ABOUT THE PROJECT

Kick-off conference, 15.04.2013, Sofia, Bulgaria

Specific objectives:

Main weaknesses:

1. To identify areas of common business interest and


thus strengthen territorial ties for raising economic synergy in the region.
2. To build capacity and pool expertise for setting up
joint business and project undertakings based on good
practices.
3. To enhance second-level cooperation (between
business-support organisations) as well as institutional
cooperation between educational/R&D and business
organisations.
4. To establish a cross-border mechanism for provision
of training and consultancy expertise in the area of ATM.

1. Weak capacity for business internationalisation,


2. The target CBC regions have less intensive businesssupport networks for increasing economic cooperation
as compared to other regions in Republic of Bulgaria
and Republic of Serbia.
3. Limited availability of financing - expensive loans, lack
of operational VC funds.
4. Low mobility of labour force.

Needs, strenghts, weaknesses and constraints of


the target group(s) and target region(s)
The problem addressed is the non-deployment of the
potential for CBC in the area of ATM, which by default is
highly innovative and competitive. Strengths of the sector: high R&D and commercial potential & highly educated work force.

the consortium in a well balanced mix;


it makes trainings needs assessment and provides
training tailored to the needs identified
it makes screening of the SMEs business requests
and business offers, on the grounds of which partnership opportunities are identified to best match business
demand and supply;
the matching process is facilitated by

1. a web-based collaboration platform and

2. business advice by the ATM Expert Council
both of them meant to sustain and extend

their operation beyond project life;
A market study of third markets will be made to identify market niches where business cooperation and
partnerships shall have the potential to further expand.
Continuity and impact of the above approach is spelled
out in Partnership Agreements for joint business, R&D
or manufacturing projects between companies on the
two sides of the border. The business support organisations members of the ATM consortium shall build
capacity on project cycle management and on delivery
of qualitative business-support services to their client
SMEs.

Brief description of the project strategy


The project concept was generated on the basis of
the partners in-depth knowledge and understanding
of the SMEs needs. To address the above-mentioned
strengths and weaknesses in the ATM domain, along
with the need for deploying the existing potential for
joint business initiatives along the border, the ATM Integration project adopts a demand-driven businessbased approach:
it deploys the potential of both the research and the
business communities by having them represented on

WHAT IS
MECHATRONICS
by Prof. Todor Neshkov
Technical University - Sofia

Mechatronics is a discipline which integrates mechanics, electronics and computer technologies to enhance
the performance of products, systems and processes.
Typical products exemplifying the approach are camcorders, computer disc drives, industrial robots and
motor cars.
Perhaps the simplest definition of mechatronics is that
it is a branch of engineering that deals with combined
mechanical, electronic and software systems. The elements of mechatronics systems include sensors, actuators, microcontrollers (or microprocessors) and realtime control software. The actuators are mainly high
precision electric motors and solenoids. Any of a large
number of sensor types are used according to the intended application, including light, acceleration, weight,
colour, temperature and image. One of the features
which distinguishes mechatronic systems or products
from earlier electromechanical systems or products is
the replacement of some mechanical functions with
electronic and software ones. This results in much
22

greater flexibility of both design and operation. Another


feature is the increased speed and precision of performance. A third is the ability to conduct automated data
collection and reporting. In addition, advanced mechatronics systems now have the ability to implement
distributed control in complex systems. Mechatronics
systems are used in a large and growing range of applications. Examples include robots, industrial production
machinery, cameras and computer disk drives.
Japan has played an important role in the establishment and development of the field of mechatronics. For
example, the term mechatronics was first coined in
Japan. It was initially used in the late 1960s at Yaskawa
Electric Company Ltd in reference to the application of
electronic control of the companys electric motors. This
term remains popular in Japan, where it usually refers
to a fusion of mechanical parts and a broadly defined
electronics (i.e., including semiconductor control devices, sensors and optoelectronic devices). Japan is the
worlds largest producer and user of industrial robots.

