Requirements (Subjects that are assumed to be known)
No prior training is required. The course is designed as an introductory course to industrial technologies for students from other fields of knowledge.
Objectives
The objective of the course is to have knowledge and understanding of the basic fundamentals of both industrial and service production processes, studying the different technologies used in them. In the course, the different production technologies will be studied in order to acquire the ability to design automatic process systems (production machinery, transport and storage systems and quality control) and the interconnection between their different modules (industrial protocols). The ability to program and simulate high, intermediate and low level robot control systems will also be acquired.
Learning Outcomes
Description of contents: programme
The contents to be developed are: - Discrete and continuous systems - Modeling of dynamic systems - Temporal and frequency responses of systems - Fundamentals of system programming - System simulation tools - Industrial production and service technologies - Industrial sensors and actuators - Industrial communications - Industrial systems control
Learning activities and methodology
The training activities carried out in the course are: AF1: Lectures/theoretical classes, where the content and examples will be taught, and exercises will be performed. AF4: Laboratory practices: A practical session will be conducted using an industrial simulator and a demonstration of existing industrial facilities at the University. AF5: Tutorials AF6: Group work: An individual or group project will be presented on a production process, which will be presented in class. AF7: Individual student work. An individual or group project will be presented on a production process, which will be presented in class. AF8: Midterm and final exams: A final exam will be held. The teaching methodologies used are: MD1: Lectures will be given, with lectures by the professor supported by computer and audiovisual media. These lectures will cover the main concepts of the subject and provide bibliography to complement student learning, aimed at acquiring theoretical knowledge. MD3: Theoretical and practical classes and laboratory practices will be used to acquire practical skills related to the course syllabus. Students will complete individual work, developing a practical case on production and service technologies, and will visit relevant centers of interest. MD4: In-class presentations and discussions will be conducted, moderated by the instructor, on topics related to the course content, as well as practical cases and work on production systems. MD5: Students will complete individual work, developing a practical case on production and service technologies, for which they will submit a report and presentation.
