- 1. 20ME702 - MECHATRONICS UNIT-1 INTRODUCTION Prepared by S.Chandra Kumar AP/MECHANICAL Kongunadu College of Engineering and Technology
- 2. INTRODUCTION 1969 -The ‘mechatronics’ word introduced by Tessturo Mori. E was a senior engineer of Japanese company Yaskawa Electric Corporation. 1971 – the company was granted the trademark rights on the word. 1970- 80- mostly the servo technology is used in mechatronics 1981-90-IT introduced. Microprocessors were embedded in Mechanical system.
- 3. 1991 -2000 – Communication technology was added. Remote operation and robotics were developed . 1996 – 1st journal IEEE on mechatronics was released. After 2000, finds application in aerospace, defence, bio- mechanics, automotive electronics, banking(ATM) etc.,
- 4. DEFINITION Mechatronics is “ the synergistic integration of mechanics and mechanical engineering, Electronics, computer technology, and IT to produce or enhance products and system” MECHA- Mechanism TRONICS - Electronics

- 10. Advantages of Mechatronics systems Cost effective and good quality products High degree of flexibility to modify or redesign Very good performance characteristics Wide area of applications Greater productivity in case of manufacturing organization Possibility or remote controlling as well as centralized monitoring and control Greater extend of machine utilization
- 11. Disadvantages of Mechatronics systems High initial cost Multi-disciplinary engineering background required to design and implementation Need of highly trained workers Complexity in identification and correction of problem in the system
- 12. TYPES OF CONTROL SYSTEM Open loop control system Closed loop or feedback control system
- 13. System
- 14. Open loop control system Open loop system are systems in which the output of a system is not used as a variable to control the system.
- 15. Element of open loop control systems Bread toaster (open loop ) control system Amplifier is a device amplifies the low level signal to the controller EXAMPLE OF OPEN LOOP:
- 16. ADVANTAGES Its simple and cost effective construction Easy maintenance, because no complex circuits. Good stability Good reliability Response quickly No Calibration is involved More convinent
- 17. DIS-ADVANTAGES It is Less accuruate Presence of non-linearity causes malfunctining Slow because of manual control Optimisation control is not possible System affected by internal and external disturbance
- 18. Closed loop control system Closed loop system uses on a feed back loop to control the operation of the system.
- 19. Room heating (Closed loop) control system EXAMPLE OF CLOSED LOOP CONTROL SYSTEM: ROOM HEATING SYSTEM
- 20. ADVANTAGES AND DIS ADVANTAGES Appropriate sensor, greater stability. Better repetability. Task faster than open loop. Good reliability. Closed loop complicated in construction. Cost is higher. Sometimes closed loop system is unstable.
- 21. Open loop system It does not uses feedback It is less accurate It is simple in construction Presence of non-linearity causes malfunctioning The response is slow because manual control Easy maintenance because of no complex electronic circuit Cost is less Closed loop system It uses feedback system It is more accurate It is complicated in construction It perform accurately even in presence of non- linearity It perform task faster than open loop It is difficult to maintain and repair Cost is more
- 22. Measurement system Liquid level measurement system Example of measurement system: Digital liquid level measuring system.
- 23. Cooling level control system Steering control system of an automobile CONTROL SYSTEMS
- 24. AUTOMATIC CONTROL SYSTEMS A control system refers to a group of physical component connected or related in such a manner as to command direct or regulate itself or another system.
- 25. Temperature and blood pressure control system of human body
- 26. Automatic tank level control system
- 27. SEQUENTIAL CONTROL SYSTEM A sequential control involve sequential execution of well defined operations.( particular order) Each operation or activity called step.
- 28. EXAMPLE: The working of modern automatic washing machine Step 1 : pre-wash cycle Step 2: main wash cycle Step 3: rinse (WATER DIP) cycle Step 4: spin cycle
- 29. 1) PRE WASH CYCLE: Electrically operated valve opens to allow cold water to fill in drum Level sensor is check the required water Water level reaches , sensor signal to micro controller to switch off the water supply Washing takes place. 2) MAIN WASH CYCLE: Once again the pre wash cycle takes place to fill the water After filling the water Micro processor activates the switch to electric heater to heat the water in the main wash. Temperature sensor is used to measure the required heat. Motor drum finally comes to a slow speed and switched off
- 30. 3) RINSE CYCLE: Main wash completed, microprocessor output to the rinse cycle and allow to fill cold water Drum motor is rotated the drum and drain pump is operate to drain the water. 4) SPIN CYCLE: Micro processor switches on the drum motor and it is signal to rotate the drum higher speed than the Rinse cycle.