It is also the top manufacturer and user of many kinds


of advanced mechatronics systems for industrial production applications. Japan is also the largest volume
producer of many types of mechatronic components,
including high-performance motors and CCD image
sensors. And it ranks at or near the top in developing
and producing microcontrollers and digital signal processors for these applications.
The term mechatronics has also been widely used in
continental Europe for many years. Although it has been
slow to gain acceptance as a distinct field of study and
practice in the US and UK, its growing acceptance
worldwide is evidenced by the rising number of undergraduate and postgraduate university courses now being offered.
There has always been a close relationship between
mechatronics and robotics, and, in fact, many engineers contend that the former grew out of the latter. A
number of innovations that were first applied to robotics were subsequently applied to other types of high

WHAT IS MECHATRONICS
performance machinery. Examples include sensory
feedback and the coordination of movements, both
of which made robots more flexible and increased
productivity. Mechatronics technology has continued to advance rapidly since the coining of this term.
These advances are concerned largely with precision,
speed, durability, miniaturization, flexibility, safety,
power consumption, intelligence and cost. This is the
result of the swift progress in all of the components
and technologies of mechatronics systems, including
actuators, sensors, microcontrollers and software as
well as materials science, fuzzy logic, lasers, communications, kinematics, machine vision and virtual
reality.
One simple way of viewing the development of mechatronics is to look at some of the major technologies that have been added and representative applications for each decade.
In the 1970s, mechatronics was concerned mainly
with servo technology for use in such products such
as automatic focus cameras, automatic door openers
and vending machines.
During the 1980s it became commonplace to add microcontrollers to mechanical systems in order to further improve their performance, reduce size and cut
costs. High growth applications during that decade
included computer disk drives, numerically controlled
machine tools, industrial robots, automobile engines
and antilock braking systems.
A feature of the 1990s was the growing incorporation
of communications technology, thus making possible
systems which could be connected in large networks.
An important trend throughout the short history of
mechatronics has been the continued miniaturization
of components and systems. In fact, some systems
have become so small that they can be built into a
single silicon chip (inclusive of sensor, actuator and

control circuitry) using advanced semiconductor production processes. An example is tiny deceleration
measurement devices that can trigger air bags in automobiles.
Another major trend has been a the rapid growth in
the application of optoelectronic components, including sensing devices (such as CCD image sensors and
LED-based object and distance sensors), activators
(lasers which replace electromechanical activators for
processing materials), communications systems (optical fiber and LEDs for linking subsystems) and display
devices (LCD, fluorescent, plasma and other display
modes) which are widely used nowadays in digital
cameras, computer displays, TV-s, cars.
In spite of the rapid progress that has been made and
the emergence of whole new classes of products, not
everyone is convinced that mechatronics should be
considered as a distinct new field of engineering. This
is because mechatronics is an evolutionary rather
than a revolutionary development. It is just a natural
progression to incorporate sensors, microcontrollers
and other advanced electronic components into mechanical products now that they have become so inexpensive and small that they can be put into even
the cheapest and tiniest of products. Some engineers
point out that the term mechatronics, while once an
appropriate updating of the term electromechanics,
has itself now become somewhat of a misnomer. This
is because the field has swiftly incorporated advances
from a growing number of other fields, and the share
(measured in terms of function, cost, etc.) of mechanical components in individual systems continues to
decrease. Indeed, mechatronics is increasingly incorporating every aspect of engineering. Perhaps the real
key to a system or a product being a mechatronics
one is that it contains moving mechanical parts.

Cooperation with international companies to conquer new markets.

Rommtech-3S Ltd.
Title offer
Bringing of patented LED module and
other LED products successfully to market.
Abstract of the offer
Rommtech-3S has recently patented one
of the LED module and is seeking for a
company to jointly implement on the market this module, which has proven characteristics and outstanding performance.
Also need to widen the market positions
of the other LED lamps on the international market.
Description of the offer
The patented module is designed to be
integrated in standard grid lamps. With
equivalent dimensions the T8/T5 LED
produces the same amount of light with
savings of up to 55% of electricity. The
module features unique construction, integrated mirror optics, high efficiency diffuser and the latest LED technology with
efficiency up to 110 lm/W and is completely compatible with all 24Vdc (36 Vdc
optional) LED power supplies.
Due to the high uniformity of the emitted
light and the low overall brightness, T8/
T5 LED is applicable where the unified
glare rating is of importance: schools, offices, hospitals, working halls. Containing
no mercury, lead, or glass, LED modules
do not present risk of area contamina-

