Talk about my understanding of industrial automation

Automation involves many disciplines, whether it is mechanical or electrical, automation involves motors, mechanisms, analog electrical, digital, single-chip, programming, algorithms, control theory, finite element analysis, etc., from traditional industrial control to PLC, from ordinary servo The application to CNC machine tools, from robots to artificial intelligence, from embedded operating systems to dedicated systems, involves too many fields, and in this large field, no matter what direction we develop in, it is not a deviation. This is the advantage of automation. So, as long as you want to work hard, you can become a bull in any direction!

What are the industrial software?

Industrial software refers to software used in the industrial field, including systems, applications, middleware, embedded, etc. Generally speaking, industrial software is divided into programming languages, system software, application software, and middleware in between. The system software provides the most basic functions for computer use, but it is not aimed at a specific application field. The application software is just the opposite. Different application software provides different functions according to the users and the fields they serve.

The product system design

The extremely complex research object is called a system, that is, an organic whole with specific functions combined by several components of interaction and interdependence, and this system is also a component of a larger system to which it belongs.

Reliability-based design optimization (RBDO)

Reliability measures generally have three types: reliability, failure-free rate, and failure rate. The study of reliability issues was developed during the Second World War to deal with the unreliability of electronic products. The research on reliability design used in machinery began in the 1960s and was first applied to military and aerospace industries, and then gradually expanded to civil industries.
