Virtual commissioning as part of the educational process

摘要

This paper focuses on virtual commissioning of a robotic production system with elements of Industry 4.0. This model production system is located on the grounds of the Institute of Production Machines, Systems and Robotics, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Brno University of Technology. Production systems serve as a teaching support in the fields of robotics and automation. Students are acquainted with the mechatronic approach to the design of robotic production systems which are model based design For the production system design advanced software is used which is capable of simulating its kinematics, dynamics, their connection with controlling system and their mutual co-simulation. The outcome of the above-mentioned is a virtually commissioned workplace. The entire design is then verified in a real workplace.
