EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Strategic objectives The most important objective of the Regional University Knowledge Centre of Mechatronic and Logistic Systems is to contribute to the development of new products and new technologies and thus to the economic revival of the region in the fields of mechatronics and logistics relying on and improving the knowledge basis existing at the University of Miskolc, at other institutions and research centres in the region, and in cooperation with the major companies of the region. The Regional University Knowledge Centre wishes to achieve this objective first of all by performing applied research and development activities of international standard, by integrating and improving the existing professional expertise, by concentrating the research and development infrastructure and by promoting the involvement of enterprises. Its activities contribute to improving the standard of teaching and training in the higher education institutions of the region, and by involving young undergraduates and doctoral students in the research work, it will promote the scientific training of the new generation. It will make a contribution to the innovation and business approach gaining more ground in higher education and to the strengthening of the practice-oriented nature of both research and training. It will perform the above processes in close cooperation with the companies of the region and make efforts for creating new jobs via the expansion and establishment of companies utilising the research results. The structure of the program The research programs have been established to meet the demand of the reviving and newly established companies in the region. The research and development work takes place in three major fields. The research programs related to the world of products will produce results in the development of intelligent components and products, in the construction of structures and in increasing the life of products. The research related to materials and technologies is involved in material combinations and their production as well as various mechatronic technologies. In the program of intelligent systems research is done in the fields of industrial automation, intelligent drives and logistic systems with remarkable results. It is a welcome development that young academic staff, PhD students and undergraduates have become involved in the research and development activities. Industrial cooperation The consortium establishing the Regional Knowledge Centre has been joined by the major companies involved in mechatronics and logistics in the region, and they have developed a close cooperation in its framework with the research centres of the University of Miskolc and the institutions in the surrounding area. It is a pleasure for us to be cooperating with such leading companies involved in mechatronics as the Bosch companies or the Electrolux Lehel Kft.. In the fields of materials and technologies we have found such leading partners to cooperate with as PREC-CAST Öntödei Kft. and Tiszai Vegyi Kombinát Rt. In logistics the experience and collaboration of the experts of Borsod Volán Személyszállítási Rt. provide assistance in the research and development work. It is again a welcome development that we have been able to establish active and fruitful cooperation with the small and medium-sized enterprises of the region, through which the Regional Knowledge Centre can contribute to improving the innovation activities of the small and medium-sized enterprises. There is an efficient and stable cooperation with the Employment and Economic Association of Northern Hungary (Észak-magyarországi Munkaadói és Gazdasági Közösség) and with the Foundation of Enterprise Development in the Zemplén Region (Zempléni Regionális Vállalkozásfejlesztési Alapítvány). Utilisation of research results The research and development work done in the framework of the Regional Knowledge Centre are definitely application-oriented, however, the program makes it also possible to perform basic research that provides the theoretical foundations for application-oriented research linked to the products, technologies and systems. Since the research and development work is done in close cooperation with companies, its utilisation will directly appear in production via the development of new products and the elaboration and introduction of techniques and processes. It is a pleasure to see how fast the research close to life is incorporated in the new products through the good cooperation established with the companies. In addition, it is only natural that, as expected, the researchers working at the university and in other research centres have published their major research results in research reports and scientific papers and have presented them at conferences so as to enhance the scientific and technical achievements of their fields, thus contributing to the development of industrial culture. Personnel background We have succeeded in inviting representatives of the profession with national and international reputation working in the region to direct the research activities and they are efficiently organising the research and development work. The regular weekly sessions of the smaller body responsible for managing the research - the Operative Board - have provided efficient contributions to solving the basic problems that have arisen. We are proud of the fact that the results achieved so far have attracted international interest from the profession and following the recommendations by Professor Dr.-Ing.habil dr.h.c. Manfred Hiller and Professor Dr.-Ing. Dieter Schramm, we are working on the establishment of a joint German-Hungarian basis in mechatronics in cooperation with the University of Duisburg-Essen. After several rounds of talks in Miskolc and Duisburg, advanced negotiations were held with senior representatives of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research in Bonn on 25-26 August 2005. We hope that through the good offices of the two German professors, our traditionally good cooperation with German partners can be further expanded.