tion that is possible with fluorescent lamp


breakage.
Benefits
Excellent total cost of ownership with
attractive payback times.
No annoying noises, vibrations and
flickering.
Unified Glare Rating is lower or equal to
fluorescent tube.
Long-life LEDs (with an average rated
lifetime of 70 000 - 100 000 hours) reduce the maintenance and product replacement costs that are associated with
fluorescent systems.
Significant sustainability opportunity
due to lower energy consumption, reduced waste and elimination of hazardous substances such as mercury and
lead.
Overall, the usage of LEDs helps to reduce the internal heating in the premisses.
100% efficiency - directed light which
guarantees that all of the luminosity goes
where you need it.

Title offer
Mobile robotized wireless platform.
Abstract of the offer
Development of a kind of autonomous

mobile robots, intended for work and


adaptive perception in unknown and
unstructured environment. The way of
locomotion is wheel/chain-driven, with
electro drive mechanisms, sensors and
end effectors. Modular system for the
mechanical construction of the mobile
robots is proposed. Electronic module
for the wireless communication on the
base of ZIgBee as well as the specific
software are developed.
Description of the offer
The objective are robots, dedicated for
multisensory environment perception
and exploration, like measurements
and samples taking, discovering and
putting a mark on the objects as well
as environment interactions transportation, carrying in and out of equipment
and objects. The areas of application
are: scientific investigations, environmental monitoring, antiterrorism protection, suspicious objects manipulations.
Title request
Modules for mechanics, drives and
electronics using in mobile robots.
Abstract of the request
Mobile platforms (with or without manipulators) can use for investigation
purposes transport of measuring
units, taking of samples, etc. Other
aspect is the investigation of environ-

mental parameters (air, water, soil) for


its protecting. Mobile systems can also
be used for observation in harmful and
dangerous conditions. Important application area is suspicious objects detecting and handling. One of the most
frequent methods of terrorist attacks is
leaving explosives in unattended objects (cars, luggage, bags etc.). An effective solution could be found in robotics. Robots have been credited with
saving countless lives in war zones and
various dangerous areas (explosives,
radiation etc).
Description of the request
The tasks execution of a mobile robotic
system is stable moving on getting or
choosing trajectory, and also execution
of ordered operations on the trace or
in the target point. The operations execution is a task for the control system
of the manipulator, based on the platform. The control system of the platform solves other problems - jumping
over the roughness and avoiding the
obstacles. The task for avoiding the
obstacles is a task for image recognition and changing the trajectory. More
interesting is the situation with avoiding the obstacles. The main question
here is (except the servo and the steer
control), the stability of the mobile robotized platform against overturning in
roughness terrain conditions, declination when overcoming of the obstacles,
etc.

Making top quality software is no longer enough to be the most desired and

preferred supplier. Being the best in one


sphere turns to be quite insufficient if you
do not have equally good business partners. OmegaSoft Ltd. would not have
reached its position on the Bulgarian
market were it not for our highly-qualified employees. So we dedicate a lot of
resources to regular training and qualification programs to maintain and further
improve our associates skills and knowledge.
Other needs necessary for future
organizations development
We aim to establish close working relationships with like-minded companies
who understand the importance of process integration for the future of business.

working range and increasing the resolution in nano-range. The micromanipulator is actuated by stack piezo-actuators that are suitable for micro and nano
manipulations because of their high dynamics. The proposer has applied for
a patent. There is a real physical robot
available for demonstration.
The innovative aspect of the robotic system is that it allows full automation of the
micro and nano manipulation process as
cell injection thus increasing the productivity and decrease the potential damage
of the injected cell. The advantage is that
the operator will be out of the working
process thus increasing the accuracy,
repeatability and success rate. The other
advantage is the possibility to move the
