Tell Some Advantages And Limitations Of Mechatronics?

1.	Tell Some Advantages And Limitations Of Mechatronics?
Answer» Advantages: Products produced are cost effective and of very GOOD quality. The performance CHARACTERISTICS of mechatronics products are such which are otherwise very difficult to achieve without the synergistic combination. High degree of FLEXIBILITY. A mechatronics product can be better than just sum of its parts. Greater extent of machine utilisation. Due to the integration of sensors and control systems in a complex system, CAPITAL expenses are reduced Owing to the incorporation of intelligent, self correcting sensory and FEEDBACK systems, the mechatronic approach results in - greater productivity - higher quantity and producing reliability. Disadvantages : High initial cost of the system. Imperative to have knowledge of different engineering fields for design and implementation. Specific problems for various systems will have to be addressed separately and properly. It is expensive to incorporate mechatronics approach to an existing/old system. Advantages: Disadvantages :
