Metron2

Mechatronics system design - part 2

Information

Basic course into the multi-disciplinary development of mechatronic systems, which builds on the foundation laid in the course “Mechatronics system design - part 1 (Metron1)”. Participants will acquire broad technical knowledge beyond the limits of their own discipline: mechanical engineering, electronics, information technology and optics.

 

After the course, the participant will be able to make a more effective contribution to the realization of mechatronic constructions because he/she has acquired a broader technical knowledge beyond the limits of his own discipline.

Intended for

Designers, design engineers, project leaders and groupleaders who are involved in the multi-disciplinary development of products and means of production. Prerequisites: college/university education, with at least two years experience and completion of the course “Mechatronics system design - part 1 (Metron1)”.
