机电一体化是机械、微电子技术的有机结合。近年来,世界各工业国家竞相发展。依靠机电一体化技术可大幅度提高产品性能、可靠性,增强产品的更新换代能力;节约大量能源、材料,并促进生产的柔性化和集成化。机电一体化技术将改变各部门的技术装备面貌,进而促进产品结构、产业结构、生产方式和管理体制的重大变化。机电一体化作为高技术的一部分,是当今世界机械工业技术和产品发展的重要趋向,也是我国机械工业发展的必由之路。一由机电一体化技术开发的产品,一般分三个层次:普及型、升级换代型以及机械与电子技术深度结合型。这三个层次的覆盖面很大,产品很多,其中升级换代型的一大部 Mechatronics is a mechanical, microelectronic technology, organic combination. In recent years, various industrial countries in the world have been competing for development. Rely on the mechatronics technology can greatly improve product performance, reliability, enhance product upgrading ability; save a lot of energy, materials, and promote the production of flexible and integrated. Mechatronics technology will change the face of all departments of technical equipment, and thus promote the product structure, industrial structure, production methods and major changes in management system. As a part of high technology, electromechanical integration is an important trend in the development of technology and products of the machinery industry in the world today and also the only way for the development of China’s machinery industry. A product developed by the mechatronic technology, generally divided into three levels: popular type, upgrading type and the depth of the combination of mechanical and electronic technology. The three levels of coverage is large, a lot of products, including upgrading a large part of the generation
