INTRODUCTION EFFECTS OF FEEDBACK
INTRODUCTION EFFECTS OF FEEDBACK • Overall Gain positive feedback gain, reduced overall gain
• Stability ability of system to follow the input command signal
• Sensitivity insensitive to parameter changes, good control system
• Noise vibrations, brush and commutator noise, etc.
INTRODUCTION OPEN LOOP SYSTEM is a control system that utilizes a controller or control actuator to obtain the desired response. It also a system in which the output variable does not have any influence on the input variable and on the actuating device. It is a control system with a preprogrammed set of instructions to an actuator that has no feedback or error-detection process; consequently, the system is unable to make compensatory adjustments.

HISTORY 300BC The first applications of feedback control appeared in the development of float regulator mechanisms in Greece in the period 300 to 1 B.C. The water clock of Ktesibios used a float regulator.
HISTORY 250BC An oil lamp devised by Philon, used a float regulator in an oil lamp for maintaining a constant level of fuel oil. Heron of Alexandria, who lived in the first century A.D., published a book entitled Pneumatica, which outlined several forms of water-level mechanisms using float regulators.
HISTORY 1572 - 1633 The first feedback system to be invented in modern Europe was the temperature regulator of Cornelius Drebbel of Holland

MODERN CONTROL SYSTEMS Conventional Control Systems and Computer Controlled Systems
Cayetano, Nedino Lester D
MODERN CONTROL SYSTEMS FEEDBACK Positive feedback seeks to increase the event that caused it, such as in a nuclear chain-reaction. It is also known as a self-reinforcing loop. An event influenced by positive feedback can increase or decrease its output until it hits a limiting constraint. Self-reinforcing loops can be a smaller part of a larger balancing loop, especially in biological systems such as regulatory circuits. Negative feedback seeks to reduce the input signal that caused it, is also known as a self-correcting or balancing loop. Such loops tend to be goal-seeking, as in a thermostat which compares actual temperature with desired temperature and seeks to reduce the difference.
MODERN CONTROL SYSTEMS CONVETIONAL CONTROLLED SYSTEM A manually controlled control system utilizes human intervention on regulating a system wherein an operator is instructed to maintain a certain level. The reference is memorized by the operator. The operator compares the actual level visually with the desired level and controls switches (actuator) to maintain the desired level . The power amplifier is the operator and the sensor is the visual.
MODERN CONTROL SYSTEMS COMPUTER CONTROLLED SYSTEM is defined as a control system where a computer replaces a group of single-loop analogue controllers. Its greater computational ability makes the substitution possible and also permits the application of more complex advanced-control techniques. The advantage offered by the digital computer over the conventional control system is that the computer can be programmed readily to carry out a wide variety of separate tasks. In addition, it is fairly easy to change the program so as to carry out a new or revised set of tasks.

AUTOMATIC ASSEMBLY
AUTOMATIC ASSEMBLY AUTOMATIC ASSEMBLY is a computerized production control technique used in the production of manufactured goods to balance output production with demand
AUTOMATIC ASSEMBLY DISCRETE PARTS MANUFACTUING •Mass Production •Batch Production •Job-Shop Manufacturing
AUTOMATIC ASSEMBLY PROCESS CONTROL MANUFACTURING •Development of analytical instruments to record what is happening as we as to analyze the chemical constituents of gases and fluids at hundreds of points inside a processing plant •Design and construction of much automatically controlled equipment •Use of large-scale analog computers to unravel complicated kinetic system problems •The devising of methods to achieve optimum performance in industrial technology
AUTOMATIC ASSEMBLY AUTOMATION Automation is basically the delegation of human control function to technical equipment for: • • • •
Increasing Productivity Increasing Quality Reducing Cost Increasing Safety in working conditions
AUTOMATIC ASSEMBLY AUTOMATION Automation is the use of control systems in concert with other applications of information technology to control industrial machinery and processes, reducing the need for human intervention. In the scope of industrialization, automation is a step beyond mechanization. Whereas mechanization provided human operators with machinery to assist them with the muscular requirements of work, automation greatly reduces the need for human sensory and mental requirements as well. Processes and systems can also be automated

DESIGN Engineering Design and Control System Design
Roque, Jeremias Jr P
DESIGN ENGINEERING DESIGN is the central task of an engineer wherein, DESIGN is defined as the process of conceiving or inventing the forms, parts, and details of a system to achieve a reasoned purpose. The design steps are: a) determine a need arising from values of groups, covering the spectrum from public policy makers to the consumer, b) specify in detail what the solution to that need must be and to embody these values, c) develop and evaluate various alternative solutions, and d) decide which is to be designed in detail and fabricated.
DESIGN Specifications are statements that explicitly state what the device or product is to be and do. Design specifications rests on four characteristics: • Complexity of Design, results from the wide range of tools, issues, and knowledge to be used in the process • Trade-Off, involves the need to make a judgment about how much of a compromise can be made between two conflicting criteria, both of which are desirable • Gaps, the void between what is intended (or visualized) as the product or device and the actual, practical form of the final design • Risk, uncertainties embodied in the unintended consequences of the design
DESIGN In engineering design, two types of thinking must takes place: analysis and synthesis Analysis Synthesis, the process where new physical configurations are created Engineering design is not a linear process, it is an iterative, nonlinear, creative process.
DESIGN CONTROL SYSTEM DESIGN is the arrangement or the plan of the system structure and the selection of its suitable components and parameters. 1. Establish control goals 2. Identify the variables to control 3. Write the specifications for the variables 4. Establish the system configuration and identify the actuator 5. Obtain a model of the process, the actuator, and the sensor 6. Describe a controller and select key parameters to be adjusted 7. Optimize the parameters and analyze the performance
