Virtual Laboratory for Automation and Robotics

The importance of automation in the process industries has increased dramatically in recent years. In the highly industrialized countries, process automation serves to enhance product quality, master the whole range of products, improve process safety and plant availability, efficiently utilize resources and lower emissions. In the rapidly developing countries, mass production is the main motivation for applying process automation. The main actor in automation is the industrial robots which are widely used in highly industrialized countries. The lack of qualified personnel (from worker level to manager level) in automation technology is one of the most important problems to apply automation. This problem arises especially in SMEs, where the automated applications are rarely realized because of lack of information in every level of personal from managers to workers. The main aim and objective of this project is to create a training module about automation with industry robots and sensors to educate the managers/employees of SMEs and technical teachers in vocational schools about automation systems in industry and robot technology. It is proposed to get a training package (possibly for two weeks) which can be applied to those target groups which is created according to special needs of Turkish market and Turkish vocational education system. Moreover, we would like to prepare a technical laboratory which contains either/both simple training robots or robot simulation programs in context of this project. There are 4 partners from 3 european countries: Turkey, Germany and Poland The participation of professional organizations, training institutions, research center and also SMEs will empower the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed model and this will contribute to the sustainability of the project activities. The easy implementation will be ensured by incremental redesign method which will be applied in all steps and workpackages of the project. The final target will be divided into subtargets which will be defined as milestones in order to ensure to reach the desired target successfully.
