Description

You cannot apply Machine & Industrial Automation Control And Monitoring, without having a Machine to control in the first place!That's what this course is about, getting you introduced to :1. What are all of those moving parts we see in Industrial Machines2. What types of production lines can those parts actually make.Welcome to you in the first course of the five Courses Series about Robotics, Mechatronics and Industrial Automation.In this first Theoretical  course you will learn about:Shafts, Pulleys, Gears, Belts, Bearings, and all of those moving partsSizing Machine Motors according to the mechanical loadMachine manufacturing materials like Stainless steel and PlasticsConveyor systems design theory and Conveyor typesSingle/Three Axis Linear Motion systems design theoryStorage systems and DischargeFeeding systems in assembly lines and their TypesEnd Effectors for Milling and Pick and place applicationsA sum it all study caseWhy should you learn Machine Theory and Industrial Design?Tons and tons of tutorials are out there teaching about Control, Electronics and Machine Programming. But the courses actually talking about the bones of all of this is almost never existence. I'm here to introduce you to  the basics of Mechanical Systems used In Industrial and Manufacturing Environment.What to expect after completing this Course?Have a foundation about mechanical partsBe able to brain storm to design new machineUnderstand the different types of Production LinesBe able to identify production line and parts by sightThis is course #1/5 in the  Robotics & Mechatronics Series. The purpose of this series is to be able to design machines, control them, Digital Twin them, and then actually build them!
