Control of Systems and Maintenance Management 1

But du cours

Course objectives To provide students with the fundamental knowledge necessary for implementing control of a process in the agri-food sector. Intended learning outcomes This course on system control and maintenance management is taught over the first two years of the engineering cycle. It aims to enable future agri-food engineers to:

1. Analyze in detail offers related to the automation of processes in the agri-food sector
2. Draft a specification sheet for the automation of an agri-food process
3. Establish and propose choices in terms of process control in the agri-food sector
4. Understand the basics of metrology and the different types of sensors useful for process control.

This first module includes: 8 hours (Lectures), 8 hours (Tutorials) for the control systems part and 4 hours (Lectures), 4 hours (Lab work) for the maintenance management part

Acquis d'apprentissage visés
