Robotics & Material Handling

PRE-REQUISITE

Precision Machining Methods None

DESCRIPTION This course introduces the students to the theories and basic programming fundamentals of the Computerized Numerical Controlled Mill process.

An increasing number of companies are turning to robotics as a means for increased production. Robots have an impressive range of applications, from "pick and place" for packaging, to welding, painting, or inspecting parts immediately after a process. However, robots are not foolproof; they require effective preventive maintenance to ensure they operate at full capacity. If a robot malfunctions, an experienced maintenance professional must know how to troubleshoot the exact cause.These robotics classes cover the major components of industrial robots, the common applications for robots, and axis movement. Later classes address vision systems, effective preventive maintenance for robots, as well as common causes of robot failure along with the ways to identify those causes.

CLASS NAME Jig and Fixture Design CNC Lathe Theory & Programming

Industrial Blueprint Reading

PRE-REQUISITE Intermediate Blueprint/GD&T CNC Mill Theory & Programming

None

DESCRIPTION This course helps the student develop a thorough understanding and working knowledge of how and why jigs and fixtures are designed and built as they are. To do this the discussion starts with the fundamentals of jigs and fixtures and works through the various elements and considerations of design. Two fundamental tool design principles are constantly stressed: simplicity and economy. Design sketching is used to allow the student to demonstrate an understanding of the theories presented.

This course introduces the students to the theories and basic programming fundamentals of the Computerized Numerical Controlled Lathe process.

This course will provide the student with a working knowledge and understanding of a variety of mechanical blueprints. Students will learn to recognize and identify symbols and specifications common to modern industrial blueprints. Topics will include: lines and symbols, views, form, position, title blocks, sketching, features, and sections.
