Programme of Research Development of Mechatronic Drive Systems

The growing demands of the complexity of industrial systems require knowledge of advanced issues covered of mechatronics domain. On the other hand, is noticeable a need to adjust programs of specialized educational programmes to rapidly changing requirements of labor market. The article presents new trends in the field of education covering the scope of mechatronic drive systems. The authors specified leading trends in the development of diagnosis and prognosis of mechatronic drive states that have been realized in the Laboratory of Mechatronics Drive Applications. Particular attention was paid to the issues of energy savings and modem systems of exchange of information between distributed drives, using a Fieldbus and wireless networks.
