  1. What is Mechatronics? • The portmanteau "Mechatronics" was first coined by Mr. Tetsuro Mori, a senior engineer of the Japanese company Yaskawa, in 1969. • Mechatronics may alternatively be referred to as "electromechanical systems" or less often as "control and automation engineering".

  2. What is Mechatronics? The integrated design of products and processes that include mechanical and electrical components under intelligent control. • Underlying products are physical in nature: • Sensors and Actuators are used to interface with these products. • There is "intelligence" through imbedded computing capability. All these processes are highly integrated into sophisticated products and processes. Electromechanical Hydraulic Magnetic, etc

  3. Mechatronics

  4. Circuit Breakers Automatically operated electrical switch designed to protect an electrical circuit from damaged caused by overload or a short circuit.

  5. Circuit Breakers Features vary based largely on voltage class, current rating, and the type of circuit breaker. Common Features: 1. Detect a fault 2. Act upon the fault 3. Control the arc 4. Reclose the contacts

  6. 1. Detect A Fault • Low current and/or voltage circuit breaker: occurs within the breaker enclosure • High current and/or voltage circuit breaker:
