Mechatronics engineering also called mechatronics, is an interdisciplinary branch of engineering that focuses on the integration of mechanical, electrical and electronic engineering systems, and also includes a combination of robotics, electronics, computer science, telecommunications, systems, control, and product engineering.[1][2]

As technology advances over time, various subfields of engineering have succeeded in both adapting and multiplying. The intention of mechatronics is to produce a design solution that unifies each of these various subfields. Originally, the field of mechatronics was intended to be nothing more than a combination of mechanics, electrical and electronics, hence the name being a portmanteau of the words "mechanics" and "electronics"; however, as the complexity of technical systems continued to evolve, the definition had been broadened to include more technical areas.
The word mechatronics originated in Japanese-English and was created by Tetsuro Mori, an engineer of Yaskawa Electric Corporation. The word mechatronics was registered as trademark by the company in Japan with the registration number of "46-32714" in 1971. The company later released the right to use the word to the public, and the word began being used globally. Currently the word is translated into many languages and is considered an essential term for advanced automated industry.[3]
3. Position Sensing
•Position sensor is a device that can detect
the movement of an object and converts
these into signals suitable for processing,
transmission, or control. TE Connectivity
(TE) is a leading manufacturer of industrial
linear and angular position, tilt and fluid
level sensors.
4. AMR POSITION SENSORS
• Anisotropic Magneto-Resistive
(AMR) sensors are precise and
contact-less devices that
measure the changes in the
angle of a magnetic field as
seen by the sensor. TE
Connectivity's (TE) magnetic
position sensors offer robust
non-contact position
measurements in harsh
environments.
5. PRECISION PHOTOELECTRIC SENSORS
SerieS ML10, ML4.2, ML6, MLV41, R2
• Precise, noncontact object and edge
detection.
• Sharp background suppression
sensors.
• Retroreflective and Thru-beam
sensors.
• Wide range of housing sizes
6. Ultrasonic sensor
SERIES F43, F54, F77, M12, M18,
M30
• Noncontact distance
measurement.
• Insensitive to material, colors,
and reflective surfaces.
• Immune to dust
• Analog or switching outputs
7. Optical identification
OPTICAL PRINT INSPECTOR, BIS510,
VOS412-BIS, VB14N
• High-speed reading of 1-D and
2-D codes.
• Sheet verification for collating,
folding, and binding machines n
Reads very large barcodes.
• Powerful functions like
multicode reading, code quality
output, match code function,
and logo comparison
8. ULTRASONIC DOUBLE SHEET AND
SPLICE DETECTION
UDC-18GM, UGB-18GM
• Ultrasonic Thru-beam sensors
detect double sheets and
splices.
• High-speed detection.
• Insensitive to material, colors,
and reflective surfaces.
• Immune to dust
9. Contrast sensors and color sensors
SerieS DK, DF
• Reliable registration and color
mark detection.
• Splice detection.
• Sorting, positioning, quality
control.
• Very high switching frequency.
• Large variety of models,
including versions with
interchangeable lense.
10. Photoelectric safety sensors
SLCS and SLCT SAFETY LIGHT CURTAINS
SERIES, SAFEBOX
• From single-beam safety Thru-
beam sensors to multi-beam
machine protection.
• Finger protection, hand
protection, and body protection.
• Integrated evaluation or
evaluation using SafeBox.
11. Photoelectric miniature precision sensors
• Our photoelectric product portfolio of miniature
precision sensors range from background
suppression to retroreflective sensors and
measurement sensors. The miniature sensors are
used for precise sheet alignment, sheet presence,
and edge detection in prepress, press, or postpress
machines
• Detectable targets range from deep black and
reflective to transparent materials. Infrared light
and the triangulation principle guarantee switching
accuracy, even under heavy dust. The switching
accuracy has a direct impact on the laser-engraving
process, the print result, or the die-cutting
precision.
• Very high degree of switching accuracy
• Precise object and edge detection
• Precise object and edge detection
