The objectives of the course are:
- Know the basics of automation of industrial systems and services (non-industrial): structure, industrial communications and systems control.
- Know the basics of collaborative robotics: structure, sensorization, control, programming, paths / outputs, multi- robot systems, industrial applications and services.
- Analyze and synthesize systems using advanced control: identification methods, fuzzy control, control with reference model, learning systems, control with neural networks, predictive control, etc.
- Use of simulation tools of production systems with continuous and discrete parts: lay-out, warehouses, transport, specific machines, delays, etc.
- Design an automated system of low and medium complexity with its cyber-physical components.
In fact thanks to this course:
The subject's goal is the acquisition of advanced new concepts of industrial robotics. The subject deals with the industrial robot from the integrated point of view, that is, not as an isolated machine but as a relevant part of a production system. In this way, the programming and control methods for the design of advanced applications are studied.
The student will acquire the necessary knowledge to understand the capabilities and limitations of various advanced applications with industrial robots, multi-robot systems and collaborative robots. The student will also learn to analyze and understand the resources necessary for the integration of robotic systems within an advanced production cell in the context of Industry 4.0.
Each part of the theoretical content of the subject (AF1) is also developed in a practical way (AF2), analyzing the methods and concepts exposed through the study of robotic environments, review of programming methods and integration strategies of real industrial robots (AF3), and especially cobots.
At the end of the course, the student must have the ability to understand the technologies integrating the robotic applications that support the concept of Industry 4.0 for the functional design and the implementation of disruptive solutions.
