Competence Goal
The students...
- are able to name and describe the automation tasks in production plants and the components required for implementation.
- can select components from the areas of ‘handling technique, ‘industrial robots’, ‘sensor technology’ and ‘control & drive technology’ for a given application.
- are able to compare different concepts of robotics and select the appropriate one for a given application.
- can assess the automation of production plants implemented on the basis of the examples given and apply them to new problems.
- know the process of planning automated production plants.
- can apply the theoretical knowledge they have acquired in practice.
- are able to develop a solution concept for an automation task, project it and implement the main features of it.
Prerequisites
none
Content
The lecture provides an overview of the structure and functioning of automated production systems. The functioning and application of fundamental elements for the realisation of automated production systems are taught. These include:
- Drive and control technology
- Handling technology for handling workpieces and tools
- Industrial robots
- Quality assurance in automated production plants
- Structures and design of manufacturing and assembly systems
- Introduction to project planning of automated production plants
An interdisciplinary consideration of these sub-areas reveals interfaces to Industry 4.0 approaches. The theoretical foundations are supplemented by practical application examples and live demonstrations in the Karlsruhe Research Factory. Within exercises, the contents of the lecture are deepened and applied to specific problems and tasks.
The seminar Application of Production Automation focuses on the practical implementation of automation tasks. In small groups, solutions to automation problems are developed and basic functionalities are implemented in the Karlsruhe Research Factory. The results of this work are presented in a final presentation.
Workload
The work load is about 270 hours, corresponding to 9 credit points.
