Automation Technology

Automation technology as a part of engineering sciences

Examples of engineering-related sciences include:

mechanical engineering,
electrical engineering,
production engineering,
structural engineering,
and so on.

One point these sciences all have in common is the researching, definition and application of engineering principles. What differentiates them is the subject matter and the orientation of the respective discipline.

Automation technology is a crossover discipline that uses knowledge and scientific methods from numerous other technical sciences. According to DIN 19223, an automatic machine is an artificial system that makes decisions based on the linking of inputs with the respective states of the system; these decisions then produce very specific desired outputs.

Three components are needed to realise modern automatic processes:

sensors to detect the system states,
actuators to output the control commands,
controllers for the program flow and to make decisions.

On the following pages you will find exercises and solutions from Festo's brochure "Teaching with MecLab". They deal with the following chapters:

weiter Handling station
weiter Stacking magazine station
weiter Conveyor station

You can download all of the exercises and solutions in doc-format as an archive. [zip] [16 MB]
