Ogni modulo equivale a 3 crediti ECTS. È possibile scegliere un totale di 10 moduli/30 ECTS nelle seguenti categorie:
- 12-15 crediti ECTS in moduli tecnico-scientifici (TSM)
I moduli TSM trasmettono competenze tecniche specifiche del profilo e si integrano ai moduli di approfondimento decentralizzati. - 9-12 crediti ECTS in basi teoriche ampliate (FTP)
I moduli FTP trattano principalmente basi teoriche come la matematica, la fisica, la teoria dell’informazione, la chimica ecc. I moduli ampliano la competenza scientifica dello studente e contribuiscono a creare un importante sinergia tra i concetti astratti e l’applicazione fondamentale per l’innovazione - 6-9 crediti ECTS in moduli di contesto (CM)
I moduli CM trasmettono competenze supplementari in settori quali gestione delle tecnologie, economia aziendale, comunicazione, gestione dei progetti, diritto dei brevetti, diritto contrattuale ecc.

- Esame
In an automation system in manufacturing technology or process automation, sensors measure non-electric values and actuators, such as drives, influence the process. The individual components are controlled by control systems and automatic controllers, connected with industrial networks, and supervised by humans.
The emphasis of this module is on the selection and determination of the individual components, bearing in mind functional aspects, with special attention to functional safety.
Requisiti
- Basic principles of automation technology
- Basic principles of communication technology, e.g. OSI Reference Model, Ethernet, TCP/IP etc.
- Basic principles of statistics and random variables
Obiettivi di apprendimento
The student will be able to :
- establish the specifications of an integrated mechatronic system, including the sensors, the actuators, and the control systems;
- master the operation of electric drives for automated processes; be able to choose a motor with its controls according to the applications;
- select and to integrate technologies of sensors according to applications;
- determine a suitable communication system for an automation task on the basis of functions and performance parameters;
- designate the evaluation criteria for the application of user interfaces;
- plan and size an Ethernet-based network;
- calculate comprehensive parameters (MTBF, MTTF, MTU…) on the basis of statistical data;
- complete a risk analysis
