This article analyzes the improvement of automated control systems for heating boilers based on mechatronic technologies. Modern heating systems require high energy efficiency, operational reliability, automatic monitoring, and intelligent control mechanisms. Traditional boiler control methods often lead to excessive fuel consumption, unstable temperature regulation, and increased maintenance costs. The research proposes a mechatronic-based automated control architecture integrating sensors, programmable logic controllers (PLC), microcontrollers, actuators, and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies for optimizing boiler performance. The study evaluates the effectiveness of real-time temperature monitoring, pressure stabilization, adaptive fuel regulation, and fault diagnostics within industrial and residential heating environments. Experimental analysis demonstrates that the implementation of mechatronic technologies significantly improves thermal efficiency, reduces energy losses, enhances safety indicators, and minimizes human intervention. Furthermore, the proposed system supports predictive maintenance and remote monitoring functions, contributing to sustainable energy management and smart industrial automation practices.
