ADMF 226 - Industrial Robotics III


PREREQUISITES: ADMF 206 - Industrial Robotics II .
PROGRAM: Advanced Automation and Robotics Technology
CREDIT HOURS MIN: 3
LECTURE HOURS MIN: 2
LAB HOURS MIN: 2
DATE OF LAST REVISION: Fall 2020

Continues the study of advanced industrial automation and robotic topics including, safety, vision programming, motion programming, work cell integration, non- motion programming, and robot communications. The course will focus on project management, financial considerations pertaining to an automated work cell, and teamwork principles, as well as automated work cell design and applications where robots are used in industry. Students will also learn how to properly maintain an industrial robotic arm. This course will use lecture, lab, online simulation and programming to prepare students for C-216 Robot Systems Integration 1 Certification through Smart Automation Certification Alliance (SACA).
