Automation in design

Summary

In this course, you will become familiar with the elements that must be included in the design of equipment for the purpose of safety and automation. This will involve an introduction to various types of sensors used for both controlling and monitoring, as well as securing the designed equipment. At the same time, you will learn about the logic of control for machinery and the hygiene requirements for their design, as well as the design of protective covers and locking devices.
