Industrial Automated Systems: Instrumentation and Motion Control, 1st Edition

Industrial Automated Systems: Instrumentation and Motion Control, will provide your students with state-of-the art coverage of the full spectrum of industrial maintenance and control, from servomechanisms to instrumentation. The book also offers your students a broader coverage of industrial maintenance and automation information than other books currently available, and features an extensive collection of supplements, including a lab manual, and two hundred animated multimedia lessons on CD.

This comprehensive resource teaches students about components, circuits, instruments, control techniques, calibration, tuning and programming associated with industrial automated systems. The book also focuses on operation, rather than mathematical design concepts, and has been formatted into sections so that it can be used for a variety of courses, such as electrical motors, sensors, variable speed drives, programmable logic controllers, servomechanisms, and various instrumentation and process classes.

A supplemental Instructor Resource provides you with valuable teaching tools including a computerized testbank, power point and an Instructor's Manual. 720 pp.

Features:

• Contains two hundred animated multimedia lessons on the Lab Manual CD, identified by icons throughout the book as Learning Objects, to enhance your student's comprehension of the materials presented in the book.
• Ensures relevancy because content is informed by industrial equipment technical literature, professional seminars, engineering consultants, and industrial schools.
• Provides your students with completely updated information on both motion and process control that ensures that the entire spectrum of industrial automation is addressed.
• New innovations in industrial automation such as wireless technology and industrial networking are covered.
