Devices to operate in production. Pneumatic handling. Hydraulic equipment for handling. Magnetic devices for handling. Electrical devices for handling. Combined devices for handling. Logic devices for handling. Manipulating and handling equipment and systems. The issue of handling the material. The basic terms used in handling, transport and storage. Analysis and design process with material handling. Classification and characteristics manipulacionih and vehicles. Calculation of the amount of material transported by manipulating means. Basic concepts and systematization of transport vehicles and systems. Belt conveyors. Joint conveyors. Catenary conveyors. Roller conveyors. Vibratory conveyors. Machinery for handling-crushers, saws, presses, classifiers, magnets, vibrators. Designing systems to handle. Optimal case handling systems. Automation processes the system design.

Lectures are realized interactively through lectures, auditory, laboratory and computer practical classes. In lectures theoretical part is presented with characteristic examples for better understanding of subject content. In auditory practical classes, characteristical exercises are covererd. Acquired knowledge is practically applied in laboratory practical classes using avalilable laboratory equipment. Apart from lectures and practical classes, consultations are held regularly.
