13. • A Mechatronics system is a synergistic
integration of mechanical with electrical,
electronics, and intelligent computer
control technologies.
• With the intersection of mechanics,
electronics, and computing, mechatronics
specialists create simpler and smarter
(intelligent) systems.
Mechatronic System (Intelligent )

14. The term mechatronics was first introduced by
Tetsuro Muri, a Japanese engineer of Yasakawa
Electric Corporation in 1969. However, it was
introduced in academics first in 1996 after related
publication in the refereed and reputed journals of
IEEE and ASME Transactions on Mechatronics.
Evolution

15. Evolution of Mechatronic System

16. • In 1996, Yasakawa defined mechatronics as
follows: ‘The word mechatronics is composed
of “mecha” from mechanism and the “tronics”
from electronics’.
• Harashima, Tomzreka, and Kudads defined it
as ‘the synergetic integration of mechanical
engineering with electronics and intelligent
computer control to design and manufacture
industrial products and processes’ in 1996.
• In the same year, Auslandar and Kempf
defined it as follows: ‘Mechatronics is the
application of complex design making to the
operation of physical systems’.
Definitions Of Mechatronics

17. • In 1997, Shetty and Kolk defined it as
follows: ‘Mechatronics is the
methodology used for the optimal
design of electromechanical products’.
• W. Bolton defined it as follows: ‘A
mechatronic system is not just
marriage of electrical and mechanical
systems and is more than just a
control system; it is complete
integration of all of them’.

Linear System
Nonlinear
Distributed
Lumped
Probabilistic
Deterministic

40. Dynamic System – the components and system are
represented to give an output with a time constraint.
Represented by integral or differential equation. The
dynamic system depends on past, future or a
combination with present y(t)=x(t-1)+x(t) or y(t) =
x(t+1)
Eg. .An electric circuit containing inductors and (or)
capacitors
Static System - the components and system are
represented to give an output without a time
constraint. y(t)= 2x(t)
Eg. Purely resistive electrical circuits, where the
output is proportional to the input

41. Linear System - linear relationship
between input and output. Obey the
principle of homogeneity and principle of
superposition.

Linear electronic filters, Circuits composed
exclusively of ideal resistors, linear
capacitors, inductors (air core or iron core
in linear region), op-amps (in the "non-
saturated" region), and other "linear"
circuit elements

42. Nonlinear – does not show linear relationship
between input and output
• Circuits that operate in a nonlinear way, such
as mixers, modulators, rectifiers, radio receiver
detectors and digital logic circuits.
• Loads that generate harmonic currents, such
as motor controllers, inverters, welding
equipment, MRI scanner, rectifiers, UPS
systems, computers, printers, TVs and
electronic lighting ballasts.

time and are concentrated at a singular point.
Developed using differential equation.
Homogeneous and consistent system can be
lumped not heterogeneous.

44. Deterministic – Constituted by a unique set
of variable system parameters with previous
state values. Its results are dependent on the
initial values of the variables. Next state can
be perfectly predicted.

external forces acting on it.
• A pendulum swinging back and forth.
• A clock ticking.

45. Probabilistic / stochastic – Constituted

unique set of values. Represented using
probabilistic distribution. The occurrence
of events cannot be perfectly predicted.

51. • Closed loop system regulates the output to a certain
value based on the feedback provided by a
measuring device.
• A self regulating system is fully automatic.
• Elements of closed Loop system
i) Elements for comparison :
Error = Desired/set/reference value – measured value
Error is generated by negative feedback, positive
feedback and bipolar feedback.
Negative feedback is used to control a system.

52. Negative feedback gives a reduced output, positive
feedback gives a increased output value bipolar gives
either of both.
• In control systems, negative feedback is desired for a
number of reasons that are:
• Stability
• Correction of Errors
• Robustness
• Reduces the effects of non-linearity
• Acceptance of Uncertainty
• Reduces Unrestricted Growth
• Controlling System Saturation
• Improvements to Control Performance

53. ii) Control Elements: Take an action based on the error
signal. Controls the process according to algorithm.
iii) Correction element : Minimize the error based on
the control signal issued by controller. A switch
(effector/ actuator/ final control element) to turn ON or
OFF AC/fan for cooling room.
iv) Process element : Combination of various functions
of different system controlled using closed loop control.
v) Measurement element : Output a value of signal
corresponding to input physical variable parameter
under measurement. Measured value is compared with
required value. Error processed to issue control signal
command for correction.

56. Advantages and Disadvantages of
closed loop control systems
• Advantages:
More accurate, More flexible control, easier
to use, more informative, more intelligent,
more useful than manual control
• Disadvantages:
More complex mechanism, complex
hardware, More prone to breakdown or
damage, Newly developed components may
outdate existing one.

57. What type of control is used in traffic light
system? How can we convert it from one form
of control to another form?

it an open loop or closed loop system? How can
we transform an open loop system to closed

control engineering after advances in semiconductor
technology, especially microchips and computer
technology. It responds to the industries’ increasing
demand for engineers who are able to work across
boundaries of conventional engineering. Mechatronic
engineers identify and utilize the interdisciplinary
knowledge and proper combinations of technologies
to provide optimal solutions for increasing engineering
problems.
Mechatronics for all
(Applications of Mechatronics)

75. • Application of such knowledge and technology
leads to the development of more efficient,
intelligent, cost-effective product designs to
meet the growing market demand.
• In particular, the development of microprocessors
and microcomputers encouraged engineers to
integrate interdisciplinary areas and apply them
to various products from all walks of life, such as
in the fields of consumer product design,
manufacturing, instrumentation, motion control,
industrial processes, robotics, aircraft, traction,
defence, automated diagnostic systems,
medicines, and biotechnology

76. Application of Mechatronics
• Robotics
• Defence
• Biomedical and Surgery
Robotic Surgery
Laparoscopy
• Agriculture – Automatic Weed controller
• Automation
Industrial Automation
Automation in Automobile Industry
