3.8   Applications

Here, some practical real-life automation examples are considered in order to increase the knowl-

edge of designing automation circuits and applying the same principles in similar electromechani-

cal projects. Up to this point it has been assumed that the reader has a sufficient background in 

designing automation circuits, and that we will only provide a general description of the automa-

tion design. In contrast, the automation problem will be briefly described with respect to the 

operational requirements, and the full automation circuit will be provided.
