Description:
MECH 4523, Control Systems, utilizes machine and system control principles involving electromagnetic relay, solid- state and fluid logic control in applications containing motors, heaters and valves. Topics included are proper use of safety devices, interlocking with other electro- mechanical equipment as well as manual and automatic control systems. A wide variety of simulated systems are used in design projects to allow evaluation of a variety of design solutions and experience trouble-shooting control system designs. Development of control systems applying electro- mechanical system analogies and relationships.
