Mechatronic System Design

Mechatronic Design Approach

Eng. Hamza Hassan Karshe


Faculty of Mechanical Engineering
SOMALI NATIONAL UNIVERSITY
Gaheyr Campus
Content
• Product Development and Product Planning
• Design Philosophy
• Conventional vs. Mechatronic Design Process
• Design Project
Product Development

• A set of activities in developing a product


• Starts with market study
• Ends production and sale

(Ulrich K.T. and Eppinger S.D., 2003,


Product Design and Development )

Design Process
Product Development
Successful product development based on:
• Product Quality
• Product Cost
• Development Time
• Development Cost
• Development Capability
Product Lifecycle

When do we introduce a new developed product?

Product Planning
The five-step of product planning
Product Planning
• Mission statement about a product include:
• Brief description of the product
• Key business goals
• Target market
• Assumption and constraint
• Stakeholders
Product Planning
Example: Cordless Screwdrivers
Design Philosophy
• What is design?
• Broad meaning, and used by all…
• Classifies as:
• Industrial design (aesthetic)
• Engineering design (functionality)
• Examples: songwriter, fashion designer, policy maker
• In engineering a design develop a new product,
process or system
Design Philosophy
Industrial design Engineering design
• Physical appearance • Functionality
• Style • Specification and
• Proportion and balance objective
• Colour and contrast • Systematic
• Unity
Design Philosophy
Abstract & aesthetic Function & aesthetic
Engineering Design Types
Pahl and Beitz, 1988 Dieter, 1991
• Original design (from 4- • One-of-a-kind design
bar mechanism to wiper) (prototype)
• Design for mass
• Adaptive design production. (handphone)
(Automatic gear box, • Large, expensive system
CVT) design (factory)
• Design to code (boiler,
• Variant design (Conveyor gears, nuts & bolts)
sizing, gear ratio)
Mechatronic Design Approach
• Part of engineering design with specific scope
covering mechatronic systems, components an
products.
• Conventional approach
• Sequential & design by
discipline
• Problem passed to next
discipline?
Mechatronic Design Approach
• Part of engineering design with specific scope
covering mechatronic systems, components an
products.
• Conventional approach Mechatronic approach
(concurrent approach)
Mechatronic Design Approach

• With 3 design stages


– Conceptual design
– Embodiment design
– Production
Stage 1: Conceptual design

• Initiating design – potential solution – best


concept
• Highly creative process & requires coordination
• Consists of:
– Customer need identification
– Problem definition (Goal/Specification)
– Gathering Information (Literature Survey)
– Concept generation
– Concept selection
Stage 2: Embodiment design

• Preliminary design – ‘skeleton’


• After this stage, only minor design modification
• Consists of:
– product architecture – subsystem and its
relation
– configuration design of part and components
– mathematical modeling and simulation
– sensors and actuators selection
– controller design
Stage 2: Embodiment design

• Prototyping
– approximation of a product
– Proof of concept
– E.g sketch, model, 3D drawing or fully functional
product

• Stage 3: production
Design project

• Should be a customer and demonstrable mark


• Should not be too complicated
• Should not be your FYP!
• Group project but individual assessment
• 5 per group
Design Scenarios (example)

• Automated Teller Machines (ATM) security


• Automated Teller Machines (ATM) have always been viewed as "easy picks"
for desperate crooks. And it beats the mind how banks and commercial
centres have been lackadaisical on the security of these ATMs that have
such huge amounts of cash in them.
• There have been numerous reports of ATM break-ins recently. One was
when burglars armed with sledgehammers and oxy-acetylene torches made
off with RM126, 000 from an ATM in Taman Miharja. In another incident in
Johor Baru, thieves made off with RM400, 000 after breaking open two
ATMs at a shopping centre. Banks and commercial centres cannot rely on
technology alone to safeguard their premises.
• Students are expected to design and develop an engineering solution
considering ethic, sustainability, environmental and safety issues.
Milestones

• Registration Wk 3/4
• Report 1 : Need and Specification Development
Wk 10
• Report 2: Conceptual Design
Wk 14
• Project management, teamwork. etc
Report 1: Need and
Specification Development
• Project proposal including the problem statement
• The proposal should:
• Demonstrate understanding of the problem
• Convince that the team has a plan and ideas to solve
the problem
• Need Identification, interview potential customers or
questionnaire to demonstrate market or customer base
• Specification development
