Objectives The aim of this course is to introduce polymer engineering students into basic concepts of measurement and control engineering. For a better understanding of the discussed theories, the course includes practical exercises (simulations and laboratory exercises).
Subject Part I:

  • Introduction to Signals and Systems (Matlab)

Part II:

  • Measurement basics (Sensitivity, Resolution, Precision, Linearity, Statistics)
  • Power Measurement
  • Process sensors (Temperature, Pressure, Force, Position,….)
  • Signal conditioning
  • Data acquisition
  • Advanced process sensors (Spectroscopy, Ultrasound,…)
  • Laboratory exercises and/or Matlab Simulations – Measurement

Part III:

  • Process control basics
  • PID control
  • Process control in injection moulding and extrusion
  • Matlab Simulations – Process control
Criteria for evaluation Written final exam
