Discover aluminum profiles (extrusions) and accessories, learn to assemble 90-degree frames with hidden corners and slide nuts, and review sizes from 20 by 20 to 90 by 180.
Explore how screws and nuts are sized in mechanical design using metric standards (m2 to m12), including effective diameter, clearance holes, tapping, and pitch.
Explore storage systems in chemical production lines, including hoppers with discharge mechanisms and weighing hoppers for precise dosing, and tanks with level measurement sensors for liquid mixing.
Explore discharge mechanisms for hoppers, including gravity gates, belt conveyors, and screw conveyors, with emphasis on material suitability, flow control, and dosing accuracy.
Explore conveyor system types, from modular and flat belts to screw, elevator, bucket, and chain conveyors, and learn how each design supports production lines and material handling.
Understand elevator conveyors that lift seeds and grains from a low to a high point using a bucket-equipped inclined belt, with outlet for discharge into a mixer and packaging line.
Explore turntables for bottle feeding and accumulation in production lines, including disk design, barriers, motors, and HDPE channels that guide and discharge bottles to conveyors.
Master timing belt based linear guides: learn how a pulley and a toothed belt produce accurate, slip-free motion with GT2 and T5 pitches, carriages, and sigma profiles.
Explore end effectors, the tools that enable CNC cutting, 3D printing heating to melt plastic, and pick-and-place actions. See how blades, bits, heating elements, clamps, and vacuums form different effectors.
Explore Scara robots, featuring three rotational axes and a four-axis configuration, a compact workspace, and end effectors for fast, precise assembly with clamps, vacuum, or rotational end effectors.
Delta robots use three motors and ball joints to move lightweight aluminum rods, delivering fast, micrometer-level precision within a defined workspace for pick-and-place, packaging, and 3D printing.
Explore inverse kinematics, solving for joint angles to move the end effector to a target x, y, z point, a complex, linear-algebra driven problem crucial for camera-guided robot grasping.
Robotics software from manufacturers solves forward and inverse kinematics, letting you set end effector dimensions and workspace limits to enable path planning and safe trajectories without mastering the math.
Identify mechanical parts in production lines, including conveying, feeding, distribution systems, and raw materials used in machines, plus CAD basics for conveyors, frames, and linear guides with plc control.
This first Course of the series, is Purely about Mechanical Machine Design.
You cannot apply Machine & Industrial Automation Control And Monitoring, without having a Machine to control in the first place!
That's what this course is about, getting you introduced to :
1. What are all of those moving parts we see in Industrial Machines
2. What types of production lines can those parts actually make.
Welcome to you in the first course of the five Courses Series about Robotics, Mechatronics and Industrial Automation.
In this first Theoretical course you will learn about:
Shafts, Pulleys, Gears, Belts, Bearings, and all of those moving parts
Sizing Machine Motors according to the mechanical load
Machine manufacturing materials like Stainless steel and Plastics
Conveyor systems design theory and Conveyor types
Single/Three Axis Linear Motion systems design theory
Storage systems and Discharge
Feeding systems in assembly lines and their Types
End Effectors for Milling and Pick and place applications
Most famous industrial Robotics
Algorithm used to Control Industrial Robotics
A sum it all study case
And tons of Quizzes!
Why should you learn Machine Theory and Industrial Design?
Tons and tons of tutorials are out there teaching about Control, Electronics and Machine Programming.
But the courses actually talking about the bones of all of this is almost never existence. I'm here to introduce you to the basics of Mechanical Systems used In Industrial and Manufacturing Environment.
What to expect after completing this Course?
Have a foundation about mechanical parts
Be able to brain storm to design new machine
Understand the different types of Production Lines
Be able to identify production line and parts by sight
This is course #1/5 in the Robotics & Mechatronics Series. The purpose of this series is to be able to design machines, control them, Digital Twin them, and then actually build them!
