AIMS AND CONTENT

LEARNING OUTCOMES

Creating base for industrial plants engineer able to integrate designing and economics-management aspects over the entire lifecycle of complex plants. Thus the learning process is based on general feasibility studies allowing to define, through different phases, useful elements for designing, construction and operation of the system. The course aims to provide the mechanical engineering students a systemic approach, techniques and methodologies widely adopted in industrial context.

TEACHING METHODS

Lessons on powerpoint presentations in Italian/English language. Course book.

SYLLABUS/CONTENT

Fundamentals of process plants and production systems. Features of industrial buildings and related designing criteria, structural loads, lighting engineering, work place climatic control. Internal transportation and containment equipment, load units definition. Designing and testing elements for: overhead travelling crane, motorized trolleys, elevators, rolling and gravity transporters, chain transporters (mono- and bi-rails), trolleys and special transporters. AGV, LGV transportation systems and control logics of automatic systems. Designing of transportation plants including: conveyors, cup elevators, and pneumatic transportation. Designing features and targets for production and service plants.
