Aim

Modern manufacturing systems become increasingly automated and the constituent resources are increasingly integrated. The systems also become more complex, while the required efficiency increases. The course aims to provide students with greater knowledge of flexible manufacturing systems in the form of integration between machines, robots, control systems and business systems. The course aims to provide a basic understanding of systems in robotics, PLC, pneumatics and hydraulics. Furthermore, the student should through the practical application of basic skills be able to plan, program and monitor the control of an automated manufacturing unit by coordinating communication between e.g. machine tools, conveyors, PLC and robots.
