  • Entropy test

  • Testing reactions to different signals

  • Visual error test, measurement of eye fatigue

  • Optometry test

  • Testing visual stimuli

  • Testing people's mobility

This laboratory aims to provide students with educational, research, and research services. For this purpose, the faculty offers up-to-date and standard equipment. In this laboratory, students can get acquainted with different methods of making and producing parts while working with various equipment to compare the advantages and disadvantages of these methods. The following experiments are conducted in this laboratory:

  • General Machines

    This laboratory works with general machines, which include lathes, milling machines, drills, grinding machines, and crank saws. These devices are controlled manually and cannot connect to a computer, but they can be controlled by advanced computer software. Working with these production machines helps students learn how they work, understand their advantages and disadvantages while making different parts, and eventually use these devices to optimize parts production lines.

  • Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machines and their software

    Unlike the machines described in the previous section, CNC machines work automatically and are computerized. Students learn to work with these machines and computer software related to them, i.g. g-code machine language, CAD, CAM, and WIN NC software, to design parts and make them using CNC machines. Finally, students compare CNC machinery with general machines.

  • Industrial Robots

    Students learn how robots work, observe their role in industrial automation, and generally learn about the features, advantages, and disadvantages of using them in parts production lines. Students are first introduced to programming and working with robots; then, they learn to work with robots to communicate with each other in the form of laboratory production systems. All the robots in the lab are Movemaster EX 5 degrees of freedom robots, all of whose joints are Revolute type.

  • PLC logical control systems

    Programmable logic controllers, or PLCs, play a fundamental role in industrial automation systems. After learning the principles of programming and setting up these controllers, students in the logical control systems laboratory use them in laboratory production lines and systems and close different pneumatic circuits. This experiment helps industrial engineering students to learn about the benefits of using controllers and use them in the design of various production lines.

  • Mechanical Tests

    It is essential to know the mechanical properties of materials in different stages of manufacturing and production of parts, such as design, production, and quality control stages. In this regard, the production method laboratory has the equipment to perform three mechanical tests: impact, hardness, and torsion. Students can compare the quality of the product in different production methods while learning how to perform these tests.

  • Internet of Things (IOT) Lab

    The activities of this laboratory include:

    1. Providing an experimental platform for collecting information from the physical world.

    2. Transferring them to the control center.

    3. Processing data

    This lab is equipped with devices to monitor energy consumption, sensors of environmental parameters such as humidity, temperature, etc., and the necessary communication infrastructure. While conducting experimental and research activities in the Internet of Things, students in this laboratory simulate smart factories, cities, agriculture, etc., on a smaller scale and gain experience in this field.

  • FMS and Modular Production Systems

    The main feature of flexible manufacturing systems (FMS) is their diversity and flexibility in production and automation. These systems usually use four types of equipment:

    1. Numerical control (NC) machines and CNC computer numerical control

    2. Automatic parts transportation systems

    3. Coordination of computer control systems

    4. Components such as measuring apparatus, washing, etc.

    In modular production systems, the production process happens in multiple cells, where each cell performs a specific activity in testing, processing, control, assembling, etc. In the laboratory of production methods, with the provision of equipment for these two types of production systems, it has become possible to carry out research activities in this field.
