Study Notes
- DM312 introductory lecture covers Mechatronics and Functional Design
- Mechatronics term originated in the 1960s in Japan, associated with robots
- Microprocessors introduced to mechanical systems led to improved performance
- Mechatronics ethos emphasizes communication and collaboration in design projects
- Mechatronic systems consist of physical components controlled by electronics and software
- Mechatronics can be thought of as systems with an input and output
- Mechatronics is used in various products like washing machines, CD-players, and cars
- Mechatronic products are highly integrated, posing challenges for designers and manufacturing
- Mechatronic systems consist of processors, sensors, actuators, and user interfaces
- Functional design is a mode of action or activity that fulfills a purpose
- Mechatronic design involves a functional model from a process perspective
- Mechatronic modelling approaches include information and dataflow models, power and energy flow models, state and transition models, morphological charts, sequence diagrams, function-means tree, hierarchy diagrams, and timing diagrams
- Practical exercise: groups of 4 or 5 make an existing non-mechatronic product intelligent through mechatronic design.
