  1. M E 487 or ME 510 (2)Mechatronics Instructor: Dr. Ou Ma Office: JH 515, Email: oma@nmsu.edu Tel.: (505)646-6534 Assistant: Toby Holden Office: JH 503, Email: toholden@nmsu.edu Tel.: (505)646- Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, NMSU

  2. What is Mechatronics Mechatronic System: • A machine combining electronic and mechanical components with modern controls and microprocessors • Examples:FingersCoffeeSoccerDrink filler WalkerFishISS ops Satellite docking Mechatronics: • A subject studying the principles, analysis, design, and operation of mechatronics systems • A field crossing the boundaries of traditional engineering disciplines such as mechanical engineering, electronic engineering, and computer engineering • A new course just being added into engineering curriculum recently years by many universities

  3. Main Topics Topics Approximate time allocation • Sensors modeling and analysis 2 weeks • Actuators and mechanical actuations 2 weeks • Interfacing and signal conditioning 3 weeks • Modeling and interface with Simulink & LaView 1.5 week • Logical circuits and applications 3 weeks (incl. projects) by Mr. Y. Tang of M-TEC • Modeling of mixed dynamic systems 1 week • Feedback motion control 1 week • Overview of Robotics 1 week • Design & implementation (projects) Throughout the semester

  4. Textbook, References, and Software Required Materials: • Mechatronics, Dan Necsulescu, Prentice Hall, 2002 • Handouts for stuff not covered by the textbook Required Software Access (for some assignments): • Matlab & Simulink • Labview References: • Introduction to Mechatronics and Measurement Systems, D. Alciatore & M. Bistand, McGraw Hill, 2nd Edition, 2003 • Mechatronics, W. Bolton, Prentice Hall, 1995 • Introduction to Robotics, S.B. Niku, Prentice Hall, 2001

  5. Schedule and Grading Lecture Time: Two hours weekly 1:10-2:00, T&Th, JH208 Office Hours: Four hours weekly 8:00-10:00, T&Th, JH515 Project Time: Three hours weekly 2:10-4:00, Th, JH 503 Assignments: Weekly to be assigned on every Tuesday Due on next Tuesday (late submission is unacceptable) Projects: 1. Robot fire-fighting contest (JH 503) 2. Industrial process controls (M-TEC) Grading: Assignments – 10% Projects – 20% Midterm exam – 30% Final exam – 40%

  6. Overview of a Mechatronic System

  7. Overview of a Mechatronic System Configurations (b), (c), and (d) are automatic systems (a) Operator-in-the-Loop Configuration (b) Computer-in-the-Loop Configuration (c) DSP-in-the-Loop Configuration (d) Embedded Computer-in-the-Loop Configuration

  8. Difference between Mechatronics and Robotics Mechatronics and Robotics are similar in the sense that they both deal with computer or microprocessor controlled machines. However, there are differences between the two subjects. Robotics systemMechatronics system - Focus on higher level SW and Control - Focus on lower-level HW and SW => a robot must have mechatronics components - General-purpose machine - Usually single-purpose machine - Coordinated multiple degree-of-freedom - Usually single dof or uncoordinated multi-dofs - Dynamics, control theory, AI, CS, etc. - Electronics, simple dynamics, mechanisms, etc. - Complex math models - Simple math models - Sophisticated control systems - Simple PID or logical controls - High-level programming languages - Low-level programming languages - Graduate course in most universities - Senior undergraduate course in most universities The above distinguishing points are not absolute and thus, for many people, robotics and mechatronics mean the same thing.

  9. Course Project 1: Contest of Robot Fire Fighting Objective: Design and build a robot which can find a burning candle in the maze and brow it out within a minimum time. Contest Rules: Per the international robotics contest at the Trinity College, New York. http://www.trincoll.edu/events/robot/ Building Materials: Lego Mindstorms Robots Kit How: Five teams, three students per team. Competition between teams.

  10. Course Project 2: Industrial Process Control Objective: Program and test PLC-based logical controllers for manufacturing process control. Instructor: Mr. Y Tang M-TEC, NMSU How: Students will do the project in the Automation Lab of M-TEC, NMSU.
