Mechatronics laboratory (G005)

The laboratory deals with fundamental and current issues of mechatronic components in various machines. Especially in the field of sensor and control technology there are extensive training and investigation possibilities.

Goals and idea

Electrical and control systems are also becoming increasingly important in the field of mechanical engineering. The aim of our laboratory is to provide students in this field with sound knowledge and skills.

Laboratory G005

Laboratory equipment and activities

Electric karts with different drive trains and with self-developed functions: e.g. measurement data acquisition and telemetry, detection of unstable driving conditions, torque vectoring, adaptive distance control ACC
Tools for rapid prototyping e.g. dSpace µAutoBox and a self-designed development environment based on Simulink
Measurement data acquisition on the basis of LabView
Function display on micro-controllers: e.g. Arduino Uno, Arduino Due, Raspberry Pi
Sensors and actuators from the automotive sector
Use of bus systems: e.g. I²C, SPI and CAN bus
Test setups for general electrical engineering and control engineering: e.g. motor control, level control, floating ball in the magnetic field, ball on rocker
