Description and Contextualization of the SubjectToggle Navigation
DESCRIPTION
Industrial Automation is an engineering discipline that aims to improve manufacturing processes in terms of quality, cost and efficiency, using electronic, mechanical, pneumatic, pneumatic, hydraulic systems, or combinations of these. It is therefore an interdisciplinary subject, which trains students to develop automation projects in industrial environments.
Industrial Automation has become one of the key elements for increasing the competitiveness of companies in practically all industrial sectors. Therefore, there is a clear need for professionals with the necessary skills to tackle automation projects.
PREREQUISITES
Industrial Automation is an interdisciplinary subject that requires knowledge and skills acquired in other subjects.
skills acquired in other subjects. For this reason, it is recommended to have taken the following subjects:
2nd Course:
- Industrial Electronics.
- Automation and control.
3rd Course:
- Digital Electronics.
- Industrial computing.
- Automatic Regulation.
Skills/Learning outcomes of the subjectToggle Navigation
COMPETENCIES Specific Technology Module: Industrial Electronics (TEEOI)
TEEOI.8. Knowledge of automatic regulation and control techniques and their application to industrial automation. industrial automation.
TEEOI.11. Ability to design industrial automation and control systems.
LEARNING OUTCOMES
1. Ability to identify and analyse electronic subsystems and devices applied to the automation of industrial processes.
2. Ability to design, develop and manage integral projects for the design and implementation of control and automation systems applied to industrial processes.
3. Ability to handle computer tools for programming devices of general use in the automation of industrial processes.
4. Ability to handle technical documentation from manufacturers, necessary for the improvement and integration of different modules in the automation systems of industrial processes.
5. Ability to adequately communicate the knowledge, procedures and results obtained, using the vocabulary and terminology specific to the area of industrial automation, together with the appropriate means for this purpose.
6. Work effectively in multidisciplinary and multilingual environments integrating skills and knowledge to make decisions in the field of industrial automation.
Theoretical and practical contentToggle Navigation
Study of visual techniques for the design of Industrial Automation applications Grafcet, as a visual tool for the design of Automation projects.
Implementation of Automatisms for control loops using arithmetic operations Local control loops with analogue signals will be implemented using arithmetic operations and data acquisition operations of analogue signals.
Introduction to the knowledge and modes of application of actuators and sensors (transducers). Most common actuators and sensors in Industrial Process Automation.
Knowledge and ability to program other PLC families Programming of Omron, Sigmatek, Beckhoff PLCs.
Knowledge of control and data acquisition systems and their application in Industrial Control. Siemens and Omron SCADA systems
Advanced applications of Industrial Automation Study of the SMC flexible cell
MethodologyToggle Navigation
Active methodologies will be followed, in particular problem-based learning (PBL/ABP): real industrial applications are presented which students will have to face by identifying, experimenting and solving in order to provide automation, control and communications solutions.
A specific field will be worked on in a small group of students, who will have to present the work done at the end of the year, together with a practical project, where the student will be asked to present the results of their work.
Assessment systemsToggle Navigation
- Final Assessment System
- Tools and qualification percentages:
- Written test to be taken (%): 20
- Realization of Practical Work (exercises, cases or problems) (%): 5
- Individual works (%): 5
- Team projects (problem solving, project design)) (%): 35
- Exhibition of works, readings ... (%): 35
Ordinary Call: Orientations and DisclaimerToggle Navigation
The final mark of the course will be composed by 10% of delivery and correction of practices and 20% of the exam of the first part with obligation of passing and 70% of group work with a practice to develop. The quality of the work and attendance to the exhibition of the other works will be 35%, the presentation and practice will be 15%, and the evaluation of the classmates will be 20%, where 10% will be evaluated by the classmates themselves and 10% by the rest of the students.
If this work is not done, the students will request a written exam on the subject of the work presented and the practical work done one month before the end of the course. If this request is not made or no work is presented, the student will be considered to have failed the course (compulsory attendance and continuous assessment).
"In the event that it is not possible to carry out a face-to-face assessment of the subject, the relevant changes will be made to carry out an online assessment using the UPV/EHU's existing computer tools. The characteristics of this online assessment will be published in the student guides and in e-gela" Ordinary call: Orientations and Waivers
Extraordinary Call: Orientations and DisclaimerToggle Navigation
The student who must take this exam will take a written test on the material of the work presented and the practices carried out.
In the case of having passed the practicals, these will be valued at 30% and the exam at 70%, otherwise the exam will be valued at 100%.
"In the event that it is not possible to carry out a face-to-face assessment of the subject, the appropriate changes will be made to carry out an online assessment using the UPV/EHU's existing computer tools. The characteristics of this online assessment will be published in the student guides and in e-gela"
