Online Training Programme on Sensors for Industrial Automation

Focus Areas

The course focuses on:

Sensor data sheets
Selection of a sensor
Connection techniques
Measurement systems in an automation system
Control systems with IO-Link
Practical connection and testing of different sensors

Background

Increasing demands for higher production quality, improved manufacturing efficiency, and more stringent environmental standards have led to the development of new and complex types of industrial Automation. Hence the greater need for industrial sensors. These sensor systems are finding widespread application in diverse fields as machine tools, product inspection, automotive parts and advanced composite aircraft. The sensors typically employ optical, ultrasonic, or microwave techniques to perform measuring functions. Most undergraduate mechanical engineering programmes do not fill this knowledge gap in the students' education and there exists a need for sensor engineering related courses. This program is tailored to meet this sensor related skill gap and Industrial needs. This training describes the development of such a skill, in particular, selecting the right sensors,

This course provides an overall exposure to the technology of Industrial Sensors and Controls as widely seen in factories of all types both for discrete and continuous manufacturing. The course also covers a wide range of topics like Sensor data sheets, selection of a sensor, Connection techniques and measurement systems in an automation system. It also including sensors and signal conditioning, discrete and continuous variable control systems with IO-Link,

Keeping this in view, Indian Machine Tool Manufacturers' Association (IMTMA) is organizing a Online programme on Online Industrial Training on “Industrial Sensors for Concurrent process control”
