Course abstract

The goal of the study subject is to form deeper insight about place and meaning of technical diagnosis into undivided system of technical service of machines, acquire basic theoretical and practical principles of acquirements of technical diagnosis of up-to-day machines. Acquire methods of prognostication of resource of machines.

Learning outcomes and their assessment


Knowledge: about changes of technical condition of machinery during exploitation and about control of exploitation parameters; about handling of acquired information and utilization of it for forecasting of working capacity of machinery.
Skills: to choose and to exploit resources of diagnostics in detection process of functionality, labour resource and deeper defects.
Competence: acquired knowledge and skills gives possibility rapidly and accurately find defects of machinery operation, to define generation reasons, to elevate labour safety of them.
