUMAN SECURITY INSURANCE FOR THE SAFETY OF OBJECTIVES AND INTERVENTIONS IN RISK - MISO ZONES” (project ID: PED-2016-0924, code PN-III-P2-2.1-PED-2016-0707) in the field of robotics, the scientific work “Intelligent Platform with BLDC Drives and Microsystems for Mechatronic Applications in Security and Surveillance “ is the completion of the experimental testing of controlling the movement of a security and surveillance robot, as part of the Ph.D. industrial thesis “Studies, research and contributions on the development of a smart mecatronic robot for security and surveillance applications”. The scientific work ultimately results in an intelligent, original platform that will be used to control the movement of the robot. The platform allows communication between the latest generation BLDC engine (embedded in the drive wheel) and it’s controller and a computerized microsystem that will handle the displacement controls and will also provide the link with the human operator through any remote guidance system that is used. Although designed for an intelligent security and surveillance mechatronic robot, this platform is proven to be extensively versatile for any other type of robot or mobile platform that uses BLDC wheel-drive engines. The project harmoniously combines Mechatronics, Cyber-MixMeatronic, Integronics and Artificial Intelligence into an Intelligent Interoperable Construction.

Abstract:

The today’s nanometrology limits the accuracy of the precision engineering. These limits are based on the meter definition as redefined in 1983. It is proposed to define precision mechatronics as the science and engineering of high level precision systems and machines. The paper describes a precision mechatronic machine. This device represents a long range positioning machine having a resolution of 0.1 nm over the range of 25 mm x 25 mm x 5 mm. The integration of several optical and tactile nanoprobes makes the 3D-nanopositioning suitable for various tasks. New developed nanoprobes (optical focus probe, nanoindenter, metrological scanning force microscope) and results of measurement will be presented.

Abstract:

The author constructed an installation course of mechatronics and conducted on the students of department of mechanical engineering, Oita national college of technology. The course is composed of six sessions and is aiming to grow up the mechanical engineers who can adapt quickly to changes in industrial society. Then, the education programs of computer technology and information processing are more emphasized in this course. Certainly the specific subjects involved with mechatronics are constructed as a part of curriculum in the older grades, however there is some difficulties to make students of department of mechanical engineering to have interests in electronics and/or information science. Viewed in this light, it is better to begin mechatronics education with undergoing experiments like this course since they were in early grade.

Abstract:

According to the traditional design method, in order to manufacture a mechatronic system, from the initial idea, the designer designs the mechanical system by CAD (Computer-Aided-Design), this system is then fabricated, finally, the system will be tested on the working condition. If the system does not work properly, the design of the system will be changed, and hardware is re-manufactured. This method is more time-consuming and cost for repairing and manufacturing hardware repeatedly. To save design time and reduce the cost of the manufacturing hardware as well as to optimize the design process of a mechatronics system, this paper introduces an engineering model it is called a virtual prototyping technology which allows optimizing the designs on the computer before manufacturing the test-bed system. Based on the concept of the system working, the mechatronics system is designed on SOLIDWORKS and then exported to the ADAMS software (Automated Dynamic Analysis of Mechanical System). The flexible element is also modeling and analysis in ANSYS software then exported to ADAMS. The integrated simulation in ADAMS environment is executed to investigate the dynamic behaviors of the mechanical system and design will be adjusted. Virtual prototyping model will then be exported to MATLAB/Simulink to develop the control strategies. Co-simulation results in some contexts to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed mechatronic system before implementing on test-bed
