In the course, students are deepened knowledge of theory, practical applications and design solutions of transport equipment. The course is devoted to the areas of theoretical foundations of transport, transport equipment for continuous transport, transport equipment for intermittent transport.
The course deepens knowledge of transport, handling, lifting and process equipment. The system of purposefully selected information enables students to make independent creative inputs into field applications that are at a high level of innovation and lead many students to the registration of their first inventions. The aim of the course is to support students' creative abilities with deepening their ability to see the connections between the machine, material, operation, ergonomics and a complex of other connections.
