Aims :

The course aims to provide basic knowledge for design and use of measurement systems for testing and quality control, based on digital devices for data acquisition and processing. The course treats technical issues concerning industrial diagnostics for quality control and maintenance.

Topics :

Introduction to measurement systems for qualità control.
Digital acquisition systems: main architecture and electronic components.
Introduction to graphic languages for programmino virtual instruments and for driving digital equipment.
Elements of reliability, maintenance and relationships with quality control.
Industrial diagnostics. Elements of basic algorithms, fuzzy logic and neural networks for quality control.
Examples of diagnostic systems for conformity assessment. Exampels of industrial tests benches for on-line quality control.
