The present publication arises as a result of the cooperation between the Institute of Production Systems and Applied Mechanics (IPSAM), belonging to the Faculty of Materials Sciences and Technology (MTF) of the Slovak University of Technology (STU) and TRANS TECH PUBLICATIONS. The book is aimed at publishing scientific achievements on the Novel Trends in Production and Systems as well as at enhancing the worldwide cooperation and recognition among young and senior academicians and/or practitioners, and specially those of the central European region. This edition has been enriched taking into account years of research and teaching activities in the field, experiences resulting from the scientific collaboration among higher education centers, e.g.: CECOL 2012, while at the same time by also counting on prestigious and disciplined scientific and organizing committees respectively, who made a strong analysis of each one of the submitted papers. Some of the main topics included in the book are those related but not limited to Mechanical and Machine Designs, Machining Tools, Trends in Production Devices and Systems, Production Logistics, Flexible/Intelligent Manufacturing Systems and Cells, Robotics and Automation, Rapid Prototyping, Trends in Applied Mechanics and Materials, Maintenance, New Teaching and Research Approaches, among others.

The current volume of the Solid State Phenomena contains some new results in mechatronic systems, mechanics and materials, as well as in aspects of automatics and robotics in relevant technological applications. Therefore, the book is divided into three main chapters: mechatronics, automatics and robotics, and it contains the latest theoretical and practical experiences of scientists and researchers from universities and research centers. The main objective of this volume is the dissemination of the scientific knowledge to better understanding of widely considered mechatronic and material systems. Moreover, the aim of the issue is to interconnect diverse scientific fields and exchange current views between scientists and researchers. The Editors would like to express their appreciation to the Authors for their valuable contributions published in this volume, as well as to the Reviewers for excellent work, which helped us select the papers contained in the issue.We hope that the volume will be a source of knowledge and inspiration for scientists, researchers and practitioners working in the fields of interest covered by the book.