Overview The objective of the program is to elaborate testing methods for the manufacturing and development processes of mechatronic products. According to the industrial partners' requirements, the research concerns the development of computer-based high-resolution and high-fidelity measurement and testing devices, processes and methods suitable for sensing electrical and non-electrical quantities. Our objective is to provide research and development support to the SMEs of the region so that they can meet the quality requirements for suppliers by re-structuring, automating, developing, and systemising the existing testing systems; by introducing new manufacturing technologies (e.g. environment-friendly welding technologies) and measuring technology (testing and diagnostics) systems. Key activities In the course of elaborating the development concept of the micro-camera system for monitoring critical electronic manufacturing processes, a comprehensive analysis was prepared about the technical specifications of various micro-cameras, the adjustment options of the focal distance and the iris, a technical analysis was made of the adjustment of exposition, relative opening and colour, as well as the clamping of the cameras, examining the use of vacuum, magnetic and individual moving mechanisms. The research into the development of the production supervision and diagnostic system of high-pressure casting machinery looked into the structure, installation and testing of the foundry monitoring and quality control server, into connecting the measurement supervision systems of three foundry halls to the database of the server, as well as designing the diagnostic system of the foundy equipment. Virtual testing methods were developed for testing electronic circuits and connections, and troubleshooting research was done to determine the operation parameters of the virtual tester, as well as to explore the application possibilities of the corporate Ethernet networks for measurement technological purposes. In the framework of the development of measurement equipment for the long-term testing of the downtime of electric hand tools, the research team investigated the construction of the sensor system of the testing facility, the determination of the parameters of the testing process and development of the software controlling the automatic testing process. Research was done to examine the disturbances caused by high-performance industrial electronic equipment and the network repercussions endangering operational safety, to analyse the disturbances arising in specific nodes of the network (consumer areas), to find the faulty or malfunctioning electronic equipment (industrial production facilities) causing the harmful disturbances. Major achievements A study was written on the technical requirements of visual signal and data transmission and processing (transmission speed, band width, amount of data), on the applicability of industrial visual image transmission systems for specific tasks, and the application possibilities of wired (industrial Ethernet, PROFIBUS/ASI) and wireless (Bluetooth, WIFI) industrial communications systems. The research team designed, built and tested the new type of foundry diagnostic system based on force and moment measurement. The measurement methods for the virtual testing of electronic circuits were developed and documented in book form, the operational parameters of the virtual testing facility were determined and two testing systems operating on an Ethernet network were developed. The measuring equipment for investigating the downtime of hedge trimmers and chain saws was constructed and is ready for laboratory testing. Under actual industrial conditions electric network measurements were made, the faults were registered and evaluated. The network disturbance effects of the large industrial consumers operating in the region of Northern Hungary were identified, together with the probable causes of voltage distortion, fluctuation and vibration. Further steps The development of methods for testing non-electrical quantities under industrial conditions will be continued in accordance with industrial demand. Based on the development experience, the process control of the equipment for measuring downtime is recommended to be developed further. Both the energy supplier and the industry using the energy show increasing interest in the investigation and research into the disturbances of electrical networks, therefore we wish to develop further our testing methods and the hardware and software surfaces of the devices used for the research.

ACADEMIC AND TRAINING PROGRAM Research results as reflected in the curriculum The academic staff members directly involved in the research have been continuously incorporating the topics of their research in the curriculum, depending on progress of the research in time: formulating the practical problems; presenting models and methods; presenting the results. Completing the first stage of the research, its summing up and publication provide an opportunity for students not directly attached to a particular member of staff to gain access to the knowledge involved in the research topics and for other academic members not involved in the research to develop their teaching materials. Involving students in the research work More than 40 undergraduates were involved in the elaboration of the various projects. The scope of their activities covered data collection in the companies, computerised data processing, testing calculation models and the preparatory work of measurements. Activities in the Students' Scientific Societies, complex design assignments, thesis work 4 students are writing a paper for the Students' Scientific Society, out of which the papers of two will be presented at the 2005 Conference of the Students' Scientific Society of the University of Miskolc; MLR-RET has founded a special prize for the best paper for Students' Scientific Society on mechatronics and logistics, respectively; 12 undergraduates are writing their complex design assignments in connection with the research topics, which will be developed into thesis work; several students spent their summer industrial placements with the consortium partners, assisting in testing the research results, in making the solution versions more accurate, and in preparing the company staff for the continuous utilisation of the research results. It is anticipated that some undergraduates will find employment with the consortium partners, and 2-3 students wish to be involved in the research work as Ph.D. students in the future. Deepening the relations with the undergraduates may contribute to reducing the number of young graduates wishing to leave the region.

The Knowledge Centre has taken on a major role in supporting Ph.D. and postdoctoral students. This is particularly true regarding the employment of postdoctoral students, for it provides students with an opportunity for continuing their research work while remaining within the institution. Their employment is also beneficial for the Knowledge Centre in turn, since their experience gained in research contributes to raising the standards of the elaboration of the research topics. In-company advanced training events The research results achieved are presented in great detail to our industrial partners in courses of 4-8 hours. In this way the utilisation of the research results can be significantly speeded up. Courses are being planned to be held after the utilisation of the results with the purpose of evaluating the results achieved, and of discussing the potentials for their further development. Long-term impact The continuous integration of the research results in the curriculum and their utilisation in an ever increasing scope involves the following areas: developing the curriculum of practice oriented-linear training; increasing the range of optional courses; introducing specialisations in response to demand; involving practising professionals in education and training. These processes are promoted by the following: our annual scientific publication (under the title Innovation and Knowledge in 2005); the Scientific Seminar held annually; the research summaries published on our website

TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER, UTILISATION OF THE RESEARCH RESULTS Technology transfer, utilisation of the research results MLR-RET regards it as its priority task to propagate the knowledge, new experience and technologies accumulated in the course of its research and development (R&D) activities (technology diffusion), to deliver them to the users (technology transfer) and to promote their application. In this activity MLR-RET relies on its cooperation partner: the Innovation and Technology Transfer Centre of the University of Miskolc. The achievements and research results obtained by the Knowledge Centre appear in the fields of development research, applied research and basic research as well. The possibilities and importance of technology transfer can be perceived in all the three research segments. It is often the case that results achieved in basic research launch a research topic on its way that will lead to marketable products, technologies or model systems. From the aspect of technology transfer, the segment of applied research carries the greatest significance. The majority of novelties appear in the form of analysis and examination, system design and control methods of novel systems, and only in a smaller rate are there new products and technologies created. Therefore, in order to promote technology transfer, it is of great importance that not only patents should be encouraged, but that the results should appear in the form of knowhow as well. Knowledge and technology transfer activities of the Knowledge Centre related to research projects are as follows: R&D results, Cooperation with industrial partners, Education and training programs, Publications.
