Every topic is built from first principles and finished with real numbers. You will size a motor from its RMS torque, tune a PID loop and check its phase margin, set a light curtain’s safety distance, and verify a safety function against ISO 13849-1, with every step and unit shown.
Inside, you will learn how to:
- Model mechanical, electrical, and fluid systems with transfer functions and state space
- Select gears, ball screws, belts, bearings, and couplings, and match load inertia to the motor
- Design signal-conditioning, filtering, and isolation circuits for real sensors
- Choose and apply encoders, load cells, thermocouples, RTDs, and proximity sensors
- Size and drive DC, stepper, brushless, and induction motors, from H-bridges to VFDs
- Specify hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders, valves, and power units
- Sample, quantize, filter, and analyze signals without aliasing
- Write deterministic microcontroller firmware with timers, interrupts, and watchdogs
- Program PLCs in ladder, function block, structured text, and SFC, and lay out NFPA 79 control panels
- Analyze stability with root locus, Bode, and Nyquist methods, and tune PID loops by proven methods
- Plan motion profiles, tune cascaded servo loops, and solve robot kinematics
- Apply Modbus, CAN, EtherCAT, PROFINET, OPC UA, and IEC 62443 security to networked machines
- Run ISO 12100 risk assessments, verify performance levels and SILs, and apply NFPA 70E and lockout/tagout
Why this book works:
- 354 worked examples with every step and unit shown
- 561 practice problems, each with a boxed answer, and an answer appendix covering all of them
- 50 precise technical figures, plus learning objectives and summaries in every chapter
- Grounded in the standards US engineers work to: NFPA 79, NFPA 70, NFPA 70E, ISO 13849-1, IEC 61131-3, IEC 61508, ANSI/RIA R15.06, and ISA/IEC 62443
- A capstone design of a complete automated pick-and-place cell that brings motion, control, networking, safety, and reliability together
- One connected framework with consistent notation and cross-references between chapters
- A complete reference section: list of symbols, a 147-term glossary, unit conversions, Laplace and z-transform tables, component selection data, and an 830-entry index
Written for mechanical, electrical, controls, and automation engineers who design, integrate, or maintain automated machinery. It also serves engineers moving into mechatronics from a single discipline, and upper-level engineering students who want a practical reference that goes beyond the classroom.
Stop designing one discipline at a time. Scroll up and click “Buy Now” to build machines whose mechanics, electronics, control, and safety work as a single system from the first requirement.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
