Learning outcomes of the course unit

The student understands the requirements on the safety of production machines and equipment and learns to apply the systematic and methodical approach to design, construction and applications of production machines and systems from the viewpoint of their safety.

Prerequisites

Knowledge of construction of production machines and their structure components.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

The course is taught through lectures explaining the basic principles and theory of the discipline. Exercises are focused on practical topics presented in lectures. In the frame of course are presented case studies focused on to causations and consquences of various technical disasters. According to the possibility of teaching can be organized lectures for students by practitioners and excursions to companies focused on activities related to the course content.
