Machine Mechanics

By the end of this subject, students will be able to have: 1. A systematic understanding of the key aspects and concepts of pneumatics and oleohydraulics. 2. The ability to apply their knowledge and understanding to identify, formulate and solve problems of pneumatics and oleohydraulics using established methods. 3. The ability to apply their knowledge and understanding to develop and realise designs of pneumatics and oleohydraulics to meet defined and specified requirements. 4. The ability to design and conduct appropriate experiments in pneumatics and oleohydraulics, interpret the data and draw conclusions. 5. Workshop and laboratory skills in pneumatics and oleohydraulics. 6. The ability to select and use appropriate equipment, tools and methods to solve problems of pneumatics and oleohydraulics. 7. the ability to combine theory and practice to solve problems of pneumatics and oleohydraulics.

CB1: Students have demonstrated possession and understanding of knowledge in an area of study that builds on the foundation of general secondary education, and is usually at a level that, while relying on advanced textbooks, also includes some aspects that involve knowledge from the cutting edge of their field of study. CB2: Students are able to apply their knowledge to their work or vocation in a professional manner and possess the competences usually demonstrated through the development and defence of arguments and problem solving within their field of study. CG1: Ability to resolve problems with initiative, creativity decision-making and critical reasoning skills, and to communicate and transmit knowledge, skills and abilities in the Industrial Engineering area. CG3: Capacity to design a system, component or process in the area of mechanical engineering in compliance with required specifications. CG9: Knowledge and capacity to apply computational and experimental tools for analysis and quantification of mechanical engineering problems. CE2: Knowledge and capabilities for machine calculation, design and testing. CE6: Applied knowledge of the fundamentals of fluid mechanical systems and machines.

Fundamentals and concepts of pneumatic. Elements of pneumatic systems: Compressors, tanks, etc Pneumatic cilinders and motors. Pneumatic valves. Design of pneumatic circuits. Fundamentals and concepts of hydraulic. Elements of hydraulic systems: Pumps, tanks, filters, hydraulic fluids, etc Hydraulic cilinders and motors. Hydraulic Valves. Design of hydraulic machines.

Lectures will be explained in big groups, exercises for understanding the lectures will be solved, labs will be carried out and a project in groups will also be done. In addition, 2 labs will be carried out: Lab 1: Design and calculation of pneumatic circuits by means of panel construction. Lab 2: Disassembly, assembly and analysis of hydraulic elements.
